The answer

Photographing a woman who is immodestly adorned is a reprehensible and forbidden act. Whoever does this must repent, and these photographs must be destroyed. If they refuse, then you have fulfilled your obligation. These individuals must fear Allah and adhere to His law. It is not permissible to mock Allah's law or belittle those who adhere to it, as this could lead to disbelief. It is not permissible for a woman to uncover her in front of adult non- men or those approaching puberty. Regretting past actions is sincere repentance. The prayer of an oppressed person against their oppressor is permissible, but forgiveness is better, especially with in-laws.
