Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A few months ago, I took photos to get a card I needed, so I have some of my photos left. Is it permissible for me to keep them in case of need?

Answer:
It is not permissible for you to keep the photos that are in excess of your need. Your need has ended, which was getting the card. If a dire necessity arises a second time, it is permissible for you to take photos for the sake of that necessity, but you must not keep a photo.
