I am alone in life and I wanted to have a dog to help me to be happy. Because among the animal pets, dogs is I think the smartest and funniest. And I am so thankful for your answer.
JazakAllahukhairan Ya Sheikh, for finally giving an answer on service/guide dogs. I may soon need a guide dog, and haven’t been able to find an Islamic ruling on this until now.
My guard dogs saved us from 5 baby cobras over days during the lockdown, they killed 3 but didn't allow us to come near it. And they guard the property non stop all night. Working with dogs is an amazing journey. They aren't shayateen!
Im very curious about getting a guard dog, where do you keep your dog outside e.g does it have a shelter or something or do you leave it outside and it it happy by only staying outside?
May Allah reward you and bless you always. I have received so much hatred by my muslim brothers and sisters who told me that I was going to Hell and was not a muslim for having a service dog but I love Allah and love our beloved Prophet (peace and blessings upon him) that I practice Islam in private and stop wearing hijab to avoid muslims from being mean to me. I am deaf and have epilepsy. When my neurologist did an EEG on my brain, durning that 20 minutes of EEG test, my dog licked my hand 3 times. The neurologist who was preforming the test and seeing my brain activity noticed that my dog licked my hand exactly when I was having those 3 seizures. The neurologist told me that I must listen to my dog when he licks my hand as he can sense my brain activity so I sit on the floor to avoid falling and getting injured. I have scientific evidence of this - it is not an opinion. Besides, being deaf helps me navigate the world, crossing streets and protects me and alerts me when someone is coming to my home. I rely on my dog so much that I cannot live without him but the hatred I have received from muslims, even from my own mother, is cruel. I live a very isolated life, away from family and the mosque, and sadly I don't have any muslim friends. Please keep up the good work and please talk about being kind to animals and to people with disabilities who rely on dogs for survival. May Allah bless you and protect you, thank you from my heart.
In consideration of the real danger of contracting rabies in ancient times this guidance is understandable. It’s a scientific fact rabies is transferred by saliva. Today we have the vaccine. I have a little dog, she is not for hunting nor guarding, but solely my companion. I cannot accept that she is considered haram, she gives me such joy - but if I’d lived thousands of years ago I’d consider it valid advice.
Okay, the Maliki school does allow some concessions for that. They are not as strict with dogs as are the other three schoolds. Point is however some rules need not be justified always by wisdom. Culture keeps changing. Times keep changing. God forbid if we have an apocalypse like situation or a world war three where you no longer have the rabies vaccine, will you still consider keeping one as a pet? Well ofcourse you would. I mean I find them cute and adorable myself. But I do not have a legitimate reason to keep one so I keep away, solely because the majority of scholars mention that without need keeping a dog is unjustified. But if people are lonely or depressed or have a medical reason, these may be legitimate reasons enough. Funny thing about Islam is, most of the times the justification of the legitimate reason in areas like this is between you and God. No one else can come between you two.
"...she gives me such joy..." Will your dog aid you in the akhirah? You aren't even trying to bring up an argument regarding differences of opinions. You just blatantly conform to your desires.
thank you sheikh! my understanding is that Dog is permissible provided you have a utility in mind, just having a dog for the sake of having a pet is not justified but having a dog to fulfill any important need is permissible, this actually makes sense, subhanAllah
Never understood why good deeds would be taken away if you have a dog, it almost sounds like having a dog is almost as bad as doing major sins every day...at least you can repent but good deeds taken away doesn’t come back
For protection, I would recommend a German Shepherd. This breed of dog is most famous for their aggressive behaviour to intruder and their loyalties. They're mostly used in Military.
But if you rather wanting a cute one, then a Husky is what is best. It's not too big nor it is too aggressive. These breed are mostly known for their cute & funny behaviour and fluffy fur.
Thank you for the information! I might get sheeps, Insha Allah and I might need to get a shepherd dog. The dog would not go inside the house though, I would put everything it needs outside like food and water etc. But Insha Alla I will spend time with the dog to keep it happy, healthy, fit and not depressed just not inside and I will have a special outfit that I can change into for spending time with the dog but change out of that outfit once I'm done and wash myself very well.
Humanity applies to all creation. Remember the story of a woman who gives water to a thirsty dog gets into paradise for her good deed. Helping all creatures is a good deed.

