Imagine being lucky enough to having shaykh YQ in your local mosque.
Walahi!!!! A friend attends EPIC and I'm soooo envious of her in a good way. Alhamdulillah
@@maymah Hey sister how often does the Shaykh lead Salah there? Only Fridays or all 5 days or irregularly?
Yeah wallai that’s a blessing
I’m just happy I can listen to him on RUclips.
And always stick to the Mosque with the Sheikh for knowledge❤️
Summary:
Quran explicitly talks about dog in 3 places.
- People of the Cave had a dog, but they may have different shariah than ours
- Example of a wild dog in the Quran
- Quran (Surah Maida) allows Muslims to eat hunt that has been killed by their hunting dog, and training these dogs in hunting is an act praised by Allah. Therefore by allowing dogs to be kept for hunting, and allowing training these dogs, it means the owner and trainer has to come very close to the animal, touch them, pet them, earn their trust.
Is the dog as a whole najas?
Hadith about cleaning a dish licked by a bowl seven times, the first with sand.
This denotes extra cleaning.
Shafi, Hambali - whole dog is najas
Hanafi - only saliva is najas
Maliki - dog is not najas, nothing of the dog is najas
So how does Maliki explain hadith?
- just because you wash something doesn't mean it's najas. Mucus is not najas but you wash it. Not every disgusting thing is najas.
- you are allowed to eat the hunt of your hunting dog (when you say Bismillah and release the dog), and for sure it has saliva on it, but nothing is mentioned
- dogs walked in and out of the mosque of Prophet pbuh, and no one stopped them or did anything. If dogs were impure, they would be prevented from entering the mosque.
- wash it seven times is not because of najas but there must be some medical reason (Ibn Rushd)
Owning Dog
- Hadith of owning a dog, except hunting, protection or agriculture dogs, good deeds get diminished by certain amount every day
- angel Jibreel didn't enter house where there is a dog (a puppy was present)
By unanimous consent, dog that is used for a reason that is allowed, it is allowed to own the dog.
Vast majority (for example Ibn Nabawi) said if there is a maslahah / hajah (benefit), it is allowed. So a seeing eye dog, emotional therapy dog (for example for autism).
Three madhabs (except Maliki) allow dog ownership for hajah (some beneficial use) only.
Malikis are more relaxed about owning dogs without any benefit. They do not say it is not haram but makrooh.
- They say scholars never prevented people from owning dogs nor did Sultans prevent it.
So what do Malikis say about the hadith?
Ibn Hibban, Abdul Barr and others say:
- this hadith of Jibreel is specific to the house of Prophet Muhammad pbuh where wahi comes in
- it is impossible that angels cannot enter where there is a dog. Kiraman Katibeen is always there.
- some said this is only for Jibreel
- many said this is about angels liking or disliking. What angels do not like is not automatically haram, for example garlic/strong odours. Wording of hadith does not indicate tahrim.
Majority opinion is owning a dog without a hajah (benefit) is haram, and playing with a dog or having it for pleasure is not a hajah. Malikis mostly say it is makrooh (best avoided).
Footnote: Prophet Muhammad pbuh wanted all dogs killed (at one point) but he was stopped by Allah, and Allah said dogs are one of the ummahs, so they cannot be commanded to be killed.
You cannot be cruel to dogs; Allah forgave a prostitute for being kind to a dog.
Jazakallah khair for this
Allah bless you bro
Thanks so much for this summary 🙏
Omg! I listened to the lecture the first time, then I wanted to note the points mentioned in it, so I had to listen to it again and I had to pause to write the notes down So I spent roughly 2 hours altogether. And only after I finished , I saw your comment lol. Could've just copied and pasted it. Haha
You did a great job. I just wanted an explanation what Malikis told for the Hadith one qiraat will be reduced for keeping dog unnecessarily.
Dear Sheikh please do a series on the rise and fall of Al Andalus 🙂
I second this
I love the details of this lecture. Hopefully it will help fix the negative views upon dogs within a lot of Muslims
I would invite you all to look at the fatwa of khaled abou el fadl (a thinking scholar) if you are unsatisfied with the idea of dogs being haram to keep. He has a long video of this online as well ruclips.net/video/LzWGSaTlWGg/видео.html

السلام عليكم
جزاك الله خيرا
I have always been interested in this subject. I will check it out.
إن شاء الله
sadly most of the attitudes and negativity towards dogs are culturally induced. Some are so severe that merely looking at a dog is considered sinful. May Allah forgive us all.
@@drafunt Ameen. It’s so sad indeed. It just doesn’t make sense because having that negative view is what is actually very sinful.
