A religious scholar and Islamic cleric has sent a warning to Nigerians on Facebook, saying it is a sin in the sight of God to take pictures and share it on social media.

The man identified as Abiona Taofeek Altruist also asked people guilty of this to repent and turn back to Allah.

His post reads

"May Allah bless those brothers and sisters who have not for once uploaded their pictures on social media, and may He soften the heart of those stubborn people who are so fond of doing it. Just stop capturing a picture, it’s indéed a great sin. Repent now and turn back to Your Lord[Allah]. May Allah forgive our shortcomings, give us the best understanding of His Deen[Islam] and preserve us upon sunnah and goodness."
