I would like to start this post with this beautiful quote by
Edward Snowden

In the lives we are living today, we do not respect each other's privacy, which, in my opinion, is a very bad thing. No matter what, privacy is a significant part of our lives. Modernization has almost eliminated privacy

We have started interfering so much in each other's lives that privacy no longer exists. I clearly remember that in the old days, people used to respect each other's privacy. In our religion, Islam, great emphasis is placed on this as well. We are advised not to build our walls so low that the neighbours' houses are visible, and not so high that the air flowing towards the neighbours' houses is blocked.

These teachings are an important part of our religion, and we must adhere to them.

Similarly, respecting others' privacy is also very important. I know that nowadays, people ask each other such inappropriate questions that make no sense. Let me give you a small example of this. Whether a couple has a child or not is a personal matter between them, but our women keep bothering a girl who is unable to have children by constantly asking her about it. Let me ask one thing, is having children or not in our hands? And secondly, whether two people want to have children or not is their own choice. What right does anyone else have to ask them about it? This issue is especially common among women, and women are the most affected by this intrusion. I have seen women go into depression because of this.

I feel angry with those women who ask such private questions to another woman. We also have another common issue: people asking about the wedding night. After the wedding night, women ask the bride about her experience, and shockingly, even men inquire about it. This makes me extremely angry. No matter how much you care for someone, asking such personal questions is completely inappropriate and against all principles of privacy.

I also understand that we humans get so attached to each other that we often overlook the importance of privacy. Sometimes, we feel that there is nothing between two people that should be kept private. However, this intimacy and affection can sometimes be harmful. Therefore, we should always respect each other’s privacy and never overstep our boundaries.
