Riyad as-Salihin, 1681
Ibn 'Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them) said:
I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying, "Whosoever makes a picture, will be punished on the Day of Resurrection, and will be asked to infuse soul therein, which he will not be able to do." <b>[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]</b>.
وعنه قال: سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول:
من صور في الدنيا، كُلف أن يَنفخ فيها الروح يوم القيامة وليس بنافخ
((متفق عليه)).

2) Recompense is of the same type of action. He who tries to emulate the creation of Allah will be punished by Allah on the Day of Judgment by the images he has made.
