Sometimes at school we have to do projects in which contains picutes.(eg. familey/friends picutes, or pictures out of magazines) i realize picutes are haram however if i tell the teacher that i dont have any pictures she they wont believe me and they insist
Praise be to Allah.
Pictures are haram as stated in the question. From the hadeeth about the curtain which ‘Aa’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) used as a screen in her house, it is clear that pictures are haram, even those which do not cast a shadow (i.e., two-dimensional). The fact that these pictures are for educational purposes does not justify allowing them in this case. Making images is haram except in cases of necessity, because in cases of necessity, things which are ordinarily forbidden may be permitted. Although some (scholars) permit such pictures for educational purposes, to be on the safe side, it is better not to allow it, especially since the aim can be achieved through other means.

If you denounce them and do not take part in this project, you will have freed yourself from blame and there will be no sin on you. May Allah help us and you to do all that is good.
