The Ruling on Placing a Picture in the House
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We know that the ruling on placing pictures in the house is forbidden, so is it permissible to place them in the bathroom, whether they are three-dimensional or not?
Answer:
It is obligatory to obliterate pictures and destroy them, and it is not permissible to place them in the house or in the bathroom; because of the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to 'Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) :Riyad as-Salihin 1687.
But if a person is compelled to keep a picture for reasons that necessitate it, let him keep it in a concealed place, such as a box or the like, and he has no right to display it or hang it up, whether that is in the bathroom or elsewhere. And success is from Allah.

Spare no portrait unwiped out, and leave not a high grave unlevelled.
لا تدع صورة إلا طمستها ولا قبرًا مشرفًا إلا سويتهBut if a person is compelled to keep a picture for reasons that necessitate it, let him keep it in a concealed place, such as a box or the like, and he has no right to display it or hang it up, whether that is in the bathroom or elsewhere.
