ANSWER:

You must cover the statue of the horse and remove the cross

QUESTION: Is it sinful to play chess if the pieces resemble figures like a horse (knight) or a king with a cross, considering Islam forbids making or using statues? Since the cross is a major Christian symbol, does using such a piece count as imitation of other faiths or shirk? If sinful, is it a major sin that could take someone out of Islam?
