The ruling on photographing an image for a work ID card out of necessity
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Excellency the Shaykh, a questioner says: Is attaching a photo to a work ID card like a photo on a license or an ID card in terms of necessity?
Answer:
Yes, if a person cannot obtain a job, a position, a study, travel, a driver’s license, or a personal ID card to carry with him except with a photo—that is, out of necessity—it is permissible to take a photo, because necessity turns the prohibited into permissible. What was forbidden to you has become excused. This is necessary. If people were to refrain from their interests and their work. Yes.