I am always alone at home and I am a die hard dog lover. My husband is at office most of the time and I go through depression being alone. I have a dog and that helps me a lot due to lockdown. I make sure to keep a room for prayer and be clean before praying. Is this permissible??

JazakAllah Khair / Thanks in advance.
on the other hand. we have breeders. and breed lovers. they will buy huskys and german shephard. my dog is a stray rescue. do u see the difference. ? she has fully recoverd and now guards the house. she help us in our bad days. she alerts us for any stranger who is near us.
The dog should have a purpose or else you are not allowing it to follow its own fitrah. We have had several dogs in my family and they are so sweet and loving creatures. Dogs in the west are being treated like children and showered with love and resources. Just look at dogs of celebrities with expensive collars for maybe thousands of dollars and homeless people everywhere.
Dogs can serve a variety of purposes for humans such as for blind people, police etc(dogs are also quite intelligent friendly animals) though what makes you think that it is not okay for humans to keep dog as pets just like we do many other animals such as cats hamster etc? Or why do you think dog's "fitrah"(natural dispositosition) lacks keeping them in our house, having them as pets? Having dog as pet is not confined to the West of course many people from many different nonwestern cultures countries like India, China, Thailand etc do also keep dog as pets. And I am pretty sure almost any dog-cat or pet owner would value any human life to that of animals their pets and oppose extreme money spent on dogs while there are many hungry people outside. Though that seems to create a strawman and false dichotomy. Like you can also say this to a person who has cat as pet etc(there are also many people who spend too much on cats while many people are hungry) but having cat is not prohibited. Or owning dog as pet and helping hungry people etc is not mutually exclusive, one can do the two at the same time just like one can own cat, spend some money on them while helping others. Honestly, as an exchristian exmuslim agnostic prohibition against having dog pets was one of the most inane illogical rules. Just wondering how more muslims who are rather knowledgeable and at least trying to rationalize religion like Yassir Qadhi deals with this and it is the same old arguments statements I have all heard from other Muslims. Trying to justify those rules is extremely like rather than collecting the data and arriving at rules, conclusion; havinga set of rules delivered to you by so called god and embarking on tireless attempts to find/create irrelevant reasons for those rules. The main issue id that mamy of those reasons would also apply to other things like I can also list/find a plethora of reasons why one shouldnt have cats as pets if I made the same attempts as Tem.
i have rescued a dog. as one month pupy with broken bones and in winter with alot of fleas on her. we kept her save. got her trsatment done. non of the other muslims saw the puppy suffering in our street? why? we were not allowed to keep them home. but are we allowed to let them suffer?
What you did was actually required of us to do as Muslims. Rescuing a dog is a legitimate reason for having a dog. And as for the deen being know as a middle deen, not extreme nor loose, there can be exceptions to rulings under certain situations or circumstances. You’re good 👍🙂 and May Allah (sw) reward you for it 🤍
if one has never kept a dog or are exposed to it . how wil thy understand ghem. ? Dogs has some amazing capability which Allah has given them. hunting, guarding used to b in old days, but in new times. they r used with special kids, with blind , with old people, for depression, they areused in bomb disposals, or tracking, they r even used to detect diseases. they r good guard dogs. they can protect ur kids from sexual abusers. wat else do u want? xan any other animal wud do so much?
i hav so many questions, im a muslim, we work with animal rescues and welfare. Dogs are the most hated, the most suffering living being in our country. they are shot they r poisoned. a healthy dog is killed bruetly. if we were not allowed to keep dogs at home then why are we killing dogs who are outside our homes? ? ? ? ? we dont want them home.wedont want them in streets. where shud they go? on moon?. been a rescuers, i believe that to save them they shud be kept inside, to help them from been bruetly killed. if it was turkey where stray dogs live happily. i dont mind my strays on streets. but where i live. its not. also. we get cases like dog with three legs or paralyzed. our animal welfare give them home becus they cannot survive on their own or find food,they will die slowly with hunger. does Islam teaches us to let them die with immence suffering? arent we taught to protect alll wat Allah created.
