Hi, assalamu alaikum.
December is here. 2020 is going to leave soon insha Allah. What have you got? I hope you've got a lot.
This year has been so special. Many of us have to stay at home and do our stuffs from home.
I have a friend who runs her business from home. She posts on Whats App statuses to offer some goods. She's also a tailor. She sells many things from house hold stuffs to her skill.
One day she posted a pre-wed photography service. Is she also a photographer? No. She offers her friend's skill.
She uploaded some portofolios of her friend's and added some captions for them.
It was, "A better pre-wed photo for you. No holding hands, no hugging."
I replied to her, " Pre-wed photography is not legit in Islam. Post-wed is."
I knew this would be a long discussion but I care about her. I don't want her to make money from haram services.
She replied, "But here the couples don't hold their hands. We keep spaces between them."
"Still," I replied. "They still stay alone even in photos."
A hadith said, " No man is alone with a woman but the third one present is the shaytan." (At-Tirmidzi)
And, "No man should be alone with a woman except there is a mahram with her." (Bukhari and Muslim.
Anything that leads to bad deed is haram in Islam. That's why pre-wed photography illegal in Islam. If we really need stunning photos of a couple, why don't we do a post-wed photography with concept? That's much better and halal.
