Is It Permissible to Have Anime Figures in My Room?

As-salamu alaykum, I'm thinking it's fine as long as you don't intend to worship or idolize them, but please correct me if I'm mistaken. Also, I'm not sure if this is just cultural or actually part of Islam, but my aunt mentioned that jinns might reside in figures or anything that looks like a living being. Would appreciate any insights from a fiqh perspective.

Your aunt's warning about jinn is a cultural belief, not an Islamic ruling. Most scholars agree images are only haram if worshipped. You're fine.

Good point about intention. If it's just for decoration and you don't worship them, I think it's okay. My imam said something similar about respecting the purpose behind objects.

I have a few figures myself, never thought of it as shirk. As long as your heart is clear, it shouldn't be an issue.

Bro, just avoid ones with inappropriate clothing to be safe. Keep it halal.

My mom said the same thing about jinn! It's a common cultural thing here. I'd ask a trusted scholar though, they know best.
