The ruling on including a personal photo in a resume for a job

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Some companies, when you apply for a job with them, ask me to submit a resume, and to include a personal photo in it. Is this permissible?

Answer:
By Allah, you understand the ruling on this: photography in cases of dire necessity is permissible, but only to the extent of the necessity. To the extent of the necessity. If you are compelled to take this job, then only to the extent of the necessity. Yes. If you want to travel, you must have a photo taken. They give you a passport; nationality is required, so a photo is required as well. This is not out of love for photos or affection for them, but rather to achieve your pressing need. This falls under the category of dispensations. Yes.
