Can I take selfies on Hajj?

Imam Suhaib discusses taking selfies along with the broader question of pictures.

Question:
Over the last few days, people criticized me for posting my Hajj selfies. What is your opinion about this?
Answer:
That is a sad question, and I find it strange that people have the time to look at other people’s pictures and criticize them. With that being said, I will address this issue from four perspectives:
  1. Are pictures forbidden?
  2. Principles for understanding texts.
  3. The importance of collective good.
  4. Intentions should be left to Allah alone.
