Why are people not in Islamic art?

Islam religion is the religion of monotheism. Islam is an Arabic word that means submission to God, the one and only one God with no partner, no son, no companion, no father, and no associate. Images of human or any living creature are banned in Islamic art to avoid the possibility that these images may lead to polytheism and might lead people to the wrong path of worshiping partners to God. You can see many people through out the world worshiping images and paying full respect and submission to them. However, Muslims, as the people of monotheism, worship and submit to God alone with no partners. Per Islam religion, it is allowed to use in the Islamic art images of nature ; as trees, rivers and waters, houses, water falls, skies and clouds....etc.

Why do some Muslims use the human figure male or female eg Mogul art yet others say that to do this is against Islam?

The prohibition on images in Islam, first, is a Sunni prohibition that Shiites do no accept. This is why, to this day, you can find pictures of Muhammad freely sold in Iran by Muslims for Muslims. Second, the prohibition has waxed and waned in importance. It is much more important today as Muslims use it as a way to assert their identity and uniqueness and resist the homogenizing effects of assimilation. Historically, this was much less of a concern.
