Question
I have been asked to make a carpet with the picture of (last supper) which painted by Davici I. As you know it's the best picture. I'm fearing that to draw the picture of animals and human being is bad so can I do this or not? Ok that is all what I want to ask.
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. We ask Allaah to exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.
It is not allowed to draw the "last supper" picture for the following reasons:
A) It contains a likeness of Jesus 
and drawing the picture of any prophet is forbidden.
B) It is a religious symbol of Christians; drawing a non-Muslim religious symbol is cooperating in their actions, which is not allowed.
Allaah knows best.
