What does Islam have to say about photography of inanimate objects?
Answer:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
It is permissible to take pictures of inanimate objects as long as they do not resemble anything that is used as an object of worship,[1] for example, taking the picture of a cross or an idol, etc.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
