The Ruling on Television Filming

Question:
Television filming?

Answer:
It falls under this category. It may be said that, given the great benefit, it is preferred over the image itself, based on the principle of avoiding the greater of two harms by committing the lesser. It may be compared to filming workers in factories, or things that Muslims need, through which they receive guidance. It may be said that this is a matter of education, and the filming involved is excused for the sake of a greater benefit in learning things of importance.
As for filming women, or filming so-and-so and so-and-so for superstitions and movies, this is not a valid legal excuse. This is not an excuse. In industries, in medicine, and the like, some scholars consider it permissible based on committing the lesser of two harms.
As for expanding this in lessons, or on television, or elsewhere, I do not know of any reason that would make it permissible; because they have expanded in this without a valid legal excuse.
