Are pictures are allowed in Islam?

Pictures of non-animate objects (e.g. tree, flower, etc.) are permissible in Islam. All pictures of animate objects are impermissible in Islam. For further details refer to our book "Photography & Modern Challenges".

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
