Making pictures of Christian symbols such as the cross


427

A: Firstly, it is not permissible to take photos of crosses or any other symbol of disbelief, or to publish them in magazines and ads. The only exception is when someone intends to warn Muslims against glorifying and respecting them while ensuring that the publisher attaches a statement illustrating its falsehood.Secondly, it is not permissible to take photos of non-Muslim rituals or circulate them among Muslims because they contain acts of disbelief in Allah and His Messenger and contradict Islam. This may also attract people to them, especially those of weak faith. Furthermore, this removes the Muslim's repugnancy of disbelief; thus it must be avoided. (Part No. 1; Page No. 467) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
