...wa aleikom al salam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu<br /><br />well if she is Iranian, then most probably (if not definitely) she is shi'a. And as we know, shi'a have different rulings since they reject a big part of the sunnah. some things they make haram and we know it's halal, other things they make halal and we know it's haram. in the end, Allah will judge us all on the Judgement Day and then we'll see who really was following the true message...<br /><br />But unfortunately I also have seen some Muslims here in Egypt having dogs, not because they think it's halal, but because they want to follow the "western trend" and it makes me sad really.<br /><br />I had a dog, my parents still have it. Of course I wouldn't throw the dog when I became Muslim, but I also would try my best to be away from it so that I would be purified for prayer.<br /><br />Although dogs are not always bad, they are just bad in terms of purification. They are very loyal animals and they guard the person's belongings and they can even fight if the owner is in danger. But not having a huge house or even something like crops to guard, there's no point on having a dog. And, for my experience, as I've grown up with dogs in the family, I know that dogs deserve much more than a life in an appartment... They even develop diseases and end up being affected for not doing a lot of exercise. My cousins in the south of Portugal, for example, have dogs for hunting and guarding the farms. This is allowed. And dogs are much healthier doing this, mashaAllah.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04062459028724852737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8023140630565578695.post-64555116624278717992011-10-31T10:10:49.565+02:002011-10-31T10:10:49.565+02:00Assalamualaikum sis,
It's been a long time si...Assalamualaikum sis,<br /><br />It's been a long time since I went through Google readers. Been really busy and I don't know what with. Here in Malaysia, we has been brought up to be scared of dogs. So we (Malay Muslims) do not have dogs. In my place here there are a lot of Iranians,one of them asked me if I am a Muslim? I mean, I dressed as a Muslim, it surprises me, unlike her, she is not a hijabi. She said she is a Muslim, fasting and all. One day I saw her kissing and hugging our neighbours dog, this surprises me more.<br /><br />Jazakallah for article.The Black Jubahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03307061281835083360noreply@blogger.com
