AL-KAFI #411 : MENGAMBIL GAMBAR SKEMA JAWAPAN LATIHAN TANPA KEBENARAN
Is it permissible for a student to photograph the answer scheme of exercises without the lecturer's knowledge?
Short answer
If the lecturer does not permit it, the act should not be done, as it is a discourteous way of treating a teacher.

Summary
If the lecturer does not permit it, the act should not be done, as it is a discourteous way of treating a teacher. The student is advised to meet the lecturer personally to learn how to work through the exercises. The purpose of exercises is to train students to arrive at answers themselves, not to view the answers first.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Jika perbuatan saudara itu tidak dibenarkan oleh pensyarah, maka sayugianya tidak dilakukan kerana demikian merupakan salah satu cara yang tidak beradab kepada guru.
