Assalamualaikum My question is making picture or drawing or even a imagination thing is Haram. I am not making any features of eye , I am not making humans but I am just making doodles is thi Haram? And I am making just back sketch,

My father was a Unani Doctor. He passed away in July 2019. We are 2 brother and I am younger. My elder brother is 20 years older than me and practiced for some time with my father. Our clinic was on the ground floor of the house we lived. It's well known by my father's name/fame in the nearby cities. Patients recognised him. After his death, he took over the entire clinic and left me and my mother. Fortunately, half of the house where we lived was under my mother's name. As I was also in the same profession and completed my studies around the time of his death only, me and my mother started a new clinic in half of the house. Now there are 2 clinic's and both claim to be old place of my late father. Recently, my elder brother started keeping my father's image framed and hanged at several places within the clinic. This is affecting our business as patient's still come due to my father's name only and recognise the photo. Several people have advised to hang a photo in our clinic as well but we don't know if its right. Before my brother had started keeping my father's image, both of the clinic's were getting almost 50-50% of patients. Main Query: Is it ok for me to keep image of my deceased father hanged inside the clinic under the given circumstances as it has high impact on patients coming to my clinic?

If Islam prohibits depicting prophets, and consider Jesus a prophet (although not the biggest one), are all these images of Jesus in Christian hands some kind of sacrilege?

In the past, I bought books that teach how to draw anatomy, hands, faces, etc. Since I no longer will be using them (because I recently learned that drawing animate things is haram), I'm not really sure if selling them is permissible (seeing as the content of the books teaches how to draw animate things). The anatomy stuff isn't explicit in the sense that it details genitalia, though it does obviously have sketches of nude men and woman. That being said, their 'awrah is exposed, even if it isn't depicted in full detail. Just to clarify: these are educational books and clearly not pornography. Similar to how biology textbooks show nude bodies and such organs for teaching purposes. If selling is not permissible, should I donate or simply throw them away?

Assalam alaikum I want to know whether is it alright to read manga or anime with cartoon images in it? Recently I read on a islamqa website that watching a cartoon image is permissiible,see this; Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked: What is the ruling on cartoons that appear on TV? He replied: With regard to the cartoons which you say appear on TV, if they are in the form of humans, then the ruling on watching them depends on whether they come under the same ruling as realistic human images or not? It is most likely that they do not come under that ruling. If they are not in the form of humans, then there is nothing wrong with watching them, so long as they are not accompanied by anything haraam such as music and so on, and they do not distract from obligatory duties. End quote. Majmoo’ al-Fataawa 2/question no. 333 Also I have read that the rule of a awrah of a woman doesn't apply to cartoon since it is not real and hence we can watch them, see this; Some scholars favored the view that such images do not take the ruling of images of real persons, so they permitted looking at them. Shaykh Ibn 'Uthaymeen said: “With regard to cartoon images that you mentioned are shown on television, if they are in the shape of a human, then the ruling of looking at them has to be looked at. Are they like a real image or not? The closest opinion to the truth is that they do not look like them (real images). And if they do not have a human shape, then there is nothing wrong with looking at them as long as they are not accompanied by an evil, such as music or the like, and provided that they do not distract one from performing an obligatory act of worship.” Now my question if it is allowed to watch a woman in a cartoon, does that mean we can also see a woman in a cartoon or a 2d image in inappropriate clothing(like Japanese school uniform or skirt long and small) of course provided that no private part are showing. So plz tell me how much awrah of a woman should be exposed and what can we see?

I want to know that can I use a utensil which have pictures of animals, birds or humans drawn on it? If it is forbidden then why?

