This is serious concerning pictures of living beings on PC

Are we sure that a single photo of a human being, even if it is good, that it is permissible? Islam Q&A says it is permissible if it is on the PC. Is it really? Are we sure?

Islamqa says it's ok because the image is digital. But so is most music these days, but islamqa says it's not ok. So we can't be too sure, use your best judgement with good intentions. Allah knows best.

Nevertheless, we should avoid to use images on PC.

Do you have Facebook? How do you deal with that? I was thinking, when I was into 'not having pictures even on Facebook', that I scroll down or up fast to avoid pictures of living beings. It is said that when it is necessary, you can have them like those on identity documents. When I have a picture in the house, I try to hide it. There are Baby Wipes that I use, and after I use them I hide it because it has a picture of a baby. I thought, as of the moment, that my picture on Facebook is a necessity.

What other people do on fb is their personal matter, but we should avoid to post animated images.Photo in My fb profile is - 'image of green dome'
 
I know Allah is the most trustworthy of all, but this guy named Mufti Ismail Menk, who seems to know a lot about Islam, has his own picture in his page. I also watched concerning pictures on a video of his, and it seems like it's alright, as far as I know. Let us just be good. Hey people. Do not kill yourselves. Do you know I have these paranormal beings saying what's inside my mind? It's been a struggle and for some years. Imagine this on you. What would you do? Sleep is minor death. Every time we sleep, if we sleep every night, we die a minor death, so don't long for dying and killing yourself so you just remove all the hardship. The mercy of the Lord embraces all. Alhamdulillah or praise be to God. I panicked maybe two days ago, just like the other days, but now, I am wiser and better in taking care of this. I now consider them a blessing. I have an affirmation note saying that and thanking Allah, may he be glorified and exalted.
 
Scholars are never 'a role model' for me.

I always try to keep on clinging to basics.

That's your inner-monologue, not paranormal beings. We all have an inner-monologue.
 
I am now avoiding living being images on the PC. I thought, even not on Facebook, like for example, your teacher asks you to make a project, and you need images, and you forgot the law, and so you search for images, and then pictures of people come up. Or when you go to amazon to buy something to please Allah. I think we can have good intentions, and for me, I avoid pictures on Facebook. Maybe the angels go away from me when I go on Facebook. Let us have dhikr of Allah, may he be glorified and exalted, when we are on Facebook, so when an image appears, we could be patient while remembering Allah, and he is with the patient.

outcome of our actions, on the whole, depends on the intention.

If a teacher asks students who don't like to use images, to use images for a project is a different matter as it's done unwillingly under duress.
 
Aren't we one of the image-makers, like for example, if we react with a wow, and thus, making an image of something that seems to be living? Image makers will be punished as I remember.

I am sure. Maybe if you're close to me, you would hear it. I'm not lying. If you can make dua for me, I am thankful for that. I just made dua for us.
