Question

Q. Please help. I know we are not allowed to hang any pictures in home as frames or on display of living animals or people. But what abt those on our food like on cereal boxes and other items.

I thought if we kept them away in cupboards it would be ok? Its not left in open areas. Pls advise

Answer

After use, these should be covered or kept away in the cupboard. They should not be left out and displayed when not in use.

And Allah Knows Best

Ask Jamiat KZN

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Jamiatul Ulama KZN. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
