The Ruling on Photographing People with Mobile Phones in the Sacred Precinct

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We seek clarification on the ruling for those who photograph people with mobile phones in the Sacred Precinct.

Answer:
We have spoken about this several times, and we said: O people, fear Allah, be afraid of Allah. Photography is forbidden in any place, and it is more severe in the Sacred Precinct. On the Day of Resurrection, you will be tasked with bringing the images you photographed, and you will be tortured with them in the Fire of Hell. So you must fear Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He.
