The correct view is that taking photographs is not permissible, general evidence is in this direction.

[@IslamicAwareness27]

the word 'tawsir' in the hadith is about drawing pictures of living things or sculpting statues, it's totally different from photography, if video recording and mirrors are permissible then photography should be the same, you make an exact copy of a thing when you take a picture of it, you don't create anything with skills, and allaah knows best, and may he grant sheikh bin baaz firdaus.

[@ramsheedabootty3648]

So can we keep my grandfather's photograph in my house for his memory... I knew prophet has prohibited that also.. The word used there also is tasweer... So is it only for drwn pictures or for any photo? Can u clarify?

[@jlaretzkelana7379]

@@ramsheedabootty3648 Bismillah. I think U already know the answer. Photo is Picture.

[@jlaretzkelana7379]

Like our Sheikh Ibn Baaz (rahimahullah) said: “It is not permissible to picture people whether with their consent or without their consent; and if it is with their consent then the sin is greater. And pictures with souls in them are prohibited, because the Messenger of Allah (Sal Allahu aliyhi wa sallam) cursed the picture makers”

[@jlaretzkelana7379]

“I fear that Salafiyoon one day will say- Photography isn’t picture making. You just press a button.” [Silsilat ul Huda wan Nur 393]

[@jlaretzkelana7379]

“Those who say that photography is permitted have “frozen” the meaning of the word “tasweer,” restriciting it only to the meaning known at the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and not adding the meaning of photography, which is “tasweer” or “picture-making” in every sense - linguistic, legal, and in its harmful effects, and as is clear from the definition mentioned above. Years ago, I said to one of them, By the same token (way), you could allow idols which have not been carved but have been made by pressing a button on some machine that turns out idols by the dozen. What do you say to that?” (Aadaab al-Zafaaf by al-Albaani, p. 38)

[@Issa_Alkubi]

Well Shaykh Al-Uthaymeen ( may Allaah has mercy on his soul ) had a different opinion regarding taking pictures with cameras. He said what is prohibited is to edit those pictures on programs to change Allāh creation. But if there’s not alterations of those pictures then it’s ok since cameras are just capturing the image that has being created by Allāh subhanahu wa ta’ala and Allāhu a’alam.

[@DaarusSunnah]

Shaykh Uthaymeen also said it's not permissible to take pictures for memories sake e.g. hanging pictures on the wall and selfies.

What if a person argues that digital photography is not "making" an image, rather it is just "capturing" what is already physically there.

[@mehdiali1694]

It comes in 2-D photography which he mentions. So better to avoid unnecessary digital photography.

Exactly, The Camera and Pictures not even there in the Time of Prophet PBUH, it was Just Sketching which was prohibited not Pictures for sure.

You got a point! But he said that he approves now of videography which implies even photography when done for the common good. The point to ponder about is the digital nature of photography as against the physical drawing.
