The Ruling on Photography for Memories and Exchanging Photos
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Answer:
All photos that have become a dire necessity, such as those for the memory card, the memory of the people, or the personal ID card, or the driver's license, are permissible only to the extent of that necessity. As for anything beyond that, such as photography for memories, exchanging photos, or anything else, this is forbidden. This is especially so if it involves fitnah (trial, discord or temptation), such as a woman looking at a photo of a man with a look of desire, or a man looking at a photo of a woman with a look of desire. This adds to the prohibition, because it becomes a means to what is forbidden. Yes.
