ios - What size should TabBar images be?

Question

I have icons for a tabBar of size 100.

I checked at Apple's Human Interface Guidelines of 2013 and it says the image size should be 30x30 / 60x60.

But as the height of tab bar controller is 50, I kept the size of the image at 50x50.

Now, when I run the project, I see the ugly design below:

Any idea what size images I should use so that the design will be perfect?

Note: I am not writing text also (e.g. Home, Search, etc). The text of the tab button is there in the image itself.

According to the Apple Human Interface Guidelines:

@1x : about 25 x 25 (max: 48 x 32)

@2x : about 50 x 50 (max: 96 x 64)

@3x : about 75 x 75 (max: 144 x 96)
