Answer
1. Photos, Pictures and animate objects: Picture frames and photographs of animate objects or animate objects/toys are not permissible. Pictures of inanimate objects e.g. trees, mountains, etc. are permissible. Ibn Abbas (RA) narrates, 'I heard the messenger of Allah saying, "Every picture-maker will be in the fire. A life will be created for every picture that the picture-maker made, and he will be tortured in Hell." If you have to make pictures (says Ibn Abbaas) then make a picture of a tree or such things which are inanimate.' (Bukhari and Muslim) 2. Downloading music or listening to music is forbidden as the prophet SAW has said " Music grows hypocrisy in the heart as water grows the crops."(Baihaqi) 3. It is permissable for a woman to use bleech to lighten facial hair or to do facials which cleanse the skin.And Allah knows best.
