Question

My sister's 3 month old child passed away. Is she allowed to keep his digital (NOT PRINTED) pictures and videos on her phone? And is she allowed to see them.

Answer

For her good and the good of the child all of this must be deleted.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Ask Mufti Online

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.
