Drawing is NOT forbidden. With respect to depicting human and animal life, scholars of Islamic Law present a spectrum of opinion, running the gamut from those who view all image-making to be lawful to those who categorically prohibit all drawings of animal life. The First Opinion: Some scholars hold the view that image making is essentially lawful. It is permissible to make two-dimensional illustrations as well as three-dimensional statues. The scholars who hold this view argue that the texts that prohibit image making are to be understood in the context of the state the people were in at the advent of Islam. The people had just emerged from the times of ignorance and from idolatry. After people became distanced from the worship of images, the prohibition was no longer necessary. This is why we see in some history books that when the Muslims opened up the lands of the Persians and Romans, they did not interfere with the pictures and statues found there. The Second Opinion: Some scholars hold the view that all images are unlawful, make two-dimensional illustrations as well as three-dimensional statues. They base their argument on the apparent meaning of a number of texts. These include the following: `A’ishah relates that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “The people who will be most severely punished on the Day of Resurrection will be those who aspire to create like Allah.” [Sahîh al-Bukhârî (5954) and Sahîh Muslim (2107)] Ibn ``Abbâs relates that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “Every image maker is in the Fire. For each image he made, a being will be fashioned to torment him in Hell.” [Sahîh al-Bukhârî (2225) and Sahîh Muslim (2110) - The wording accords with al-Bukhârî] Abû Talhah relates that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “The angels do not enter a house wherein there is a dog or images representing (people or animals).” [Sahîh al-Bukhârî (3225) and Sahîh Muslim (2106)] The Third Opinion: Other scholars hold a view that is intermediate between the former two. They argue that only three-dimensional images are prohibited. Those are the images being referred to by hadîth like “Every image maker is in the Fire.” They argue that only the manufacture of three-dimensional images can possibly be described as “aspiring to create like Allah.” Moreover, statues and not illustrations are the objects that people are most likely to take as objects of worship. The drawings and illustrations to be found on cloth, on paper, and decorating walls are, therefore, not objectionable. After considering all of the evidence, the opinion that appears to be the strongest of the three is the last opinion. The reasons why it is the strongest opinion are as follows: 1. The question of a person aspiring to create like Allah is really a question of that person’s intent. It is an action of the heart and it is tantamount to unbelief. A person who acts with such intent is in a state of unbelief, regardless of whether he is making replicas of animals or of inanimate objects like trees, rocks, rivers, or mountains. This is the reason for the prohibition against the image making in the hadîth. This is the reason why the image makers are being cursed. This is clarified by another hadîth where the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “Allah says: ‘Who does a greater wrong than one who aspires to creates as I create - a grain of corn, a seed, or a barleycorn?” [Sahîh al-Bukhârî (7559) and Sahîh Muslim (2111) - The wording accords with al-Bukhârî] Therefore, if the reason for the prohibition is that of aspiring to create like Allah creates, then the subject matter is irrelevant. It makes no difference if the image is that of an animal or an inanimate object. 2. The manufacture of statuary is unlawful because this activity is only carried out in order to aggrandize the subject. Such aggrandizement poses a danger of veneration and worship. The same can be said for photographs of prominent people when those photographs are erected high up in prominent places to be honored. In this case, such pictures become most certainly unlawful. The story of Noah’s people and how their making of statues in commemoration of their pious forebears led to their idolatry is clear proof of this danger. In our day and age, we see the pictures of many people displayed in public places for the purpose of false veneration. When we look at the generality of the statement - “Every image maker is in the Fire” -such a general statement cannot literally apply except to a great sin. This sin is that of willfully and intentionally aspiring to create like Allah. The word “every” that begins this sentence is the strongest word for indicating generality. Since it is then annexed to the indefinite noun “image maker” it linguistically indicates that generality is intended. The sentence is similar in structure to Allah’s words: “Every soul shall taste of death.” [Sûrah Al `Imrân: 185] When we look at the phrase - “those who aspire to create like Allah” - the term “aspire” here indicates a challenge. It means that these image makers are fashioning images in order to imitate Allah’s creative abilities and to present a challenge to Allah. We see in another hadîth related by Ibn `Abbâs that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “Those people who make these images in this world will be punished on Day of Resurrection. They will be commanded to breathe life into what they had created.” [Sahîh al-Bukhârî (5951) and Sahîh Mulsim (2108)] This specifies for us the meaning of “Every image maker is in the Fire” and the other hadîth mentioned above. All of the hadîth about image making refer to the intent of image maker to aspire to create like Allah. We find in the texts mention of many other major sins that are certainly worse that the making of images - like adultery, taking usury, and abusing parents - without it being declared that the perpetrators of those sins are consigned to the Fire, like we find in “Every image maker is in the Fire”. This should make it even clearer to us that those who make images without the intention of aspiring to create like Allah are not included in the generality of the hadîth’s meaning. Rather, the hadîth applies to all of those who have the intention of aspiring to create like Allah. 3. If we look at the statements of the Pious Predecessors, we can see that they understood the texts about image making to be merely a severe warning against what is sinful rather than a direct prohibition. For instance, when a man who was a professional image maker came to Ibn `Abbâs asking him for a ruling, Ibn `Abbâs merely said: “If you have to do so, then make images of trees and of that which has no soul. [Sahîh al-Bukhârî (2225) and Sahîh Muslim (2110)] Ibn `Abbâs was neither harsh with him nor did he make any categorical statement. He said nothing more than that. We find that the Pious Predecessors generally made statements about image making that indicated nothing more than pious reserve and avoiding that which can lead to deviance. 4. Many types of images produced today are meant for education and can hardly be dispensed with. One pictorial representation can often suffice for hundreds of words. We can see that `A’ishah used to play with dolls, and they were three-dimensional images. Such toys are permitted by the sacred texts. Scholars explain this permissibility by saying that the purpose behind such images is one of instruction and educational play. The ruling, then, applies to the general cause and not to the particular instance that illustrates this cause. If three-dimensional figures are permitted for children for education and constructive play, then it is even more appropriate that such images be permitted for adults, since adults are required to learn a far greater range of more difficult and critical skills. In today’s world, images - especially two-dimensional images - are indispensable for people to carry out the necessary activities of life. The ruling that such images are permissible is in harmony with the general ease and facility of Islamic Law. Allah says: “Allah wants to make things easy for you, and he does not want things to be difficult for you.” [Sûrah al-Baqarah: 185]

