Asalamualaikum,

Is it Haraam to show pictures of your wife and daughters to male non-mahram friends?
e.g. through facebook
Also, what if they're modestly dressed?
i.e. wearing the hijab and conservative traditional Islamic clothing.

Lastly, is it okay (halal) to add people of the opposite gender as friends on facebook?



Thanks!

Wa `alaykumu s-salām .

There is no doubt that putting pictures with immodest dresses as per Islam is surely forbidden. And Here are some related fatwas

Your intention really matters. Why would you want to show pictures of your wife/daughter to male non-mahrams? What are the reasons?

To share your life with others and show non-Muslims that we're all really aint that different.

No need to share just for that. Show them only for Islamic purpose by being within the parameter of Islam.
