Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I have a picture of the Makkah Haram, and the Ka'bah appears in it, with people circumambulating around it, and their faces are not visible. Is it permissible for me to hang it up to show reverence for the House of Allah?

Answer:
It is not permissible to hang up the Ka'bah. It is not permissible. What is the reason for hanging up the Ka'bah? Even if there is no one in it, it is not permissible.
