Q: I’m a first time mother. Together with my husband, we have decided not to take pictures of our baby or let anyone else as well. We ourselves don’t take pictures/videos of each other.

I love how my infant looks now and how she looked as a baby MashaAllah TabarkAllah , but as she’s growing, I’m forgetting all of that and it makes me sad. I haven’t felt very tempted to take a picture but sometimes I look down and feel bittersweet; feeling grateful and happy and also feeling like one day I’ll forget a precious moment.

I was wondering, would it be ok if I took pictures but kept them just for myself, never printing them?