A'uthubillah. This is so sad. This evil mindset is not from Islam - the Rasoul s.a.w specifically told us about a prostitute who went to heaven after giving water to a thirsty dog.
i keep my 3 dogs in the house have had dogs all my life I love nature and just wildlife I also kept snakes and reptiles and collected certain types of plants and take part in the global warming effort i love my planet but my dogs is part of the family is part of the pack I don't keep my dogs outsid
I think theres a missunderstanding in the comment section, just because youre lonely doesnt mean that you should get a dog, the dog jobs is to guard not cuddle with you, maybe a cat is better for you
@cupcakesaregreat Hadith are classifications... ranging from Mowdo'a (made up/weak naration) up until Sahih multiple stong narators report it in same text. First category we do not take rulings from and may explain the clash in commands.
@cupcakesaregreat it’s the same way it was transmitted people memorised both and narrated them and you have scholars that are there to verify the authenticity of ahadith and explain the context behind them
@cupcakesaregreat Again cupcakes. Seriously back off. You are not the first to raise doubts about hadith. Kharijites, Jahmiyya, Mutazilites up until this day to the Quraniyoon all have doubted the preservation of hadith. Ahle sunnah wal jamaah believe in the preservation of hadith. Yes there are opinions that differ and that is why we grade them. And that is why Quran takes precedence. But for example where in the Quran are the arkaan of salaah or even the names of all 5 prayers? Likewise the majority of practicality comes from sunna while theory is established from the Quran. So, yes if you still continue spreading your fitna here, I am going to find every comment of yours here and make your life miserable by quoting refutations.
Jazakhallah Khair Sheikh for giving a good explanation regarding owning a dog. But is it halal to buy n sell dogs for living. One of my known person is doing this business. Can anyone explain please. 🤔
The Quran mentions Dogs in good reference, in Surah Kahf a dog is a good guardian. and what they hunt with their mouths is Halal for us to eat. So even the known norm that their saliva is impure doesn't make any sense when Allah made Halal HUNTED ANIMALS From their MOUTHS without Thabiha. I dont know, I think we need to relook into ahadiths like this that dont match with the Quran 100%. And this is just one of the many reasons why we need to bring life back to Islamic sciences and scholarship, and scrutinize and make contemporary what is open to be contemporary. instead of just piling it all in books and letting them collect dust in shelfs saying "thats it, we know everything and no research or discovery needs to be made". No wonder Islamic Scholarship is in such a Pathetic state today.
Bro, the majority of schools state dogs saliva is najas. That is what the scholar is saying. But. One portion of the Maliki school believes that the dogs saliva is not najas. So if you are following this opinion then it is pretty much okay. I mean, you are following an opinion found within the confines of the fiqh. Although it is still a minority opinion it is still valid.
@@bustarhymes6188 Okay fine. You have a point. But without scholars to guide us, who will you turn to? Will you just pick up the Quran for every problem of yours? You need scholars bruv. They facilitate the understanding of Quran and sunnah.
@@saracentiano It is literally Halal to eat the Hunt (birds and other animals) of Dogs that they capture with their mouths, without even thabiha. Allah literally said this in the Quran, so how is it that their saliva is impure again when we can EAT what they capture with their MOUTHS. Islamic scholarship needs reinvigorating and for more Ijtihad to be done, instead of just sitting back and saying "the work is already done we have the answers to everything from hundreds of years ago".
@@saracentiano Then why does the Quran say, "The words of your Lord are complete in its truth and justice. Nothing can change His words - He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing. If you obeyed most of those on earth, they would lead you away from the path of Allah. They follow nothing but speculation - they are merely guessing (The Quran, 6:115), and "Rabbis and monks determined what was lawful and what was not instead of God" (The Quran, 9:31)?
@@e.k874 When he said "any dog that can be acquired legally" and "whatever the sharia allows" I took that to mean if the sharia allows you to own a dog in certain circumstances as a result you would be able to sell it as well. As for all dogs being halaal no matter what, yes he didn't mention anything. I guess he was giving an overview of the majority decision.
Not a sheikh but mawlid isn’t an Aqidah issue so mentioning Asharis make no sense. In regards to mawlid it is differed upon. One side views it as permissible as long as there are no sinful behaviours whilst another side views it as an innovation. Both positions are valid to follow and am genuinely annoyed that such a minor Fiqhi disagreement has become a big issue amongst Muslims online.
