Hello

I edited the title a little bit so that it could be more specific about the problem and visible.

I'm sure the above solution will work but if it doesn't, then run facebook app > swipe to the right most tab > scroll below to find "app settings" > Unmark this option ---> Always open links with external browser.

Open a message with the link, you should be ask to choose an app to open the link, do you get the option to open the link on facebook?

Did the above help? If not,go to settings-apps-all,tap on 3 dots and reset app preferences.

RegepOnur1998 I got what you're trying to say although you PM'ed me to send me something but you didn't send anything

Unfortunately it's the restriction at the facebook's end. The facebook app is designed to open links you come across in the facebook app itself. It cannot be used as a complete browser like google chrome. Any link even if it is "www.facebook.com" will be opened by the chrome web browser if the link is present outside the facebook app. You could only open links using the facebook app if the links are themselves present in the facebook app. For all the links that you come across outside of facebook app, chrome is the only option. 

I hope my post was clear
