What is the ruling on wearing dolls in the shape of humans or animals to participate in children's programs?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is permissible to license three-dimensional children's toys, but imitating animals and embodying their forms is not permissible, because it involves mimicking what is blameworthy. The imitation of animals has been mentioned in the Quran and Sunnah in the context of dispraise. This includes clothes that embody the form of an animal or a human, and wearing them is more forbidden than wearing ordinary clothes that have animal pictures on them.
