The question

Is it permissible to continue a da'wah project that includes drawings of living beings, given the hadiths that forbid drawing, and does the ruling on hand-drawn images differ from that on three-dimensional images?

The answer

Drawing animate beings, whether by hand or computer, is prohibited because it imitates Allah's creation. An exception is made for what has been permitted, such as children's toys, for a legitimate purpose. Therefore, it is advisable to avoid this project if it does not meet the permissible conditions and to replace it with other permissible projects, remembering that sustenance is predetermined, that what is with Allah can only be attained through obedience to Him, and that whoever abandons something for the sake of Allah, Allah will compensate him with something better.
