Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:
No command of the Shari‘ah is devoid of blessings; the more the mirror of a person’s heart is polished with faith and righteous deeds, the greater share he will receive of its goodness and blessings. Otherwise, deprivation is certain, and despite performing general good deeds, being deprived of blessings and being overwhelmed by tribulations is in fact the result of those evils which we knowingly, deliberately, or out of heedlessness continue to commit.

Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
It is understood that if a garment with images is spread on the ground where feet are placed, then there is no harm in it, or if the image is cut in such a way that the face is not complete. The details have already been mentioned previously.
