The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it permissible for me to attend a wedding feast, knowing that they will be taking pictures, and there will be image-making, but in a private place, not in front of the people and the attendees?
The Shaykh:
And the work.

He says: Is it permissible for me to attend a wedding feast, knowing that there will be image-making, but it is not in front of the people and the attendees?
The Shaykh:
If you know about the image-making, it is not permissible for you to do this, because you have consented to it and have not forbidden it. So do not attend except on the condition that they prevent the image-making.