@Hamza 3 out of 4 madhabs view it as najis akhi, that's not a "major diffrence of opinion" hence why sh YQ said this is the "stronger opinion". Don't be hostile to your Muslim brothers. We must show adab and respect to each other.
@Hamza there's no single scholar who said the saliva of a dog is not najis. Yes, you can use the dog to hunt, guard and security. But if your dog hunt an animal and already started eating it then you can't eat it. Understand the teaching of the Glorious Quran, Hadith and Sunnah first before attacking your Bro here. And whether it's a hunting dog or the reason that goes with the teachings in Islam. You can't live with a dog in the same house.
@Hamza no you have to do your research correctly. Will you follow what Malick School of taught says or what the Prophet SAW said? Imam Malick just took his evidence from the quran which says you can eat what they catch (no one in this World understands and knows everything in the Glorious Quran) I don't know if you know that. But even in that case when the Dog start eating the animal, in this you can't eat it. Learn properly before calling me names. And it is clear that you can't keep a dog in your house whether they are in the category of hunting, guard and security. And it's not only because of diseases but the Creator knows everything and that's take the precautions first and that's why it is clear to keep the dog safe outside and most of the people keep dogs for other purposes and not base on Islam. The way you responded to people is not appropriate.
@@saliminadampha5309 Imam Malik didn't come up with the ruling out of his own whim, he gave supporting evidences, and no, it's not just from the Quran, but also ahadith regarding some dogs that would come in and out of the Masajid back then. He also explicitly stated that his ruling on dog's saliva that isn't impure is for DOMESTICATED dogs, not stray ones that live in the streets. regarding having the dog inside the house, it also must be within valid reason (the practically or for the health and well being of the dog itself, not all dogs are suitable for the types of climate change we experience today in different areas) and Allah knows best
so please give a lecture on what we animal welfare people should do? is saving a life is haram? why we cannot keep a dog who is suffering to protect him. paralyzed dog, dog that is blind etc. or if they have threat of been killed. pakistani government killed thousands and lakhs of healthy dogs bruetly shot many times.....posioned and left to suffer for hours. .....in this situation why our muslim ummah dont com forward and protect them.or give them space at home.
What you’re doing is actually very rewarding. Saving a dog or rescuing them is actually something that could make you go to Jannah, just like that woman who gave water to a thirsty dog. We are allowed to keep dogs, and not only for our needs, but also for their needs as well 🙂 dogs are a beloved creation of Allah and it is our responsibility to fulfill their rights because they also have rights too. And as for the deen being known as the deen of the middle, not extreme nor loose, there can be exceptions to rulings under certain situations and circumstances. You’re good 👍🙂 Alhamdulilah 😁 May Allah reward you for what you’re doing. Ameen
My Brother please reconcile what you said about ownership of a dog with surah 18 V 18 (below) - Al Kahf about the two righteous youths. and their dog. Surah 18 V 18 And you would think them awake, while they were asleep. And We turned them to the right and to the left, while their dog stretched his forelegs at the entrance. If you had looked at them, you would have turned from them in flight and been filled by them with terror. (18) And similarly, We awakened them
@@sonofagun00 How dishonest are people of Yasir Qadir. I did reply to your comments but they did hide it to prove their points. I said the Quran did not say a guard dog. It could be a pet, too.

For a new muslim, asking them to give up their dog, is like abandoning a member of the family. It is too much to ask. This deen is difficult take it gradually. Or as the prophet (PBUH) said. Managing the pillars of Islam is a great enough challenge. If they get so far, then they can attend to the smaller matters. Don't you agree?
It is definitely a learning curve, I would not expect a new convert to immediately begin praying 5 times a day from day 1 since they would not know how to at the beginning. As for the dog, they can keep the dog as long as it stays out of the house or at least outside of the prayer room. They would need to take a bath every time the dog licks them in order to pray which would make it impractical to keep the dog in the house as a pet.
ya shaikh. pls answer my questions because our scholar here in the Philippines never talk about this. my question is.. is forex trading haram or halal. ??
11:05 IslamQA disagrees with you and says that the consensus deems this hadith munkar or da'eef (weak). What's your response, Sheikh? islamqa.info/en/answers/69818/prohibition-on-selling-dogs
Prime example of the reasons almost all religions are primarily based off of antiquated beliefs that have little to no bearing in modern day or in the future.
but dogs is actually wolf but changed by human thru inbreeding into dogs for hunting & security, while in modern day changed further into pet dogs. Pet dogs is for example dog can be too hairy, or too small & skinny, or has deformed face, which such design you will not find in wild animal.
