منصور نے مسلم بن صبیح ( ابو ضحیٰ ) سے روایت کی ، انھوں نے کہا : میں مسروق کے ساتھ ایک مکا ن میں تھا جس میں حضرت مریم علیہ السلام کی تصاویر تھیں ( یا مجسمے تھے ) مسروق نے کہا : یہ کسریٰ کی تصاویر ہیں ؟ میں نے کہا : نہیں یہ مریم علیہ السلام کی تصاویرہیں ۔ مسروق نے کہا : میں حضرت عبد اللہ بن مسعود رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ سے سنا وہ کہہ رہے تھے : رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرما یا : " قیامت کے دن سب سے زیادہ عذاب تصویریں ( یا مجسمے ) بنا نے والوں کو ہو گا ۔ "

Muslim b. Subaih reported: I was with Masriuq in the house which had the portrayals of Mary (hadrat Maryan). Thereupon Masriuq said: These are portraits of Kisra. I said: No, these are of Mary. Masruq said: I heard Abdullah b, Mas'ud as saying Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) had said: The most grievously tormented people on the Day of Resurrection would be the painters of pictures. (Muslim said): I read this before Nasr b. 'Ali at-Jahdami and he read it before other narrators, the last one being Ibn Sa'id b Abl at Hasan that a person came to Ibn 'Abbas and said: I am the person who paints pictures; give me a religious verdict about them. He (Ibn 'Abbas) said to him: Come near me (still further). He came near him so much so that he placed his hand upon his head and said: I am going to narrate to yor what I heard from Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ). I heard him say: All the painters who make pictures would be in the fire of Hell. The soul will be breathed in every picture prepared by him and it shall punish him in the Hell, and he (Ibn 'Abbas) said: If you have to do it at all, then paint the pictures of trees and lifeless things; and Nasr b. 'Ali confirmed it.
