Q: I have met a Christian friend over Facebook 3 years ago and we are now close friends, even best friends. I have tried to convince him to become a Muslim but no results. I am a girl and Muslim and my friend is a boy and Christian. Isn't this haram?
A: This relationship is haram. In Islam it is impermissible for a non-mahram male and female to be in contact or to have a casual relationship with each other. Apart from this being impermissible, this type of contact generally leads to many wrongs and sins taking place. You should sincerely repent to Allah Ta'ala and immediately sever all contact with this person. Similarly, you should make a firm resolve that you will never repeat this sin in the future.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
