                                                                          /
                  The  marginal  number  who  surfs  the  Islamic  websites
               are not formal way members of a particular Institution for

               the Islamic education. It has been however found out that
               many  get  fatwas  /queries  online  or  through  the  official

               websites of Islamic jurisprudents.
                  One of the factors which is responsible for not being a
               regular student of any Islamic educational website may be
               due to the fact that the internet facility is very irregular in
               the state due to conflicting conditions.
                  People  are  not  sure  that  they  can  continuously  go  on
               doing  course  online,  other  wise  youth  are  aware  about
               many  such  courses  which  are  provided  by  different
               Institutions  /universities  such  as  Almustafa  Open
               university.
                  It is a fact that even courses other than Islamic studies
               provided  online  are  not  commonly  done  there  due  to
               technical reasons as mentioned earlier.
                  The  abuse  of  IT  as  mentioned  above  is  misuse  by
               mankind.  People  use  it  for  criminal  activities  same  way
               religious  disharmony  is  caused  due  to  it.  The  confusion
               caused  by  the  persons  with  little  knowledge  is  also
               possible.
                  Some  people  make  fake  fatwas,  fake  lectures,  fake
               pictures and create wrong information about each other. It
               is  therefore  necessary  to  prevent  hacking  of  websites.
               Tools  for  preventing  wrong  information  are  necessary.
               Some  international  laws  may  be  devised  for  preventing
               the misuse of the cyber sites of all kind.
