“Dr. Khaled Al-Zaaq’s Experience in Developing Photos and Regret for Burning Them”

Al-Marsad Newspaper: Dr. Khaled Al-Zaaq revealed his experience in developing photos in the past, as they were sent to Britain and returned after 6 months, and he expressed his remorse for burning pictures of him and his family because it was forbidden, stressing that “it was the saddest day in his life.”

He regrets burning the photos

Al-Zaaq said during a live broadcast: “By God Almighty, I regret until now because I burned my pictures because it is forbidden.”

And he continued: Since the year 1418 AH, after I entered the university, I began to search on my own, and I gained knowledge of what is permissible and what is forbidden, so I returned to photography again, and began photographing everything big and small.

They applied the words “pictures are forbidden”

And he went on: But my pictures when I was a child, pictures of my sisters, my parents, my uncle and my grandfather are all gone.

And he added: By God, the saddest day of my life was the day when I cut off my photos. I had the albums of the world, and they told us it is forbidden, and this was in 1986.

And he went on: Those who told us it is forbidden, now they are the ones who sit on Snape, and I don’t know what. This problem does not kill your creativity with words that affect you.

He explained: My uncle Abdullah, may God have mercy on him, was studying in Britain, so we used to take pictures and take them with him to acidify them, and he usually comes back after 6 months and brings the photos with him.