Prophet Muhammad prohibited to draw the living....because the people who'll draw the living...will get the severest punishment on the day of Judgement! Ata'at means to do something without questioning♥ Loving your Lord means obeying him♥ When Ibrahim (A.s) were ordered to sacrifice his son Ismail.. He didn't say... I wouldn't do it? Or what's the point of doing it or anything like that! He just obeyed! And what was the reward? His son was safe and sound! Dear Brother and Sisters, I know it's hard! But...when you'll love your Lord, automatically... You'll try to leave the sins... And obey him...! Now, if anyone wishes to feel Allah's love to the peak! I'll say..

If you are confused about something, isn't it better to not do it at all to be on the safe side? The what ifs might turn into sins and doubts when you could easily prevent them. Also remember, this whole life is a test. Allah gave many people talents because that is their test in life. Some people are gifted with beautiful voices, some people have intelligence, and some people have extreme beauty. All of these are tests to see what we do with the gifts given by Allah swt. Would we use our beautiful voices to sing or recite the Quran? Would we use our intelligence for good or commit evil? You get the gist. I have talent in drawing anime and realism but never plants and nature. However, recently I gave up drawing realism and focusing on painting nature and even though it's hard, I feel better knowing I am doing it for the sake of Allah. May Allah make it easy for us all. Ameen.

Contrary to challenging Allah, drawing had a different effect on me. When I realized just how attached I was to my drawing which were, in every way imaginable, inferior to us (Allah's creations), I just slightly understood how much Allah must love all of us (it's said that it is 70 times as much as a mother) whom He declared to be the crowns of His creations. It seriously made me want to stop sinning and do good, just to please Him (and to keep on drawing...)

