Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If the magazine was established to promote forbidden things, then it is not permissible to work for it. However, if it is for permissible matters and includes some forbidden things, then it is permissible to work for it, provided your work is not related to the forbidden. As for photography, it is permissible to photograph that which has no soul. If your work involves photographing living beings, then it is not permissible unless the facial features are obscured.
