Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on hanging pictures of officials in offices, and what is the ruling if a person is forced to do so? Does he obey?
Answer:
You know the answer to this: it is not permissible to hang pictures at all. Hanging pictures on walls is not permissible at all in any place; this is forbidden. And no people have been destroyed except because they hung pictures of their scholars and great men, and the matter ended in their worship of them, and the punishment that befell them came upon them.
