Question

I make business cards and sometimes I need templates or pictures (not living organisms) so I take them from Google. It is Halal that I take pics from Google and add in my business cards and then publish it?

Answer

If it is pictures of inanimate objects, it is permissible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
