It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade keeping pictures in the house, and at the time of the conquest of Makkah, when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was at the place of Batha, he ordered Sayyiduna Umar to go to the Ka'bah and erase all the pictures present in it, and he did not enter the Ka'bah until all the pictures in it had been erased.
