first concept that to to be make clear, is some measurables are frame dependent concepts:
e.g. mass/energy, time, momentum , length
different reference frame will measure a different value. they are all valid from their perspective.
photon or anything that move at [speed of light] do not have a rest frame, aka u cant comove with it in some platform that its speed is zero relative to u.
since there is no photon reference frame. rest mass of a photon is UNDEFINED. photon does however have a relativistic mass when measure from a any inertial frame. as dictated by E=MC^2