We know that drawing pictures of animate creatures is prohibited in Islam. The following hadeeth are very explicit. > Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) visited me after returning from a journey, and I had a shelf with a thin cloth curtain hanging over it and on which there were portraits. When he saw it, the colour of his face changed (because of anger) and he said, "O Aishah! The most grievous torment from Allah on the Day of Resurrection will be for those who imitate (Allah) in the act of His creation.' Aishah said: We tore it into pieces and made a cushion or two cushions out of that. [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]. > > Ibn Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) said: The Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: Those who draw pictures will be punished on the Day of Resurrection; and it will be said to them: 'Breathe soul into what you have created.' [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]. > > Ibn Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) saying, "Every painter will go to Hell, and for every portrait he has made, there will be appointed one who will chastise him in the Hell.'" Ibn Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them) said: If you have to do it, draw pictures of trees and other inanimate things. [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]. However, is one allowed to draw images of humans and animals without drawing their eyes?

as-salamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him), who said, “I heard the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say: ‘Whoever makes an image in this world will be told to breathe the soul into it on the Day of Resurrection, and he will never be able to do that.’” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari and Muslim). He [Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him)] also narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Every image-maker will be in the Fire, and every image that he made will be made to appear to him and will torment him in Hell.” Ibn ‘Abbaas said: “If you must do that, then make trees and things that have no soul.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari and Muslim). I know that drawing living beings is not halal. But I do not know if the point is about *similarity* or *intention*. (I am developing games so as you know most of the video games includes living beings like human, animal, etc. so I needed a detailed explanation) **Abbaas said: “If you must do that, then make trees and things that have no soul"** So I really stuck in here and I wonder if I can draw living beings that is not similar to its real form (like a(n) body/arm/leg is not looking like a real one or drawing a robot or a 3d model of that) or the things that doesn't even have a real form in the world (I am asking the last part depending on this: if there is no living being as so in the world, because there is no living being like that then it cannot have a soul indeed). Or, is it still not halal because we are still drawing a living being (even if it is not looking like or even it actually is not existing) ? It can also be considered for making robots or 3d models of them. Robots are resembling humans in appearance because they may have arms, legs etc. But they are still not the exact same. Even they have legs their legs is not looking like a real skin. They are only made of cables etc. And it means that they have no soul actually. So I want to ask the same question for making robots or their 3d models or their drawings. Is it haram because it is resembling or is halal because it has no soul indeed? As a second question, is it halal to draw if the character I draw is fully dressed even his hands are covered with a glove or something so nothing can be seen? I am not drawing any living being for a long time since I made sure that it is not halal. So if it is halal, I will continue by drawing living things that is not looking like its original form or by drawing things that are not actually existing (like aliens, monsters etc.). If not I'll continue not to draw. Don't get me wrong I am not trying to find an excuse to draw. Just trying to understand clearly. So please tell me if it is not halal. I need it. I hope I could explain the point I am confused. Thanks a lot as-salamu alaikum

I am in a dilema. I feel so guilty and hence am seeking guidance here. I want to know what is the perfect definition of ''inanimate'' object according to Allah and Quran and My Prophet (PBUH). I am an animator. I create animation and that is my career. Since I came to know about the famous hadith about drawing living objects and It angers Allah and I will be asked on the judgement Day to give lives to whatever I drew since then I cant sleep. I was a sinner. I didnt pay much attention. But now I regret a lot and destroyed/deleted all my human, animal related animation drawing. And shifted my career into dead object animation, like map animation, chart, fashion desgining, kid's education related animation.... my question is Is a fruit inanimate object? or a leaf? A fruit? River? Sometimes I get offer to animated character of an olive! that Olive character walks, have eyes... etc.. like cartoon. Is that a sin? is that olive considered as an inanimate object? or not? giving it eyes, mouth, ears- etc --all these will anger Allah?? I need authentic reference and anythng that will help me. jajakallahu khairan

I am building a website that has various topics in it. One category is religion, and it has topics about various religions around the world. I want to create a topic about Christianity and I have to use an image of a cross near that topic. So is it okay if have it?

The 2nd commandment says not to make an image of anything that Allah created in the six days of creation. Furthermore, we are commanded to not worship the moon, as well as the sun and stars. Does the symbol of the crescent moon above mosques violate the 2nd commandment to not make images of the moon?

Salam, I have gotten into the habit of drawing eyes, and I don't know if it is permissable in Islam. Can someone please explain to me if it is allowed or no?
