Note 1
(1) The statement: "made two cushions from it": In Fatawa Qadi Khan: It is disliked to pray with images in front, above, to the right, left, or on clothing. For a carpet, there are two narrations, with the correct one being that it is not disliked if one does not prostrate on the images. If the image is small or headless, there is no issue. Thus, it is stated in Al-Mirqat.
