Is it safe to use TOR browser as i heard it is a dark web browser where hackers can hack our credentials and information ?
Using tor browser has nothing to do with Dark net. Good people use it to protect their privacy. You can use VPN as well.

Hacking your credential has nothing to do with TOR browser as well.
Hacking can happen if you are not aware of the security measures that one needs to know to use internet. There are phishing attempts, pop ups, unwanted malware visiting risky sites ans some many things. Anyone can inject a piece of program and can risk your security if you are not aware about minimum required knowledge when your are browsing online.

Tor Browser is more used for the privacy purpose. If you want to protect your identity online then tor is for you. If you think that login is not secure, then you are wrong.  But you should ensure that SSL/TLS is enabled for the site where you are logging.
