would it permissable to conduct a class via video broadcast (distance learning) to students in another city?
Question
In some cities in North America there is a shortage of ulama who can offer classes in the english langauge on subjects such as fiqh, arabic, etc. Due to this situation, would it permissable to conduct a class via video broadcast (distance learning) to students in another city?
Answer
Video broadcasting is Tasweer and picture making which is expressly prohibited in the Hadith.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
