What is the ruling on the images found in identity cards or driver's licenses?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Your Eminence, what is your opinion regarding the image in the identity card and the driver's license? Is it permissible to keep it, and is it permissible to do without it if a person can?
The Shaykh : My opinion regarding the images in identity cards, driver's licenses, and banknotes is that this is a widespread affliction and it is not possible to get rid of it. Therefore, there is no blame on the person in this matter. And if Allah knows from his intention that he is averse to this, then no sin attaches to him, without a doubt.
