Home » Hanafi Fiqh » Askimam.org » Greetings to you Imam. I wish to know whether it is permitted to draw faces?
If there is an outline of a drawing (faces/animals faces)and you go over the outline, is it permitted?
We have not come across any specific ruling in this matter. Thus, the safest
would be to regard such drawings as Haraam, as is the position with the
drawings of all animate objects.
However, if the head is totally removed, such drawings will be permissible.
