Social and political behaviour relies much on communication. However in Islamic teaching, these human to human behaviours need to comply with the al-Quran and Sunnah that will be realized as adab and akhlaq or in other words ethics. This human to human relationship is founded by human to Allah relationship that will give rise to ibadah and taqwa. In Islam , privacy of another person is held in high respect. One should not pry in another person personal life or space because it is considered unethical thus not a good sign of taqwa. In the digital world, with the advancement of Internet that gave birth to social network, ethics, privacy and security is important concern. This study looks at privacy and security from the Islamic perspectives. A survey was conducted with 200 social network users using snowball sampling to find put their awareness of privacy and security related issues on social network. The study showed that majority of users are not aware even some do not even bother on the privacy and security issues. Thus, a user oriented privacy model was proposed that will protect users information by default unless the user set it otherwise. It will give more control to users on what to share on the social media with the public. (Retrieved from the article)