I want to make a manga comic to motivate people to do good things and to try to logically prove them that there is only one God. I will not worship any of characters nor make anyone worship them because they don't exist.

I understand that drawing living things which have soul like people and animals is prohibited BECAUSE the artist is challenging Allah that he can create something similar to Allah’s creation BUT my question is that what if the artist intentions are not that. Because the the intention of a person is between him and Allah?

Only God knows what is in your heart and He will not hold you accountable for something you didn't know was wrong. Now about your question, honestly I have researched so much on this topic and I still have no idea. The hadith are quite confusing mainly because of their language and how they conflict with the Prophet's soft way of speaking and also because of the overexaggeration of the hadith which suggest that they might've been forged. These are all of course MY unprofessional opinions. I am genuinely suspicious of the hadith not being authentic so instead of taking a risk, I look at the source itself- The Quran and follow what God directly has had.

Allah gave us knowledgeable scholars to guide us. Jazakallah khairun.

Jajakh Allah swt Dr shabbier you are absolutely amazing pls help all the ignorants in the world,like you are always helping.

Its hard for me to imagine Allah swt in all his majesty would be offended in something so minuscule as a drawing. I could understand if someone drew something to be worshipped then that would be obviously shirk, but a normal drawing would not make sense. Allahu Alim.

Problem here is it’s just all “WE” think. But the The hadith was so generalized with no exceptions. And the jumhor goes with the likely opinion which is the prohibition of animate drawings in general. I do draw faces down to the neck only, but aside from being proud and happy of my progress, I’ve always felt worried that this something wrong to do. Prophet Muhammad Pbuh certainly knows more than we do. And this hadith was so generalized which led to it being controversial. 😔 I guess I’ll never find the answer but I’ll be at least getting rid of that feeling of being worried and guilt.

So after conducting plenty of research and thinking, here is my perspective of drawing that some might find enlightening. There are 3 views Islamic scholars have concluded about drawing. 1. All types of drawings ,paintings, animations, statues, and sculptures of living or animate beings are haram
 2. Only handmade images of living or animate beings are haram, not computer animations. 3. All types of drawings ,paintings, animations, statues, and sculptures of living or animate beings are allowed as long as they are not created for haram purposes such as idolatry or challenging Allah (SWT). View #1 is based on the Bukhari hadith claiming, "Every image maker will be thrown in the fire. And on the Day of Judgement he will be told to put life in them." This hadith has been interpreted to refer to only living (animate) things such as humans and animals. You might wonder what is the reasoning behind this? One answer was that if someone is to draw these they are challenging Allah (SWT) creations. In other words, believing or thinking they are a better creator than Allah (SWT). So ask yourself, has Allah (SWT) created numerous other things such as rivers, lakes, streams, mountains, clouds, plants, deserts, tundras, stars, the sun, the moon, planets, and the galaxy? Why is it not considered a challenge when someone uses art to create any one of those things mentioned? Allah (SWT) knows your intentions behind your reasoning of creating art. If it is not to do haram things like worship them or challenge Allah (SWT), isn't that acceptable? View #2 has been claimed due to a Bukhari hadith referring to the image maker as a "musawwir". Which is the Arabic word for a person who draws images. So ask yourself, is it understandable for Allah (SWT) to forbid handmade drawing but allow technological drawings? Also, computer animations may rely on handmade drawings. Some scholars have even claimed that any animation containing a living or animate beings is haram. Taking this into consideration, the creation of every single cartoon show containing humans or animals would be a haram act. The creation of every single video game containing humans or animals would be a haram act. It would not end there. Watching, playing, and purchasing video games containing animations of humans or animals would also be a haram act. Allah (SWT) tells us in the Quran (59:7), مَّآ أَفَآءَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَسُولِهِۦ مِنۡ أَهۡلِ ٱلۡقُرَىٰ فَلِلَّهِ وَلِلرَّسُولِ وَلِذِى ٱلۡقُرۡبَىٰ وَٱلۡيَتَـٰمَىٰ وَٱلۡمَسَـٰكِينِ وَٱبۡنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ كَىۡ لَا يَكُونَ دُولَةَۢ بَيۡنَ ٱلۡأَغۡنِيَآءِ مِنكُمۡ‌ۚ وَمَآ ءَاتَٮٰكُمُ ٱلرَّسُولُ فَخُذُوهُ وَمَا نَہَٮٰكُمۡ عَنۡهُ فَٱنتَهُواْ‌ۚ وَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ‌ۖ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَدِيدُ ٱلۡعِقَابِ Which translates to, "What God has bestowed On His Messenger (and taken Away) from the people Of the townships,-belongs To God,-to His Messenger And to kindred and orphans, The needy and the wayfarer ; In order that it may not (Merely) make a circuit Between the wealth among you. So take what the Messenger Assigns to you, and deny Yourselves that which he Withholds from you. And fear God ; for God Is strict in Punishment." As muslims, we are supposed to abstain from what is haram. For example, drinking, purchasing , and selling alcohol would be haram. Therefore, the same concept would apply to human and animal animations. Does Islam forbid watching all cartoons containing people and animals? Does Islam forbid playing EA sports FIFA because it contains animations of people? Once again, Allah (SWT) knows your intentions behind your reasoning of creating art. Nowhere in the Quran does it prohibit the creation drawing, painting, animating, etc. Reflecting back on the prophet's times there were reported to be idol worshippers. The Bukhari hadith preventing image making is very controversial. View #3, all types of drawings ,paintings, animations, statues, and sculptures of living or animate beings are allowed as long as they are not created for haram purposes such as idolatry or challenging Allah (SWT). That view is logical correct?