After I became Muslim, I lived with my parents and we had a dog whom I had grown up with. I was taught that dogs are impure when wet and I had to clean with dirt if a dog licked me, so I started acting very cautiously around her, and I think she could sense something was wrong. My parents also thought it was strange, and so it made Islam seem strange to them. Years later I learned about the spectrum of opinions about dogs and felt guilty for how I treated her.
May الله reward you for your pure intentions . :)
Glad you feel guilty. You poor dog! People like you give Islam a bad name. In sha Allah your parents gave your dog all the love you didn't show.
Masha Allah Tabrakallah Shaikh, as usual you never fail to educate the ummah. I am so grateful that Allah allows us to learn His deen thru you via social media. I know the shaikh is in London now. We in Australia will continue to wait patiently for him to come over. May Allah grant our wish. Amin.
42 min. Years of asking why Muslims in general disliked and in many cases hate dogs, answered in the most eloquent manner in 42min. I’m at peace with this nagging question. Tq and may He reward u.
Interesting, informative & beneficial 👌🏽
JazakAllahu khayran Shaykhna
So glad you covered this topic. Really needed this clarity.
This level of detail is so useful. Hard to find unless one researches deeply into the books themselves which takes time and expertise. JazakAllahu Khair
Jazakallah khair for answering questions that are so relevant to our time
Sheikh, stories of the Prophets weekly. Pleaseeeeee
Very interesting and educational informative lecture. Shukran my favorite 😍❣️ Sheikh
MashaAllah, great information.
Wow, excellent as always. Jazakallah for an in depth analysis with a clear explanation and discussion. I love listening and benefiting from your lectures Alhamdolillah.
Masha Allah! Jazakallahu khairan for the knowledge♥️
May Allah bless you all!
You too
Jazakumullah Khayran Sheik YQ
Thank you for this detailed lecture.
angels have wings with feathers, the dog will think bird of course and follow it's instincts
Nice explanation
Great public speaking skills!
JazzakAllahu Khairan...
During the time of the Prophet pbuh dogs acted as garbage control. They would eat trash and tend to congregate in those areas. Due to this, many were disgusted and worried about disease. That is no longer the case. Dogs now have vaccines and are kept indoors. It is even stated that dogs roamed the masjid while Prophet pbuh prayed. There's nothing negative about dogs in Quran and the hadith regarding them were narrated by a known cat lover who also had very questionable narrations on women.
Nice alpha fiqh breakdown
Plenty of well-off muslims only wanna own dogs as an imitation of the non-muslims. Fyi thousands of muslims need your money more than your whims. And also grow your own personality guys. Just saying it kindly.
Still, jzk to Sh. Qadhi for his talk.
I guess cats are cool to
Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu brother Dr.Yasir Qadhi...you are right 💯..I freak out whenever I see a dog coming my way, in fact I'm scared of all pets no matter cats dogs or others...
Al hamde li Allah. الحمد لله
If it is sinful to own a dog without a hajja, then will you be rewarded for owning a dog for a hajja? Like having sex with not your wife is sinful vs your wife is rewarded because we avoid a sinful act?
It was nice to see our brother and sister (well maybe not the sister lol) that able to listen directly to Sheikh YQ. May Allah bless this congregation. Amiin.
Assalamu Alaikum .
What is the Maliki position on the Hadith about good deeds getting diminished? Looks like this point is not covered. Did I miss it?
If Allah allows us to eat the meat which contained the dog saliva then i agree with scholars that said the dog saliva is not najas but disgusting or contains specific bacteria etc. Allah knows best
mashaallah
What is the nashide in the beginning and end
Actually for me, it is obvious, that keeping a dog diminish good deeds. Dogs have very close relation with their owner, they demand his attention and time and in this way distract from spiritual life. That is, what I see every day (in Vienna lots of people have dogs, sometimes unfortunately as replacement for family).
Islam is explaining how to clean the saliva of dog. It mean we need to clean with proper way. From the primitive age to modern day easy way of cleaning with sand. If we can clean alternative way which will kill the germs 🦠. It will be acceptable.
Nothing prevents petting a dog 🐕. But problem is cleaning.
isn't there another hadith that the black dog is a shaytaan, or as he said salah ALLAAHU alaihi wasalam?
