The ruling on praying on a prayer mat that has an image on it

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on praying on a prayer mat that has an image on it?

Answer:
The prayer is valid, and the image is considered a single entity, no, because it is a depiction. The prayer is valid; it is disliked for the image to be in front of him, but if it is under his foot, it is a comfort for him.