These are insane haddith! Sheep and guard dogs in the 21st century?! Dr Yasir Qadhi, GROW UP! I'm aghast at what you're saying! Dogs and saliva?! This is sheer ignorance!
consider the evil of breeding pet dogs like the Pug breed, which is a disabled dog which has heart problem and breathing problem. If you focus on breeding dogs for guard and agriculture purpose then you will eliminate the practice of breeding disabled dog like the Pug. If you had to breed healthy dog because of its agriculture & security purpose then you ensure the fitness of their species.
if economic activities around pet dogs are allowed then you will see the species to slowly devolve into animals that only fit in human care and cannot survive on its own. A dogs lick can be a public health issue especially because if a stray dogs lick people their saliva might contain pathogens that is pathogenic to humans.
@@lalluchettan the dog as a species is created by a process of domestication of Wolf, dog did not exist as wild animals. The dog as a species will evolve or devolve depending on how we breed them.

Or owning dog as pet and helping hungry people etc is not mutually exclusive, one can do the two at the same time just like one can own cat, spend some money on them while helping others. Honestly, as an exchristian exmuslim agnostic prohibition against having dog pets was one of the most inane illogical rules. Just wondering how more muslims who are rather knowledgeable and at least trying to rationalize religion like Yassir Qadhi deals with this and it is the same old arguments statements I have all heard from other Muslims. Trying to justify those rules is extremely like rather than collecting the data and arriving at rules, conclusion; havinga set of rules delivered to you by so called god and embarking on tireless attempts to find/create irrelevant reasons for those rules. The main issue id that mamy of those reasons would also apply to other things like I can also list/find a plethora of reasons why one shouldnt have cats as pets if I made the same attempts as Tem.
they can adopt a stray dog. a stray puppy. no need to buy a dog. all dogs are capable of guarding with training.
i have rescued a dog. as one month pupy with broken bones and in winter with alot of fleas on her. we kept her save. got her trsatment done. non of the other muslims saw the puppy suffering in our street? why? we were not allowed to keep them home. but are we allowed to let them suffer?
What you did was actually required of us to do as Muslims. Rescuing a dog is a legitimate reason for having a dog. And as for the deen being know as a middle deen, not extreme nor loose, there can be exceptions to rulings under certain situations or circumstances. You’re good 👍🙂 and May Allah (sw) reward you for it 🤍
if one has never kept a dog or are exposed to it . how wil thy understand ghem. ? Dogs has some amazing capability which Allah has given them. hunting, guarding used to b in old days, but in new times. they r used with special kids, with blind , with old people, for depression, they areused in bomb disposals, or tracking, they r even used to detect diseases. they r good guard dogs. they can protect ur kids from sexual abusers. wat else do u want? xan any other animal wud do so much?
i hav so many questions, im a muslim, we work with animal rescues and welfare. Dogs are the most hated, the most suffering living being in our country. they are shot they r poisoned. a healthy dog is killed bruetly. if we were not allowed to keep dogs at home then why are we killing dogs who are outside our homes? ? ? ? ? we dont want them home.wedont want them in streets. where shud they go? on moon?. been a rescuers, i believe that to save them they shud be kept inside, to help them from been bruetly killed. if it was turkey where stray dogs live happily. i dont mind my strays on streets. but where i live. its not. also. we get cases like dog with three legs or paralyzed. our animal welfare give them home becus they cannot survive on their own or find food,they will die slowly with hunger. does Islam teaches us to let them die with immence suffering? arent we taught to protect alll wat Allah created.
A'uthubillah. This is so sad. This evil mindset is not from Islam - the Rasoul s.a.w specifically told us about a prostitute who went to heaven after giving water to a thirsty dog.
What about if you have a puppy and it needs to stay inside for a few weeks until its slowly used to staying outside? Is this allowed?
