The answer

It is permissible to copy tweets, posts, and videos if their content is free from শরীয়াহ-based prohibitions and their owners have not forbidden copying them. It is forbidden to copy anything that contains শরীয়াহ-based prohibitions or if its owners have forbidden copying it, because intellectual property rights are protected for their owners. A Muslim should intend by this to benefit people and spread good, not to increase followers for boasting and and showing off.
