Ruling on plates on which there are images
Question: 112060
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
The basic principle is that it is haraam to make images of animate beings, because of the evidence that has been narrated concerning that. But if the images are treated in a humiliating manner or are partial images, then it is permissible to use the things they are drawn on, such as carpets and the like.
And Allaah is the Source of strength. May Allaah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and companions. End quote.