That is called fear of Allah, i experienced too. Sadly, i must forsake it and stick to drawing houses and landscapes.

I am also a muslim but I was obessed with drawing faces. I had lots of diaries full of drawings of all kinds of people. When I turned 12 my parents told me to stop and all 'cause it's haram and they were right but I couldn't stop myself as it was my hobby. Now I'm thirteen and have quit drawing, I usually write stories 'cause that's okay. Even though I still wish I could draw when I see others drawing, but I always tell myself that I must not disrespect my religion, focusing on the dunya. Even though sometimes I've cried due to this but I know I must control myself since this is not allowed. Inshallah one day I would get used to this, because I've just quit this hobby.

I searched on google and found a fatwa from Dar Al Ifta Al Missriyah which is associated with Al Azhar university and is the main Islamic ruling body in Egypt. They said that drawing animate beings is fine.

Sure?

Ive been searching whether character customization is haram or not. For example a game would give you a list of facial features like mouth, nose, eyes, etc. And you can pick in order to make a face. I find it a bit difficult to find the proper answer since ive seen the opinions about drawing, both opinions seem logical, and I cant find a straight answer. Is drawing/making images haram or not? Is it okay since its just a game? Is it okay since I didnt draw the features and I just picked them to make a face? Someone please help

I was about to cry, when I found out drawing is haram because I love drawing people and faces and animals so much because of "Anime" but I do always pray and I don't miss a salah and do my responsibilities as a Muslim and I Love Allah , But I want to draw things too 😭

To be on the safe side, avoid drawing living things altogether, you can still draw landscapes, buildings, vehicles, robots, dolls, etc. those aren't living things, as for humanoid things such as robots and dolls, don't make all the facial features, perhaps use an anime style for it, anime tends to not have eyes, mouth, many times no nose, if you are drawing environment and need to draw living figures, surely shades are enough to fill the gap inside. Again Allah swt knows best, always keep digging deeper each day.

Dr. Shabir I love you so much may allah grant you jannah💗💗 now I can’t hang my flamingos

Ive been drawing since i was at school well since i was 5 years old qnd as i got older i became more experienced. I converted to islam about 12 years ago.

