It is very annoying practice that has become very common to check in other’s cell phone specially nowadays it starts in early dating, the temptation to “go through” someone’s phone to see who they are texting, who they receive calls from and what apps they frequently use. Emails, text messages, social media messages and recorded voicemails are sources of information that may help a spouse to put a blame on another of wrong doing and bad activity.
In Islam marriage is a legal contract between two people which is considered integral to a religiously valid Islamic marriage both the groom and the bride are to consent to the marriage of their own free wills. We must be respectful towards each other and protect each other rights and well being and not to spy on each other cell phones.
The married mobile phones can defame you and hurt your self esteem and respect that you gain after so much work and effort because communication can never ever be perfect it is always subject to noise and barriers in one way to another. The information we send and receive can be suspicious in one’s opinion and damage the relationship. Never breach your personal mobile data security on request of any person including your close friend, spouse like your passwords, your last most sensitive talk with your colleague and message and call records and don’t give him/her a chance to spy on you. Stay away from your cell phone whenever you are busy in household chores ,this will make your relationship more strong and trustworthy. The trust building phase in a relationship takes time so never allow your spouse to get uncomfortable with your cell phone. Sticking all the time with mobile and texting makes other feel as if you are married to a mobile phone not a man or women.
Recently Saudi Government announced the law that will punish spouses in the case of illegally spying on each other’s phone and will add it to crimes related to information technology. If the information obtained through electronic means of communication, the penalty then is one year in prison and a fine of 500, 000 riyals ($133,000).This step is appreciable because we should respect each other security and information.
We should trust each other because it is the first step of a successful relationship so be loyal with the person whole heartedly whom you are going to start a new life with, It is very necessary otherwise your life will become a nightmare. We should give time, space and respect to each other and should not lose patience if there is any misunderstanding occurs.
