Question:
What is the ruling on purchasing toys in the form of three-dimensional images of living beings, such as dolls, puppets, and other animals, and how should one deal with a small child who insists on buying them, especially if he sees them with the neighbors' children?
Answer:
It is obligatory to keep children away from these images, especially the modern ones now, because they have become elaborate in them, and they have become like real bodies that move, and perhaps they contain recorded speech so they talk, and in them is a great trial, so it is obligatory to avoid them, so that the boys do not get accustomed to the images and grow up with them. And there are many toys, and praise be to Allah, that are sold in the markets to amuse children; there are many toys that amuse children and are not images, such as cars, weapons, and other types of the many toys. Yes.
