Question: [What’s your opinion about] a full-body image, but it has no eyes and no nose?
Answer: The head is to be cut off, and [then] there’s no problem.
Question: They use a trick and say, “We will not put eyes [in the picture]”?
Answer: No. Jibrīl ordered that the head of the statue be cut off [not just the eyes].