Why would a black dog be a shaitan? It's just an animal
It was particularly about a kind of black dog with white spot. Scholars says it's for that time when Prophet was there
@@Ahmed-ob6ec I don't think that was the meaning of the hadith, that every blaxk dog is a shaytaan, rather that if & when the jinn/shayateen take the forms of visible living creatures, if that form is a dog it is a black dog with a white spot as mentioned by the brother below, although I"m not sure I agree with the brother that "this only applied at the time of the prophet salah ALLAAHU alaihi wasalam" WALLAAHU ALAM
there is widespread opinion that if & when a jinn/shaytaan appeared in the form of a visible creature/human, it would not have any shadow in the sunlight, and this is how we can differentiate between a real and jinn visible animal/human, just like the candle flame without shadow, the reason being the originalty of the jinn creation from smokeless fire
WALLAAHU ALAM
So ,in the end,you can keep a pet dog?
According to majority of scholars, except for hunting, guarding, protection or any legitimate needs it is not permissible to keep a dog. Except for Malikis, they allow it but makruh.
According to majority No. According to Malikis yes.
I think for keeping a dog and train to guard the house as well...
Subhhanallah. Keeping a dog is quite EXPENSIVE IN THE WEST. And There are children DYING FOR HUNGER. What is more important, SAVING A LIFE OF A CHILD OR SPEND THE MONEY ON A DOG? With the money spent on a dog in your, we can support a WHOLE FAMILY in some countries. Subhhanallah
Because it is allowed to have a dog for a legitimate reason.
You can still give sadaqa when you can make ends meet.
Only lazy and egoistic people find excuses to not give sadaqa.
It's true. We can support one orphan food and clothes in that much money
I'm not against owning dogs but I rather save a life or help building a masjid. Just my opinion though :)
Same for cats. You must go to the vet and buy them food. So are you against cats as well?
I'm 22 and hate dogs
25, same. I wouldn't ever go out of my to harm it, though I strongly detest them.
Just switch to cats they are much cuter anyways lol
Use common sense rather than sharia
muslim should look at zoonosis and take care of this janus
Sheick you didn’t speak about your deeds are getting smaller or half is taken away because you own a dog
It could be because if you don't get any benefit by keeping a dog but still own a dog, then you are spending money on a dog that could be and should be spent for a nobler cause like feeding the poor and the hungry. I think this is the reason for losing benefit of good deeds being taken away :)
@@syedhasan8181 Then it would apply to any pet and not just a dog.
@@Ahmed-ob6ec Yes, that is true. In Islam we are encouraged to work for the Hereafter only and regard this world as only a temporary abode. That means, we should live a minimal life like our Prophet (PBUH) did, and if we don't do that and spend money in the way of Allah, then it affects the strength of our Iman, and when the Iman is affected, the amount of credit we receive for our good deeds is also affected. This opinion of mine is based on two hadiths saying: (1) There will be people whose good deeds will be like the mountains, but what they will do in their private life will eat away all those good deeds. (1) The amount of credit for prayer that a scholar will receive will exceed that of the one who is ignorant. I think this is because of the increased Iman of a scholar because of his knowledge. So, Iman affects the amount of credit and emphasis on worldly wants over the Hereafter affects Iman :)
@Orient Express Yes, I totally agree with you. But kindness to animals is also appreciated by Allah, and Allah is kind to people who are kind. So, if a Muslim is rich enough and have some money left after taking care of fellow human beings, then I suppose he can help a disabled animal taking it in as a pet for the sake of Allah seeking Allah's pleasure and not only his own :)
@Orient Express Yes :)
Wallahi I've never been more disappointed listening to an islamic lecture. I was also told by my sister to avoid listening this shiekh but this lecture proves without doubt this brother likes to emphasizes the works of people who allow things most muslims disagree with. This shiekh spent nearly 10 mins (minute 16 to 24) talking about how it is not najas and going through every single source proving the minority view. Just before that he kept on bashing about the benefits of having hunting dogs. this lecture should be call ' Why you must own a dog'
This is a blatant exaggeration. Dr.YQ made it very clear at the end of the lecture that keeping dogs should be avoided unless if a necessity.
Also, he cited the maliki view and cited a well known Maliki scholar BUT he also mentioned the most correct opinion was of Ibn Taymiyyah's and the Hanafi madhab.
He also made it clear that just because an opinion states a dog is not najas, does not mean you can keep one as simply a pet, so I don't know where you got that idea from.
You're free to feel disappointed.
However, he gave the points of view of the different madhabs.
The time he spent on each view doesn't imply any preference.
You should let the information given speak not the amount of it.
It was an academic choice to distribute time this way.
Keep crying your takfiri tears. Shayk Yq is on point here
@@RayyanMemonTheJoker Well broken down Rayyan +1
U just proved without doubt that in this world u will always find difficult people whose mind are focused on negativity..
Interesting, informative & beneficial 👌🏽
