What is the Punishment for Picturemakers? Abu Hurairah (RA) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said: "Allah said: "’Who would be more unjust than the one who tries to create the like of my creatures? Let them create an atom, or let them create a grain or let them create a barley corn.’" (Al-Bukhari and Muslim) They also reported from Aisha (RA) that Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said: "The people who will receive the severest punishment on the Day of Resurrection will be those who try to make the like of Allah’s creation." Also reported by them from Ibn Abbas (RA) that I heard Allah’s Messenger (SAW) saying: "All the picture makers would be in the fire of Hell. A soul will be breathed in every picture prepared by him and it shall punish him in the Hell." It is additionally narrated from Ibn Abbas (RA) in a Marfu’ Hadith: "Whoever makes a picture in this world will be charged with putting a soul (life) in it and he will never be able to do it." Muslim reports
from Abu Haiyaj (Al-Asadi) that Ali (RA) said to him: "Should I not despute you on a mission on which I was sent by Allah’s Messenger (SAW)?: Deface all the pictures which you come across and demolish all the high graves to the level of earth."
