The Ruling on Keeping Pictures of Children
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner, or rather a female questioner, asks: Is it permissible to keep pictures of children?
Answer:
It is not permissible to keep pictures of children and raise them with pictures, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the image-makers and said, "Do not leave an image without erasing it, and do not leave a raised grave without leveling it," just as he said that to the Commander of the Faithful, 'Ali ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him). Yes.

May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
