Playing with toys in the shape of people or animals

 

since we're not allowed to make images of humans and animals, should children be allowed to play with toys in the shape of humans or animals?.

Praise be to Allaah.
 

 

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy
on him) said: 

With regard to those in which the shape is
incomplete, in which there is only a part of the limbs or head, but the shape is not clear, there is no doubt that these are permissible, and
these are like the dolls with which ‘Aa’ishah used to play. (Narrated in al-Bukhaari, 6130; Muslim, 2440). 

But if the shape is complete, and it is as if
you are looking at a person – especially if it can move or speak – then I am not entirely at ease with the idea of them being permissible, because
this is a complete imitation of the creation of Allaah. It seems that the dolls with which ‘Aa’ishah used to play were not like this, so it is
preferable to avoid them. But I cannot say that they are definitely haraam, because there are concessions granted to young children that are not
granted to adults in such matters. It is natural for young children to play and have fun, they are not obliged to do any of the acts of worship so
we cannot say that that they are wasting their time in idle play. But if a person wants to be on the safe side in such matters, he should cut off
the head or hold it near the fire until it softens, then he should press it until the features disappear.

Reading Quran to seek the light to the right path. The holy Quran is the ultimate source and light for all Muslims. To seek this light of it one needs to read Quran. The importance of the text of Quran cannot be doubted or questions. At the same time, the significance of learning Quran with translation holds a great strength for a holy quran reciter.

There are number of issue in the daily life of Muslims, in which Muslims need to improve according to the Quran. Muslims have been practicing the same conventions from long time, without consulting Quran themselves. Unfortunately, many times Muslims ignore the negative side and only see the positive side of what has been written in the Quran.
