Answer:

 

Toys dolls for child

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 8.151 Narrated by Aisha

I used to play with dolls in the presence of the Prophet (saws), and my girl friends also used to play with me. When the Messenger of Allah (saws) used to enter (my dwelling place) they used to hide themselves, but the Prophet (saws) would call them to join and play with me.

 

In light of the above quoted guidance, the absolute majority of the scholars and the jurists in Islam are of the opinion that there is absolutely no harm if a child amuses themselves and/or plays with dolls or toys of animate objects, nor is there any harm in selling such toys and dolls. And Allah Alone Knows Best.

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

 

 

Burhan
