**DAMMAM: An Alkhobar woman studying in the United States is taking credit for destroying 23 Danish websites that denigrated the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), Al-Madinah newspaper reported on Thursday.
**
Nouf Rashid told the Arabic newspaper she was hacking into Danish websites having references to cartoons of the Prophet along with other sites that had questionable content in her view.
She said she had also destroyed a number of pornographic sites and hacked into the computer systems of young men who had tried to blackmail girls by threatening to publish their private photos. She gained expertise in the field out of a desire to learn new things in the IT field.
Nouf said she entered the hacking world to save a girl who was being blackmailed by a young man who wanted to marry her and had obtained a private photo of her. The victim’s friend had requested Nouf to look for a hacker in the US to save her from the man.
“In fact, I contacted some of my hacker friends at university and I learned from them the art of hacking,” she said.
“After this, I took the opportunity to save many women from youths who tried to blackmail them using their pictures. By the grace of God I was able to hack into their systems and erase most of their photos.”
Nouf said she had hacked into some of the Danish websites that denigrated the Prophet and shut them down. “I also sent messages and articles about Islam and the Prophet to those who managed those sites,” she pointed out.
Nouf urged girls to be cautious when using the Internet and not to open any suspicious e-mails. “We should take adequate protective measures. When doing computer maintenance, we should approach companies and individuals whom they can trust, because some workers in maintenance centers plant viruses that can spy on their clients,” she said.

Mashallah many respects to the sister for using her education and tech skills to help others and for the deen may allah(swt) reward her greatly for this**
**Islamically, you can NOT do any illegal act to help/support Islam…it’s indeed a criminal act…what if she is arrested, sent to jail where guards misbehave with her…apni izzat apne haath…all muslims could have protested and sought legal action against that site. **TWO wrongs do NOT make a right!
do you have islamic evidence to prove the sister did illegal act because she defended islam and women who where being taken advantage of by some dirty men.
YES, she gained access to an area [even in cyberspace] that she wasn’t entitled and/or permission to enter…she was kinda ‘break N enter’ thief…would you like if someone violated your personal cyberspace?
w salaam…no, i do NOT have any…i use common sense. i do NOT have to look for ayat in the Qur’aan to know that accessing a forbidden place [virtual or real] is a SIN…a grave sin! you may have whatever opinion you may wanna hold on to. i said wat i had to say…i do NOT engage in meaningless arguments…EVER! thank you.
Then you shouldn’t make such comments. She didn’t steal anyone’s personal information, harmed any one by stopping the hatred. We love our Prophet and I for one will support all Muslims trying to defend our religion against these baseless and unwarranted attacks.
it’s NOT my opinion…it’s Islamic teaching…i mentioned the Islamic definition of THEFT…you may NOT believe it OR accept it…it’s your responsibility to find out for yourself if you are NOT satisfied…i’m satisfied so i’m NOT gonna waste my time here. Allah Haafiz
**is Islam NOT common sense? you tell me what’s the definition of theft and intrusion in Islam? i can NOT spend all my day looking for references to everything i say…don’t you know damaging something that does NOT belong to you is a SIN/CRIME? if YES, she is a criminal no matter how noble the cause was. it’s an aarestable crime. i’m NOT gonna argue with you because i can NOT convince you…my intention is never to convince anyone who doesn’t want to understand. this is my last post in this regard…you are FREE to believe whatever you wish to believe…Allah Haafiz **
this is the kind of intelligent sister which the muslim countries need to invest in and utilise now and in future. at the time of the prophet(saw) he used latest military tactics and weapons today there is new battle opening up via computers.
america, china and russia all have government army of cyber hackers
