If you go to a place and there is image-making in it, is it obligatory for you to leave this place?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: If you go to a place and there is image-making in it, is it obligatory for you to leave this place and not sit in it?

Answer:
If you disapprove of them and they refuse, then you remain in the place. But if they do not accept, you leave the place. And now, unfortunately, image-making has become common in weddings; it has become common in weddings now. They bring the children, and each one has a camera and takes pictures. And attending wedding celebrations has come to include wrongs that you cannot remove, so do not attend them. Honorable Shaykh. They have image-making with them, and even the whole calamity now. Yes.
