Question: cartoon characters
jazakallah for answering my previous question.

Just for further clarification that means that Islamic children's books which have pictures of humans and animals are therefore not permissable to draw and publish.

What about a book shop selling islamic books with pictures in them to Muslim children, is this allowed.

Also, is it permissable to buy islamic childrens books with pictures in them.

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah's guidance)


It is not permissible for any Muslim to prepare or buy a book with animate pictures (i.e. pictures with a head) whether these are for children or adults.
