Wahhabis Say Photographs are Haram
بِسۡمِ
ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
Many Wahhabi scholars,
such as Muhammad Swalih al-Munajjid and Swalih ibn Fawzan al-Fawzan, are of the
opinion that taking photographs is haram
regardless. Swalih al-Fawzan even said
that any Muslim who teaches otherwise will be severely punished on the Day of
Judgement, so he is confident enough to damn any scholar who has a different
opinion from his. And of course, when he
said that, it was recorded, on video.
The reason these Wahhabis say we cannot take pictures is because it is
akin to “making images” and “imitating creation”. But somehow, videos, which are moving
pictures, and even more lifelike, are not haram. But then, if they had any logic, they would
not be Wahhabis; they would be Muslims.
All those who have been saying photos are haram say, "Cheese!"
