What is the ruling on eating a round biscuit with a picture of a smiling person drawn on it?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no harm in eating biscuits or other lawful food items that have pictures on them, especially if the image of the animal does not remain after its removal, such as by cutting off or severing the head, or if the picture lacks a vital organ without which life cannot be sustained. In such cases, the image is not considered unlawful.