May Allah SWT reward ur kind heart.
armies, police, and medical uses for dogs too. these arent included in the hadith.assuming those uses are ok?
i keep my 3 dogs in the house have had dogs all my life I love nature and just wildlife I also kept snakes and reptiles and collected certain types of plants and take part in the global warming effort i love my planet but my dogs is part of the family is part of the pack I don't keep my dogs outsid

I think theres a missunderstanding in the comment section, just because youre lonely doesnt mean that you should get a dog, the dog jobs is to guard not cuddle with you, maybe a cat is better for you
wait so when dogs hunt they obviously use sliva to catch prey so the hadith is clashing with quran no?
that's what i'm thinking, hmm
No.
@@adnanahmed9044 this is why I belive Malikis have a different stance on this issue :)
Holy Quran And Hadith do not clash. Those are just exceptions not general rules.
@cupcakesaregreat
Hadith are classifications... ranging from Mowdo'a (made up/weak naration) up until Sahih multiple stong narators report it in same text.
First category we do not take rulings from and may explain the clash in commands.
Regarding the Hadith, how do we know if our prophet actually said that about dogs, how can we be sure?
@cupcakesaregreat
Are you from the people who call themselves Muslim and reject the Sunnah/Hadith of our prophet?!
@cupcakesaregreat they’re transmitted the same way Quran was
@cupcakesaregreat it’s the same way it was transmitted people memorised both and narrated them and you have scholars that are there to verify the authenticity of ahadith and explain the context behind them
@cupcakesaregreat Again cupcakes. Seriously back off. You are not the first to raise doubts about hadith. Kharijites, Jahmiyya, Mutazilites up until this day to the Quraniyoon all have doubted the preservation of hadith. Ahle sunnah wal jamaah believe in the preservation of hadith. Yes there are opinions that differ and that is why we grade them. And that is why Quran takes precedence. But for example where in the Quran are the arkaan of salaah or even the names of all 5 prayers? Likewise the majority of practicality comes from sunna while theory is established from the Quran. So, yes if you still continue spreading your fitna here, I am going to find every comment of yours here and make your life miserable by quoting refutations.
@@Kamal_AL-Hinai Are you from the people who call themselves Muslim and Asuume everything about everyone before knowing anything about them ?
Hunting for sport is not allowed then how hunting dog for sport is allowed
It is sinful to hunt for sport but you can hunt for food you can use a dog to hunt for food
How can i ask questions?
How do we reconcile not being able to pray in clothes licked by a dog but being to eat the meat that it stuck its teeth into?
Cook the meat and clean the clothes before praying
Jazakhallah Khair Sheikh for giving a good explanation regarding owning a dog.
But is it halal to buy n sell dogs for living. One of my known person is doing this business.
Can anyone explain please. 🤔
I'm in a hostel and I'm on the 2nd floor, while the dog is in the ground floor, never comes up, will barakah be stopped on my room?
no, in-sha-Allah
@@akik1506 inshallah thankyou
The Quran mentions Dogs in good reference, in Surah Kahf a dog is a good guardian.
and what they hunt with their mouths is Halal for us to eat. So even the known norm that their saliva is impure doesn't make any sense when Allah made Halal HUNTED ANIMALS From their MOUTHS without Thabiha.
I dont know, I think we need to relook into ahadiths like this that dont match with the Quran 100%. And this is just one of the many reasons why we need to bring life back to Islamic sciences and scholarship, and scrutinize and make contemporary what is open to be contemporary. instead of just piling it all in books and letting them collect dust in shelfs saying "thats it, we know everything and no research or discovery needs to be made".
No wonder Islamic Scholarship is in such a Pathetic state today.
Agree
I am 100% with you on this!
Exactly! Ppl forget to use logic and reason tauba
A have a small dog nd I bought it bcs am always going out for work so I kept it 2 guide my home tho it’s not inside my house …should I still keep it?
I don't believe a dog's saliva is najas as this honorable sheikh said...
But I respect his opinion
Bro, the majority of schools state dogs saliva is najas. That is what the scholar is saying.
But. One portion of the Maliki school believes that the dogs saliva is not najas. So if you are following this opinion then it is pretty much okay. I mean, you are following an opinion found within the confines of the fiqh. Although it is still a minority opinion it is still valid.
More and more it turn into judaism where they only talk about scholar opinion. Quran states that Ahlul Kahf had a dog
@@bustarhymes6188 Okay fine. You have a point. But without scholars to guide us, who will you turn to? Will you just pick up the Quran for every problem of yours? You need scholars bruv. They facilitate the understanding of Quran and sunnah.
