The Understanding Of Biblical Prohibition Of Images
We need not to speculate if we have a clear injunction in the Quran about the criteria of prohibition. The verse starts with the word Innamaa, which means only these are prohibited. We do not infer from Ahadith, but rather apply the said criteria to whatever is quoted or misquoted or quoted with missing details in Ahadith. That what is prohibited to keep, its making is also prohibited. Ijma and Tawatur applies to Sunnah and transmission of Quran, not to the concepts and understanding of problems.
