The Ruling on Working in a Photography Studio

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I work for the owner of a photography studio, and there is no other work available. The price of the small photos is not enough to meet the needs of the household. What is the solution? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
The solution is that you do not work in the studio; stay away from it, because photography is forbidden, and Allah will provide for you from another source.
And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way outوَمَن يَتَّقِ اللَّهَ يَجْعَل لَّهُ مَخْرَجًا
[At-Talaq 65:2]
,
And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him of his matter ease.وَمَن يَتَّقِ اللَّهَ يَجْعَل لَّهُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ يُسْرًا
[At-Talaq 65:4]
, and do not be with the photographers, nor with the writers of riba (usury or interest), nor with the people of sins. Do not assist them in their sins. Allah says
but do not cooperate in sin and aggression. And fear Allahوَلَا تَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْإِثْمِ وَالْعُدْوَانِ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ
[Al-Ma'idah 5:2]
safety.
