Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
Shaykh Hisham has taught us that most “meetings” on the internet are full of danger to the believer’s wealth, spirituality and safety. You can easily look up the “company” of this person and see if it is legitimate. Ask this person hard questions and if the answers don’t add up, drop it. At the same time, learn to listen to your loved ones, they seek goodness for you, while you owe nothing to that Internet “friend”.
W ‘Allahu `alam,
