Does photographing beings with souls using a mobile phone and keeping them on the phone fall under the prohibition?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does keeping images of beings with souls that were taken via a mobile phone on the phone itself fall under the prohibition?

Answer:
Yes, it falls under the prohibition. Everything that fixes images and preserves them is forbidden, whether on a mobile phone, on paper, or on a wall. All of this is the forbidden, cursed image-making that its doer is cursed for. Yes.