Masallah given to beautiful answer

The answer to your question is: No, there’s nothing wrong with drawing in Islam, but there are Islamic guidelines to follow. The notion that drawing is forbidden in Islam has been believed by lots of people and Muslims because of very strict Muslim scholars, and because “Drawing is haram” is pretty much the first answer you’ll get when you search it up online. The thing that others aren’t aware of is that the “drawing should be avoided at all cost in Islam” is simply an extreme pre-caution given from some of the scholars, and sometimes, it’s even formed on their own opinions from their own interpretations of the verses from the Quran regarding about drawing. But don’t misunderstand, thinking that they're at fault. There are Islamic guidelines in drawing, that Muslims should be aware of. If drawing is haram in Islam, the community called Muslim Manga wouldn’t have existed in the first place, and those Islamic magazines with anime-oriented Islamic art wouldn’t be out in display for everyone to read and look. Heck, if drawing is haram, Qatar would have ban art classes and art school for Qataris and Muslims from different ethnicities from participating, and making a career out of it.

Remember that it is stated in the Al Quran that Rasoolullah Sulaiman (AS) had statues built for him so it was more likely that is actually ok to engrave (draw) picture but you must not give a wrong message or a wrong influence with that engraving (drawing), that is probably haram.

i have a question, so on the past I used to draw realistic but gave up on it because people said drawing realistic is haram so I drew in an anime style but not really, so is it haram? cause I am very confused. because if it is haram it would be very hard to stop.

when I asked my ustad, he told that, structurally a living things has four sides , and when we draw it on paper we can only draw one or two sides.,so its not a problem but it is not permissible to create statues.

Wallahi they are making naked picture of their gods and goddesses in disrespectful positions... That's what happen when you allow pictures... This Shaikh I don't know which aqaid he is from... But he will ruin our Imaan ... And that is why making pictures and statues have been prohibited... And one thing about prophet Solomon pbuh .. that we are the Ummah of final Messenger pbuh... Do you know in one earlier ayah of Quran Allah mentions that don't drink alcohol and come to prayer... At that time alcohol was not prohibited totally... And later it was totally prohibited... Islam is a religion that understands that a sudden change is not feasible and it has to be in progression ... And will happen gradually... And finally alcohol was made haram... SO THE MODERN MUSLIMS WILL YOU AGRUE THAT ALCOHOL IS HALAL??? likewise the final ruling on pictures come from the final Messenger... It's so haram that he didn't even enter a place which had curtains with pictures...

There are different opinions towards photos/recordings because you are not exactly imitating/drawing Allah's creation in your own image. Rather it is taking snapshots of what Allah has already created.

Look they are saying drawing humans, animals and such realistic portraits are prohibited but we can draw nature like mountains, trees, flowers and other non-living creatures. Despite both the things are created by the one and only Allah(SWT) and no one can ever create (astaghfirullah). They are like if we draw realistic things means we are competing with Allah(SWT) despite our intentions will be completely different at the time we draw. We can never ever think to compete with Him. Then if we draw nature ain't it be compatible? I have researched a lot and found no proper answer. Everyone is telling different things. I don't know I'm so messed up right now😳😳

Watch the video, he says as long as it's not for idols it's okay

Yeah I still don’t understand. I believe that the Quran says what is haram and what is halal. The Hadith should go into detail on the Quran. For example, the Quran said to pray, and the Hadith said how to pray. The Quran said that women should cover up and that men should lower their gaze. The Hadith says how women should cover up and how men should lower their gaze. I don’t believe that the Hadith can right out say that something is haram or halal when in the book of Allah it doesn’t (this applies to music too). Then again, the hadith could have been easily forged, because they didn’t take the precautions that they did with the Quran. I think I’ll continue to draw halal human figures (no gods, no awrahs etc.) until I get a straight up answer that is not a interpretation nor opinion of a scholar. To elaborate even more, drawings were worshipped and music was used to distract from iman back then, so if it doesn’t draw you away from Allah, then is halal. Allah knows best.

Which means I can draw cartoonish characters for games, right?

