Pictures

[Muslimah999]

Asalaamualaikum
I would like to know what are the Islamic views regarding taking pictures with a camera. I would also like you to see this video by Abu Musaab regarding this topic. Although I would like to agree to everything he said, the whole concept of pictures taken by camera being haraam worries me. Is that true?

JazakAllah

I too was a bit startled when I watched the lecture, but it is something I knew was correct, the brother just opened my eyes to it, alhamdulillah.

It is better for you, I think, to go to the following sites and search for fatwas regarding pictures and photos there. I would trust them better than myself to answer you

You will find your answers, inshAllah
