The Ruling on the One Who Is Photographed in the Texts of Warning

The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah reward you. We see that all the hadiths forbidding image-making, which contain warnings, are specific to the image-maker. Does this include the one who is photographed, and how is that?

The Shaykh:
How is the one who is photographed? The one who is photographed is nothing, I mean, the image of the one who is photographed is nothing, or the one who is photographed, that is what I mean. So, who does it include?

The questioner:
The one who is photographed.

The Shaykh:
If the one who is photographed gives permission, then he is the one who made his own image. If he goes to the studio and says, "Photograph me," then he is the one who made his own image; he is called the image-maker, because this is by his command and his consent.

The presenter:
We say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah reward you. What comes out for your Eminence, other than what?

The Shaykh:
I mentioned to you the necessary images; these have now become necessary, yes.
