Instagram Is Making You Relapse, Akhi

Instagram Is Making You Relapse, Akhi

Let’s be real—Instagram is a trap.

It’s designed to keep you scrolling, keep you distracted, and worst of all—keep you falling into the same cycle of sin.

Ever noticed how, out of nowhere, you see a half-dressed woman pop up on your Explore page? You didn’t ask for it. You weren’t even looking for it. But there it is, pulling your gaze, triggering your desires, and inviting you down a path you swore you’d avoid.

This isn’t random. It’s a calculated marketing strategy. And Muslim men are falling right into it.

How Women Are Trapping Muslim Men

These women aren’t just posting for fun. They are baiting you.

Their goal? To lure you into their funnel and turn your weakness into their profit.

Here’s how it works:

1️⃣ Step One: The Hook – They upload seductive photos or videos, often appearing on your Explore page or as a "suggested follow." Even if you don’t follow them, Instagram pushes this content toward you based on its algorithm.

2️⃣ Step Two: The Curiosity Trap – Their captions are vague but suggestive: “You know where to find me 😉” or “Check my link for more 🔥”. This plays with your curiosity—and before you know it, you're clicking on their profile.

3️⃣ Step Three: The Bio Funnel – The real trap is in their bio. There, they place a link to external websites—usually OnlyFans or similar platforms where they monetize explicit content. Some even have Telegram or private Snapchat links where they promise "exclusive" access.

4️⃣ Step Four: The Addiction Cycle – Once you take the bait, the cycle begins. One click leads to another. Your brain gets flooded with dopamine. You feel guilty but can’t stop. The addiction deepens, and before long, you’re right back in the same pit you were trying to escape.

This isn’t just happening to random guys. Muslim men—practicing brothers, even those who pray and seek knowledge—are getting caught in this trap daily.

Instagram’s Algorithm Is Not on Your Side

Think about this: If you watch one video of a scholar giving a reminder, Instagram might show you some Islamic content. But the moment you pause on something inappropriate—even for a second—the algorithm picks up on it.

Now, your feed starts flooding with more of the same. Before long, your entire browsing experience is polluted.

This isn’t a coincidence. Instagram’s algorithm is designed to keep you hooked.

And what’s the fastest way to hook a man? Women.

This is why so many men struggle with relapsing—because the triggers are everywhere. You don’t even have to search for haram content; it finds you.

So What’s the Solution?

If you’re serious about quitting haram videos, you need to cut off the source of the problem.

🚨 Unfollow accounts that lead you down this path – Even if they seem harmless at first.

🚨 Stop exploring random content – The more you browse, the more you expose yourself to triggers.

🚨 Consider deleting Instagram – If it keeps leading you to sin, ask yourself: Is this app really worth my akhirah?

🚨 Strengthen your connection with Allah – More Quran, more salah, more productive habits. Fill your time with purpose, and you won’t have space for distraction.

🚨 Get a proven strategy to quit – Willpower alone isn’t enough. You need a step-by-step plan to break free—one rooted in the Quran and Sunnah.

Are you going to keep falling for the trap, or are you going to fight back? The choice is yours.
