The Ruling Of Photography & Video - Shaykh Sulayman Ar-Ruhayli (Simple Explanation)

[@AdamChenWei]

Seems it can be s good idea to disable comment to avoid unnecessary fitnah.... My dear brother who uploaded the beneficial video. BarakAllaahu Fikum

[@tapor111]

For those in comment section who ask the same question over and over again: If you do not have the ability to watch the complete video and understand everything what sheikh says, or have watched it but didn't find an answer to your question, then you should know that you did not reach the level of an sensible person.

Good thing I mostly take pictures of trains and buildings in various cities nowadays - taking selfies was getting old anyway (got some shots of great architecture in cities like Manchester, Riyadh, Liverpool, Leeds, Paris, Makkah, Madinah, Sheffield, London, etc.) and I have a whole Instagram account dedicated to train photography based in the UK

[@ghanemkanj2277]

Ayman Ilham, u still have your selfi up

[@AymanTravelTransport]

@@ghanemkanj2277 I've changed it now, despite the fact I'm generally lenient towards photography due to the legit difference in opinion, although I do acknowledge that the stronger opinion with most people of Sunnah (including the Shaykh in the video, may Allah preserve him) is that it is not exempt from the ruling of tasweer due to generality of the texts so better to be avoided

[@mufidasshiddiq2279]

You have no idea.

[@bossmedia4028]

They need to seriously catch up and advise on the current culture. Most people take pictures to post online not make actual physical copies of the images. If the image requires a device to see it is it really a traditional picture? Wouldn’t it be the same as a video? And what if you draw people and things with souls digitally again for use and viewing strictly on devices is that haram too?

[@falsesectslikeshiaarejudeo6543]

Shaykh Albani Rahimahullah said it beautifully, if pictures are there angels don't enter, so who enters? shaytan... Omar calls to pictures, yasir calls to shirk ibada of birthdays and the term happy birth is historically a term of sihr calling to jinns. Both Omar & Yasir are innovators callers to shaytan & sihr, and to Allah's anger away from blessings and protection. sell out ikwani marxists who follow salman al oudah. using birthdays rooted in shirk when we have Aqiqahs is like (somewhat) saying good friday/ happy easter to martyrs who may have died fighting that corrupt shirk & when we don't wash their bodies hoping their blood will smell like Musk on judgement day. We reject both the idol and the tradition linked to the idol unless its founded in Islam and from a previous Prophet. thats it! We reject the idol and the idol worship even if its just as a custom per Surah Kafirun, we reject other's din. Just like there is no God worthy of worship other then Allah, we reject the worship of other gods as well including as customs as thats the ladder half of shirk and can lead to it like the ppl who forgot about what the images were for in Nuh alehas Salam's time! And images were the former or base part of the shirk shame on Yasir and Umar! Then theres plenty of hadith on how the picture maker (of faces - or other creatures with souls) is punished! Also making of pictures can prevent lowering of the gaze. Shaykh Muqbil's points that a curtain image is not like an idol but yet it was still rejected prove omar wrong as well!

[@jeilanyilyas6321]

Sheikh omar is not what you are claiming him to be

[@abdixsimplix2582]

Maybe if it photos are taken for the sake of being an artist then it is haram, otherwise if it is for passports and ID then no problem. Allah knows our intentions BTW.

[@falsesectslikeshiaarejudeo6543]

having shirki customs without idols are bad because ppl can look it up and think shirk is ok. we know with ignorance these customs take place of shirk because of shia and sufi grave worshippers raising graves, making pictures, and incorporating foriegn ibadah to add to their shirk!

[@ITPandas]

What about KZbinr? Who make videos on information technology (knowledge base)? For them also it is haram?

[@SamiMuktar]

ITPandas0011 the shiekh said videos are not haram and you wont be sining if you were to do them because the sharia doesn’t forbid it but it is close to photography so just stay away from it if it is possible but somethings you can’t avoid because life happens so try your best to implement the deen of Allah and inshallah He will guide you

[@abunusaybah4165]

And what are videos other than frames of many photos causing motion? I find it inconsistent ..if you believe photos to be haraam then many many photos in successive frames i.e. video should be haram in your opinion too? Although as a disclaimer, not prescribing to these man invented opinions.. NONE BUT ALLAH HAS THE RIGHT TO DECLARE SOMETHING LAWFUL OR UNLAWFUL..

