Exploring the Status of Art in Islam
The Quran does not explicitly forbid the depiction of living beings through visual art. However, the hadiths found in Sahih Bukhari clearly prohibit the creation of images of living entities. These hadiths challenge artists by stating that they attempt to 'breathe life' into their creations and warn that they may face consequences on the Day of Judgment.
