Filming the bride with video cameras
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, recently it has become widespread to film the bride with video cameras.
Answer:
This is wrong. This is among the wrongdoings that, if one knows of it and is able to prevent or change it, he should go and do so. If he is not able, he must refrain, and the women must also refrain. The women must refrain from attending the filming, because this is an obvious wrong. These people have no morals and no modesty. They film the bride and they film the groom, and the groom enters in front of the women and sits on a platform, and perhaps he kisses his wife in front of the women, or in front of the women and the men. This is among the terrible wrongdoings. But these people have no morals, no integrity, and no religion to protect them from these matters. This is a departure from the manners of Islam. Yes.
