Advice for one afflicted with taking pictures with a mobile phone

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is there any advice for one who is afflicted with taking pictures via a mobile phone and keeping these pictures, given that many people of good have fallen into this?

Answer:
Taking pictures by any means, whether by mobile phone or otherwise, is not permissible. The mobile phone is a camera; it takes pictures with a camera, and taking pictures is not permissible. May Allah protect you, my brother, from taking pictures. Why do you take pictures? Yes.
