To photograph equals to draw using light

To photograph = to draw using light.

There are no shadows or reflections in this equation.

The only reason someone would insert such terms is because they do not understand how a machine uses light to produce images — and that is purely scientific.

No expert says that photography is like a mirror, or that a camera traps shadows. None.

The only people in the world who make that claim are Muslims who say drawing by hand is forbidden, but photography is not.

Isn’t that enough reason to stop and rethink one’s position on this matter — especially when grave punishment awaits image makers?
