FaceApp is a Major Sin!

Mohsin Hasan Mumtaz
FaceApp is a Major Sin!
The recent trend on social media is FaceApp which allows editing and rending an image to an older version of you. Dear Muslim, know that image making is a major sin in Islam. A major sin, not a small one.
Even though there is difference of opinion among the scholars with some of them allowing digital photography, all of them agree that editing these photos (FaceApp or Photoshop etc) and changing the features of the animate being (human or animal) is Haram and enters into the severe prohibited act of image making.
Abdullaah ibn Mas'ood (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Those who will be most severely punished by Allaah on the Day of Resurrection will be the image-makers." (Reported by al-Bukhaari)
Ibn 'Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him and his father) reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Every image-maker will be in the Fire, and for every image that he made a soul will be created for him, which will be punished in the Fire." Ibn 'Abbaas said: "If you must do that, make pictures of trees and other inanimate objects." (Reported by Muslim)
If you didn't know, now you know and remember Allaah is Oft-Forgiving.
Beware, don't be a sheeple following every trend and movement. Alhamdulillaah there are enough halal ways of having fun.
Sincerely yours,
