<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 228685, member: 2844&quot;]The Quran prohibits idolatry. There are many different interpretations of idolatry, some Islamic schools of thought adhere to a total prohibition of the depiction of humans and animals, others just take it to be idolatry in the strictest sense of the word and do depict human beings, and many are somewhere in between these two interpretations. Some antique Qurans even have representations of human beings.</p><p><br /></p><p>A page from Siyer-i Nebi (The Life of the Prophet) which dates from 1388. Muhammad as a baby, with his wetnurse. The faces of Muhammad and his mother Amina are veiled, which is traditional when depicting Muhammad and relatives.</p><p><img src="http://www.eslam.de/bildergalerien/s/siyer-i-nebi/siyer_i_nebi_bildergalerie02.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Your rug is made in Egyptian Revival style, not for the Egyptian market.
