The answer

The wife must dispose of the pictures if the husband requests it, and she can destroy them without considering her family's anger. If she is unable to do so, or if disposing of them leads to a greater harm, then the husband should excuse her. There is no danger if the pictures fall into the hands of the children; the matter is easy as long as the pictures are kept away from the hands of non- men.