I should tell you the hadith is sahih but it talks about the idols and statues of alive creature that is completed parts of body not about the drawing and there are some hadith about drawing but some of them are different so i cant say its halal or haram because i wasnt in the times of prophet Muhammad pbuh so yeah

That was so Beautiful. I love the Line, In the Quran too, Solomon had Big statues. Also in one of the Comments, Aisha (ra) played with dolls. Boom. I love it. Look guys Never make art in the motivation to create somethin Better than god. Then you will be punished. Love you Dr. Love you all.

Drawing portraits in this context are prohibited, but what if you appreciate allahs creation more through that ? And also do it with an intent not to create a human being but to try to portrait an already existing being from the best creator Allah (s.w.t) ? I am in no means trying to justify what’s right and wrong Allah knows the best I am just trying to learn

I don't understand. I don't intend to challenge Allah's creations when I draw, I just like drawing them. I also draw landscapes, plants, animals, etc. because I love them and see how beautiful they are. Like I said, I don't intend or want to challenge Allah's creations, I just want to draw them. I know we can't draw the prophets for sure, but does it make a difference if I create something that isn't actually a real human being? It's not like I want to actually make them or anything. The Quran says nothing about it and my mom draw human and realistic features, obviously we don't worship them I just need a clear answer, yes or no or yes, unless or no, unless. Please tell me I would like to know, I will also ask my teachers, Salam.

But...when you'll love your Lord, automatically... You'll try to leave the sins... And obey him...! Now, if anyone wishes to feel Allah's love to the peak! I'll say.. What can you do to please your Lord?

You can still draw things that don't have soul such as trees and landscape.

May God bless you, We need more scholer like you in the world, Now a days most of the islamic scholer making the the impression of Islam bad, They say eveything haram without knowing how it works

Wait so if you have book covers on your bookshelf or you have pictures in a draw or something, will angels still not visit?

You can draw with the exception of drawing face.. Like I do dress designing... So, I only represent the clothes... In my art...without the exception of drawing face because that's haram. But personally, I think.... We should not draw the back of the characters... It's like....that the character has a face but it's standing showing the back.... Same in the case of drawing hijab women... I think... We should show the front of the character we draw...to tell yeaa... There is no face.... This is my own opinion... Not a fatwa... Wallah hu A'lam😀😀

@@muhammadsaleemali4956 bro, stop spreading your nonensence, Drwaing isn't haram in islam and this is fact, Only Idiolizing them is haram, Try the understand the context of hadith

Dr Shabir is very intelligent knowledgeable and logical person in terms religion and other sciences but i am concerned on his take on hadith by easily discrediting them rather than look for more hadiths or quranic verses that shed more light on the question at hand.It seems we need to revisit the islamic traditions but also we need to be careful for this line of thinking is slim and shaky at best.

I’m a little confused, on one hand you mention that the holy prophet (pbuh) mentions himself that he wouldn’t enter a house with pictures on curtain, that he mentions that those who draw animate figure will be asked to put life in them. Then you say it is an Israelite belief that was misinterpreted. So are you suggesting that the prophet himself didn’t clearly prohibit drawing and sculpting?

@phant0m291

My own personal opinion is that the Prophet (PBUH) wouldve forbidden picture-making because it was used for the sake of idol worship back then. Intrestingly enough, we find in the Quran that Prophet Solomon (PBUH) made statues of his own. This confirms a narrative in the old testament (to be more precise, in the books of kings) where Prophet Solomon (PBUH) made himself statues and carved pictures of palm trees, pomegranates and cherubim. (Cherubim is a happy, chubby innocent child that has two wings).

One of the biggest reason why animate pictures and statues are haram because people end up in worshipping them .

Wrong. Mushrikeen, idol worshippers, Catholics, Hindus, Christians and Buddhists use only a specific type of images, statues or pictures , not just any type of image. If there is a painting or a statue of Bill Cosby, Tom Cruise, or Htler, will any Christian or Hindu use those pictures for their ibada? No, A Christian will want an image of Christ, and a Hindu would only use an image of Krishna or some other deity.The prophet sal Allaahu alayhi, prohibited a certain category of pictures directly related to shirk , not all images of just any ordinary animal or human.

