Videography for Living Beings Fatwa No: 401428
- Fatwa Date:23-7-2019
Assalamu'alaikum, do you know whether sheikh shalih al fawzan permitted non live videography for beings with soul? Jazakallahi khairan.
All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.
We are not aware of any Fatwa from Shaykh Al-Fawzaan regarding videos of living beings, whether recorded videos or live broadcasting. However, Shaykh Ibn 'Uthaymeen issued a Fatwa permitting it.
Since you write to us in Arabic sometimes, please refer to our Arabic website to read the view of Shaykh 'Uthaymeen regarding this issue. The Fatwa is available under this number 110405.
Allah Knows best.
