What is the ruling on illustrated stories that contain human cartoon characters with cat ears or tails, or human characters wearing an outfit resembling the fictional character Alice, and is reading them considered a major sin? What is the ruling on lying about one's name when asking a شيخ (religious scholar), especially if it later becomes apparent that the name will not be published?
There is no objection to reading illustrated cartoon stories that are free of Sharia prohibitions. The presence of a human cartoon character with cat ears or a cat tail is not forbidden as long as it does not violate the Creed.
