Image-making for the purpose of documenting work and photographing students

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on image-making for the purpose of documenting work, knowing that this includes photographing students in schools?

Answer:
Image-making is not permissible except out of dire necessity, and this is not a dire necessity. These are appearances and memories, and there may be showing off in them and seeking attention, so image-making is not permissible.
