Making realistic art of living beings
Question
Is it kufr to make realistic art of living beings? I know it's haram and major sin but is it kufr?
Answer
It is not kufr but it is haraam and a major sin. However, if one regards this sin to be halaal, then this will amount to kufr.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