@@saracentiano It is literally Halal to eat the Hunt (birds and other animals) of Dogs that they capture with their mouths, without even thabiha. Allah literally said this in the Quran, so how is it that their saliva is impure again when we can EAT what they capture with their MOUTHS.
Islamic scholarship needs reinvigorating and for more Ijtihad to be done, instead of just sitting back and saying "the work is already done we have the answers to everything from hundreds of years ago".
@@saracentiano Then why does the Quran say, "The words of your Lord are complete in its truth and justice. Nothing can change His words - He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing. If you obeyed most of those on earth, they would lead you away from the path of Allah. They follow nothing but speculation - they are merely guessing (The Quran, 6:115), and "Rabbis and monks determined what was lawful and what was not instead of God" (The Quran, 9:31)?
Can you purchase cats as pets ?
yes
Don't Maliki's belive dogs are halal to keep?
You didn't watch the entire video did you?
@@bradsuarez2683 he never mentioned Maliki's stance i did watch it once thru out
@@e.k874 10:43 He explicitly says according to the maliki's dogs can be kept for certain purposes.
@@bradsuarez2683 he's talking about selling dogs / buying dogs Im not talking about that I herd that Malikis believe dogs are not haram at all
@@e.k874 When he said "any dog that can be acquired legally" and "whatever the sharia allows" I took that to mean if the sharia allows you to own a dog in certain circumstances as a result you would be able to sell it as well. As for all dogs being halaal no matter what, yes he didn't mention anything. I guess he was giving an overview of the majority decision.
Aselamu Aleikum sheikh can you tell if there is legitimacy of celebration of mewlid cause Ashàaris celebrate here
Not a sheikh but mawlid isn’t an Aqidah issue so mentioning Asharis make no sense. In regards to mawlid it is differed upon. One side views it as permissible as long as there are no sinful behaviours whilst another side views it as an innovation. Both positions are valid to follow and am genuinely annoyed that such a minor Fiqhi disagreement has become a big issue amongst Muslims online.
No reasonable person would believe dogs are haraam. The have always been the best friends of man.
@Hamza 3 out of 4 madhabs view it as najis akhi, that's not a "major diffrence of opinion" hence why sh YQ said this is the "stronger opinion". Don't be hostile to your Muslim brothers. We must show adab and respect to each other.
@Hamza there's no single scholar who said the saliva of a dog is not najis. Yes, you can use the dog to hunt, guard and security. But if your dog hunt an animal and already started eating it then you can't eat it. Understand the teaching of the Glorious Quran, Hadith and Sunnah first before attacking your Bro here. And whether it's a hunting dog or the reason that goes with the teachings in Islam. You can't live with a dog in the same house.
@Hamza no you have to do your research correctly. Will you follow what Malick School of taught says or what the Prophet SAW said? Imam Malick just took his evidence from the quran which says you can eat what they catch (no one in this World understands and knows everything in the Glorious Quran) I don't know if you know that. But even in that case when the Dog start eating the animal, in this you can't eat it. Learn properly before calling me names. And it is clear that you can't keep a dog in your house whether they are in the category of hunting, guard and security. And it's not only because of diseases but the Creator knows everything and that's take the precautions first and that's why it is clear to keep the dog safe outside and most of the people keep dogs for other purposes and not base on Islam. The way you responded to people is not appropriate.
@Hamza Allah Subhanahu Wa'Tallah forbid you to eat an animal if the dog starts eating the animal it catches.
@@saliminadampha5309 Imam Malik didn't come up with the ruling out of his own whim, he gave supporting evidences, and no, it's not just from the Quran, but also ahadith regarding some dogs that would come in and out of the Masajid back then. He also explicitly stated that his ruling on dog's saliva that isn't impure is for DOMESTICATED dogs, not stray ones that live in the streets. regarding having the dog inside the house, it also must be within valid reason (the practically or for the health and well being of the dog itself, not all dogs are suitable for the types of climate change we experience today in different areas) and Allah knows best
so please give a lecture on what we animal welfare people should do? is saving a life is haram? why we cannot keep a dog who is suffering to protect him. paralyzed dog, dog that is blind etc. or if they have threat of been killed. pakistani government killed thousands and lakhs of healthy dogs bruetly shot many times.....posioned and left to suffer for hours. .....in this situation why our muslim ummah dont com forward and protect them.or give them space at home.