OMG. READ UR QURAN FOR ONCE

I don't understand the question I have is can we draw figures of people or at least no face just the circle......or even take pictures of animals people etc...??????

It was narrated that Aa'ishah (may Allah be t with her) Said: The messenger of Allah (peace & blessings of Allah be upon him) come back from the compagin to tabook or khaiber 'and In her alcove there was a curtain .the breeze came and lifted the edge of the curtain, uncovering the " daughter " of 'Aa'ishah 'I.e.' her doll .He said wat is this that I see among them? "She said " S house" . He said : what is this on it ?; She said: two winges:. He said :"A horse with the winged?; She said : " have you not heard that sulaymaan had horses with winged?" She said: and he smiled so broadoly that I could see his eyes and teeth narrates Abu Dawood ( 4832),Classed as saheeh by Al_ Iraaqi in Takhreej Al_Ihya ( 2/344) and by Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood ...........Al_Haafiz ibn hajr said ,in Fath _AlBaari ( 10/527)/this hadeeth is taken as evidence that it is Permissible to have dolls and toys for girls to play with .that is an exception to the prohibition of images .This was stated by 'Iyaad' and it was narrated from the majority that they allowed the sale of toys and dolls so that girls might learn from a young age how to take care of their house and their children .End quote

The classical ruling (the one held by the earliest Muslims and most probably by the companions of the prophet) is based on hadiths which many Muslim scholars of the past and the present hold to be authentic. It seems to me that the Sheikh is trying to 'modernise' Islam. Otherwise Islam would fail to seem logical. Just think for a second. What is so inherently wrong with drawing pictures of living beings? Prohibiting such a creative act seems absurd.

I was under the impression music was haram and i didn’t move from by bed for almost a whole day, until i found out that i was wrong. we literally have scholarly evidence that shows music is not haram, referring to the hadith in bukhari being ruled out. yesterday i was overthinking like i always do while watching one piece. btw watching anime is my favorite hobby. anyways, i started thinking that watching it is kufr because it’s imitating Allah’s creation. i was going insane. then i went to my father and told him about it and he simply told me that it’s just a cartoon that you enjoy, but don’t watch the shows that give someone the place of God. i was relaxed after that.

What if we erase them after drawing?

im no scholar or experienced in the islamic field, i am just an ordinary muslim who likes to draw comic/anime characters, and from what i've gathered, as long as you have the intention of just telling a story or just drawing a not too relaistic human, its fine. if your character isnt being worshipped or misused it should be fine. talents should be used to help islam and not shot down using the haram gun. that is my view, not that it matters much, pls do your own research too and stick wiht what you firmly believe in.

This comment might be a bit late by the time you are reading this but this is all I want to say. I used to adore watching anime (still do) and when I do watch it I start for some reason to start analysing the animation its self or the character themselves. After a while of watching, I'd begin to draw the character. This was especially when I watched Tokyo Ghoul, Hunter X Hunter (haven't finished) , Dragon Ball Z/GT/Super. I began to animate some fight scenes using a stick software called Stick Nodes then later moved to flipaclip. I loved creating my own fighting animations. However, I was told that drawing was haram. I've heard that drawing was haram so much times yet I ignored it. After a really long time, quite recently I searched if drawing was haram (By this time it was probably like 6 months the last time I animated but a day since I drew anything - Trunks from DBZ -) It said that it was in a way challenging Allah (SWT). Ustagfurallah if what I said was miss heard or said but I was actually shook. At that moment , I began to want to throw all my drawings away. Btw I didn't usually keep that much drawings and when I drew it was usually sketches. I just want to find the 100% truth. Im beginning to feel a little wierd. Is it haram to animate since it involves having to draw. If drawing animations are haram is it haram to animate sprite characters ( Those pixel characters u usually see in those rather old games). I'd like to get an answer because I want to animate stuff that can be inspiration to other muslims like for e.g Fighting against shaytan and the super power is iman. its proper fights , at least I hope
