[Machine] I heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: "Whoever creates an image, Allah, the Almighty and Glorious, will punish him on the Day of Judgment until he gives life to it, and he will never be able to give life to it." A man then asked the Prophet, startled and his face turning pale, "What if it is only a small figure?" Ibn Abbas said to him, "Woe to you! If you insist on making something, then choose a tree or anything that does not have a soul in it."  

سَمِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ صَوَّرَ صُورَةً فَإِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ مُعَذِّبُهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ حَتَّى يَنْفُخَ فِيهَا الرُّوحَوَلَيْسَ بِنَافِخٍ فِيهَا أَبَدًا قَالَ فَرَبَا لَهَا الرَّجُلُ رَبْوَةً شَدِيدَةً فَاصْفَرَّ وَجْهُهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَيْحَكَ إِنْ أَبَيْتَ إِلَّا أَنْ تَصْنَعَ فَعَلَيْكَ بِهَذَا الشَّجَرِ وَكُلِّ شَيْءٍ لَيْسَ فِيهِ رُوحٌ  

[Machine] I am a human and my livelihood comes from the work of my hands. I create these images. Ibn Abbas said, "I only have what I have heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , who said, 'I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "Whoever makes a picture, Allah will punish him on the Day of Resurrection, until he breathes life into it, and it will never be given life."' The man became pale and his face turned yellow, then he said, 'Woe to you! If you insist on creating, then create something without a soul.'"  

إِنِّي إِنْسَانٌ إِنَّمَا مَعِيشَتِي مِنْ صَنْعَةِ يَدَيَّ وَأَنَا أَصْنَعُ هَذِهِ التَّصَاوِيرَ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسَ لَا أَجِدُ لَكَ إِلَّا مَا سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ صَوَّرَ صُورَةً فَإِنَّ اللهَ يُعَذِّبُهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ حَتَّى يَنْفُخَ فِيهَا وَلَيْسَ بِنَافِخٍ فِيهَا أَبَدًا» قَالَ فَرَبَا لَهَا الرَّجُلُ رَبْوَةً شَدِيدَةً وَاصْفَرَّ وَجْهُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ «وَيْحَكَ إِنْ أَبَيْتَ إِلَّا أَنْ تَصْنَعَ فَعَلَيْكَ بِهَذَا الشَّجَرِ وَكُلِّ شَيْءٍ لَيْسَ فِيهِ رَوْحٌ»  

[Machine] "O father of Abbas, I am a person whose livelihood is only through the work of my hands. I create these images." Ibn Abbas said to him, "Lower your voice, lower your voice! I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: 'Whoever creates an image in this world will be ordered on the Day of Resurrection to breathe life into it, and he will not be able to.' He would have a severe penalty for this action, and he said, 'Woe to you! If you insist on creating, then restrict yourself to trees and that which does not have a soul.'"  

يَا أَبَا عَبَّاسٍ إِنِّي إِنْسَانٌ إِنَّمَا مَعِيشَتِي مِنْ صَنْعَةِ يَدِي إِنِّي أَصْنَعُ هَذِهِ التَّصَاوِيرَ فَقَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ادْنُهُ ادْنُهُ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ صَوَّرَ صُورَةً فِي الدُّنْيَا كُلِّفَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَنْ يَنْفُخَ فِيهَا الرُّوحَ وَلَيْسَ بِنَافِخٍ قَالَ فَرَبَا لَهَا الرَّجُلُ رَبْوَةً شَدِيدَةً وَقَالَ وَيْحَكَ إِنْ أَبَيْتَ إِلَّا أَنْ تَصْنَعَ فَعَلَيْكَ بِالشَّجَرِ وَمَا لَيْسَ فِيهِ رُوحٌ
