Praying in a room with pictures hanging on the walls

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the ruling on praying in a room where photographic pictures are hanging on the walls?

Answer:
This is disliked. If he prays facing the picture, this is forbidden. He should not face the picture, because this resembles those who worship pictures. As for if he prays and there is no picture in front of him, but it is in the room, this is disliked.
