Question
Would it be permissible for a child to watch a cartoon about Habil and Qabil which was made by Muslims?Answer
Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,
According to the cautious majority opinion, it would be considered picture-making, and thus impermissible.
However, some scholars (including notable Hanafi jurists I studied with) consider wholesome cartoons for children to be an exception.
And Allah knows best.
Wassalam,
Faraz Rabbani
