Abu Zar’ah narrated that I went with Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) to (the house of) Marwan bin Hakam in Madinah Munawwarah. There he saw a painter on the roof who was making a picture. He (Abu Hurairah) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say (Allah the Exalted says): Who can be more unjust than the one who tries to create like My creation? If he is so proud, then he should create a grain, he should create an ant.
