The Ruling on Image-Making

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on image-making?

Answer:
Image-making is forbidden except in cases of dire necessity. If dire necessity calls for image-making, there is nothing wrong with it.
while He has explained in detail to you what He has forbidden you, excepting that to which you are compelledوَقَدْ فَصَّلَ لَكُم مَّا حَرَّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ إِلَّا مَا اضْطُرِرْتُمْ إِلَيْهِ
[Al-An'am 6:119]
Dire necessity has its own ruling, but in the absence of dire necessity, image-making is not permissible due to the severity of the warning against it. Yes.
