Question
Answer
Picture frames and photographs of animate objects or animate objects/toys are not permissible.
Pictures of inanimate objects e.g. trees, mountains, etc. are permissible.
Ibn Abbas (RA) narrates, 'I heard the messenger of Allah saying,"Every picture-maker will be in the fire. A life will be created for every picture that the picture-maker made, and he will be tortured in Hell." If you have to make pictures (says Ibn Abbaas) then make a picture of a tree or such things which are inanimate.' (Bukhari and Muslim)
And Allah knows best.
