Question

I have a sister who goes to high school and her teacher has asked her to draw some animations which include living beings, as birds or even humans. my question is that if her teacher doesnt allow any other option in this matter so what should she do???. she has to pass that class too. we r really worried so if u could reply it soon it will be a great help. jazak ALLAH khair

Answer

We suggest that a written request be sent to the principal of the school requesting an exemption based on one's religious convictions. If that is unsuccessful, then your sister will be excused.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
