What is the wisdom behind prohibiting the drawing of animate beings, even though they are sometimes used in religious and meaningful designs?

The reasons for the prohibition of animating images of living beings were previously explained in Fatwa no. 35203. For details, refer to the section on the reasons for imaging in the رسالة (treatise) by Dr. Muhammad Wasil: (أحكام التصوير في الفقه الإسلامي) "Rulings on Imaging in Islamic Jurisprudence," from page 148 to page 161.
