This is actually a very interesting read, Ive learned something today.

To many Muslims, any image of the prophet Muhammad is sacrilegious, but the ban has not always been absolute and there is a small but rich tradition of devotional Islamic art going back more than seven centuries that does depict Gods messenger.
It began with exquisite miniatures from the 13th century, scholars say. Commissioned from Muslim artists by the rich and powerful of their day, they show almost every episode of Muhammads life as recounted in the Quran and other texts, from birth to death and ascension into heaven.


Warning: contains historically made depictions of the prophet Muhammad, so Im sticking the link in spoiler tags.