[@sonyaevans2293]

No, it's not to be thought in that way. If I need to make a prayer tutorial, then what? Is it haram? What if somebody has no body to teach him Islam and the prayer in his area or close to it, what is the ruling on Islamic videos who teach prayer in that case? If photos are taken for the sake of art and the like then yes, it is haram, but for the videos I thino that it is not haram.

[@ziyadshafeek]

Al halal bayyin Wal Al haram bayyin. In my opinion, photography is not prohibited and has not come upon any hadith that do so. However excess of anything is not good. Taking thousands of photos in weddings and parties are all waste of time for those who take photos and also for the viewers.

[@SamiMuktar]

Ziyad Shafeek we aren’t allowed to have an opinion when we are ignorant. These scholars study the religion their whole life and some one like us want to come and have an opinion. Opinions should be knowledge based not just mere opinions. And yes there is a hadith regarding taking pictures.

[@Diamondraw4Real]

@@SamiMuktar *making pictures is mentioned. But yes there's good reason to not exaggerate in photography.

[@AntiZionist101]

The correct opinion is , that Photography is not Haram. Dr. Fareed Al Ansiri al Maghribi explains this: There are 2 objections to Photography; 1. Trying to imitate the creation of Allah. 2. Shirk or Idolatry. So let us deal with the first one, there is no copying the creation of Allah because the camera is not able to create anything, all it does is reflect with a mirror, the camera has a mirror inside it to capture the scene ( nature or whatever ) on its own it is not able to create anything. Only Allah is the creator. Also, the Shaykh is not knowledgeable in this regard. If camera were to be Haram, than the camera that filmed him in this clip would also be Haraam. And looking in the mirror would also be Haraam. Going to the hospital to make an Echo would also be Haraam. So please, use your brain. Instead of listening to foolish fatwas of people who have no knowledge in this regard. This is called Tahqeeq Al Manaat .. to have knowledge of the reality. So when it comes to Fiqh, people must have knowledge in this regard which the Shaykh does not have. Also, what happens scientifically inside a camera , in all its forms, is not Tasweer ( Image creation ) rather it reflects the image! Therefore the correct term is 'Aakis (image-reflector ) and not Musawwir ( Image creator ) because only Allah is Al-Musawwir. So the ones who forbid this ( which are many of the Huffaaz and Fuqaha ) should also then forbid looking in the mirror, because the principle is exactly the same. What happened here is that unfortunately many of the scholars have misunderstood the essence of Photography. Some scholars are very huge scholars in their fields, but they have zero knowledge of Modern technologies. May Allah guide those who forbid Photography. Second Objection is Shirk. This is possible, that is why the Islamic ruling states that Pictures should not be hung on a wall or in a high place, to exalt in in this manner is Haraam.

[@96muslimgirl]

Anti Zionist many scholars misunderstood the essence of photography? i think scholars know much better... and there is a difference of opinion as stated in the video.

[@gcsparts]

Anti Zionist yes the world was waiting for you my dear shaikh . How could the scholars have been so ignorant . I suggest you open your eyes and ears and listen to the advice and answer once again infact a few times maybe you will realise what this shaikh is saying and understand. Ur the ignorant one for not even listening or comprehending what was said

[@callertoallaahexaltedmosth8075]

Assalamualaikum..Don't Give Fatwa as unable & not allowed anyway.

[@zaheidiqbal1]

@@96muslimgirl yes but unfortunately atharee scholars always take a longer time to come round. So initially pictures were haraam 100 percent but slowly issues like video recordings for halaqas, Ids, etc have made a lot of scholars evolve their stance. I prefer to err on the Conservative opinion but sometimes it is a little silly. Photo haraam but lots of photos halaal. Some salafee brothers follow their scholars blindly at tines without engaging their intellect.