What you’re doing is actually very rewarding. Saving a dog or rescuing them is actually something that could make you go to Jannah, just like that woman who gave water to a thirsty dog. We are allowed to keep dogs, and not only for our needs, but also for their needs as well 🙂 dogs are a beloved creation of Allah and it is our responsibility to fulfill their rights because they also have rights too. And as for the deen being known as the deen of the middle, not extreme nor loose, there can be exceptions to rulings under certain situations and circumstances. You’re good 👍🙂 Alhamdulilah 😁 May Allah reward you for what you’re doing. Ameen
Is cats haram too?
No . The Muhammad pbuh had cats
My Brother please reconcile what you said about ownership of a dog with surah 18 V 18 (below) - Al Kahf about the two righteous youths. and their dog.
Surah 18 V 18
And you would think them awake, while they were asleep. And We turned them to the right and to the left, while their dog stretched his forelegs at the entrance. If you had looked at them, you would have turned from them in flight and been filled by them with terror. (18) And similarly, We awakened them
Good question bro, in Surah Al Kahf wouldn’t it make sense that the dog was a guard dog? Hence permissible based on that evidence?
Good gentle reply akhi, BarakAllah feek.
@@sonofagun00 How dishonest are people of Yasir Qadir. I did reply to your comments but they did hide it to prove their points. I said the Quran did not say a guard dog. It could be a pet, too.

@@sonofagun00 You must be one of his clan to come and defend him. They even deactivate the thumbs down to show that people agree with them.

The other guy Baajour is coming up with all kind of stories to attract viewers so that they can use RUclips money. Go and get a real job.
For a new muslim, asking them to give up their dog, is like abandoning a member of the family.
It is too much to ask.
This deen is difficult take it gradually.
Or as the prophet (PBUH) said.
Managing the pillars of Islam is a great enough challenge.
If they get so far, then they can attend to the smaller matters.
Don't you agree?
It is definitely a learning curve, I would not expect a new convert to immediately begin praying 5 times a day from day 1 since they would not know how to at the beginning.
As for the dog, they can keep the dog as long as it stays out of the house or at least outside of the prayer room. They would need to take a bath every time the dog licks them in order to pray which would make it impractical to keep the dog in the house as a pet.

Can muslim house owners allow their tenants to keep dog as their pet?Is it harram for owners
It’s totally prohibited but for guarding or hunting it is permissible thanx
11:05 IslamQA disagrees with you and says that the consensus deems this hadith munkar or da'eef (weak). What's your response, Sheikh? islamqa.info/en/answers/69818/prohibition-on-selling-dogs
Prime example of the reasons almost all religions are primarily based off of antiquated beliefs that have little to no bearing in modern day or in the future.
God made dogs though.
but dogs is actually wolf but changed by human thru inbreeding into dogs for hunting & security, while in modern day changed further into pet dogs. Pet dogs is for example dog can be too hairy, or too small & skinny, or has deformed face, which such design you will not find in wild animal.
Cutting the feet according to shoe size. Keep it up !!!!!
These are insane haddith! Sheep and guard dogs in the 21st century?! Dr Yasir Qadhi, GROW UP! I'm aghast at what you're saying! Dogs and saliva?! This is sheer ignorance!
??? What this
consider the evil of breeding pet dogs like the Pug breed, which is a disabled dog which has heart problem and breathing problem. If you focus on breeding dogs for guard and agriculture purpose then you will eliminate the practice of breeding disabled dog like the Pug. If you had to breed healthy dog because of its agriculture & security purpose then you ensure the fitness of their species.
if economic activities around pet dogs are allowed then you will see the species to slowly devolve into animals that only fit in human care and cannot survive on its own. A dogs lick can be a public health issue especially because if a stray dogs lick people their saliva might contain pathogens that is pathogenic to humans.
But the pug isn't a crossbred dog! See, this is exactly what I thought: ignorance drives most of the Islamic world.
@@lalluchettan the dog as a species is created by a process of domestication of Wolf, dog did not exist as wild animals. The dog as a species will evolve or devolve depending on how we breed them.
