What is the ruling on three-dimensional children's toys and cartoon images in books?

Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner asks: What is the ruling on children's toys in the shape of animals that are large in size? And what is the ruling on cartoon images in school books and other books?

Answer:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) cursed the image-makers and informed that they are the most severely punished of people on the Day of Resurrection, and that they will be said to on the Day of Resurrection: "Bring to life what you have created." And for every image he made,
on the Day of Resurrection they will be tasked to blow the soul into these images, and they are not the ones who blow the soul, for this is the affair of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). But this is a matter of torment and incapacitation for them; they will be said: "Bring to life what you have created," and and for every image he made, a soul will be assigned to it, and he will be tormented by it in Hellfire.
The danger of image-making is severe. It is not permissible for a person to make a profession of image-making, or to sell images; selling them is forbidden, buying them is forbidden, and placing them in houses is forbidden. Angels do not enter a house in which there is a dog or an image. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to 'Ali ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him): , except for worn-out images that are trampled upon and sat upon; these have no ruling. Or images that a person needs for his necessities, such as a passport or an identity card to prove one's identity; these are necessary, and a person keeps them because he needs them in his affairs which he cannot do without.
And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says: This is a necessity. As for choosing images for selection without necessity, but rather for the sake of art or for the sake of memories, it is not permissible to keep images. Whether for children or for others, as long as they are images of animals or images of humans, anything that has a soul, it is not permissible to make its image, and it is not permissible to use its image for children or for others. Yes.
