"How should Muslims view dogs?"
WITH LOGIC, AND NOT ANTIQUATED SUPERSTITION.

I must say this preacher is very clear and concise in his explanation regarding dogs. Great work

My daughter wants a theropy dog. She has extreme anxiety. A dog would really help her and a dog would help her connect her to people. I just knew dogs would go to heaven ☺.

I never understood why dogs are soo controversial in Islam. They save lives, hunt, work, play and are the best company for free. Yes, my dog is my avatar. I bathe her after a long walk, brush her teeth and keep her vaccinated. Though I'm not Muslim, this is something that I have longed to understand.

Thank You!! I live in Muslim neighborhood most of my life, and I have a Siberian Husky. Some are terrified even to come close, some come close but tell me they are not allowed to even touch the dog, not to mention own one. I will share this video .. I'm familiar with Holy Quran .. and I did not see anywhere in it saying that dogs are devil's spawns..nothing bad about dogs... all creatures made by God. Thank you for this video.

My parents had a dog for many years. My dad always get up at fajr to go to the mosque . The dog also started barking as soon as the dog heard the adhan. The dog kept barking, actually it is like the dog imitated the call to the prayer (Adhan). The dog kept repeating after the adhan and no one could sleep because of the dog imitating the Adhan. I don’t leave with my parents anymore, but my sister does she told me the story. My sister said she will get up every day to pray for fajr everyday on time and everyone in the family because of the dog. Also, the dog follow my dad to the mosque every fajr time and wait for him, after the prayer, they come home together. This dog imitated the call for prayer and go to the mosque with my dad every fajr. The dog finally gets sick, the Vet who took care of the dog gave up because the wound smell terrible and the dog become very sick, the vet didn’t show up. Finally my dad put gloves on and took care of the dog wound and with my sister help my dad everyday do the treatment. That last few month, they took good care of the dog, finally the dog passed away. My sister told me she had a dream where she saw the prophet Muhammad (Salalah Alahi Wasalam) sitting on the prayer carpet with my dad both sitting, very close next to each other their knees touching each other as the way we sit when praying . My sister said she was sitting on the corner looking at my dad and the prophet( PBUH), there was someone introducing her to our prophet(SAW). The person said you know him? This is our prophet(SAW). And the prophet (SAW) said to my dad, to open the door that someone is at the door who want to thanks my dad. My dad asked my sister to open the door. Here is the dog that passed away walking through the door come and shakes my dad hand and thanks him for the good care my dad gave to the dog . The dog walked like a human being on 2 feet with a clothes on in a healthy good shape as described my sister. My sister said that she saw in her dream the prophet(SAW) because of the dog that she help my dad to care for. And many people in the family was saying to Get ride of the dog when its wound was very smelly and bad. But they spend times and money to care for the dog.

Dogs are the truest most loyal and faithful friends. They'll do anything to protect their human family. They'll show you love and uplift you if you're sad.

[alinaqvi]

Man will never find a friend as intelligent and as faithful as the Dog... Thank you Dr.Shabbir for clearing that up 👍

Thank you very much. I run a group supporting Muslims with disabilities in my country. This was very informative and helped me to explain to people so that those who need disability assistance dogs are not judged and do not have these essential services taken away from them when they try to attend Muslim places, gatherings etc. Assistance dogs are an essential service that allows the disabled to do things you take for granted every day - be part of the community, leave their house, go to work, go to school, pick up things they have dropped, open a door, be aware that someone is at their door or the fire alarm has gone off, and so much more. Never judge someone's need for an assistance dog when you know nothing of how important it is to them.

thank you very much for this info, it helps me a lot. Assalamualaikum.

Some dogs, I believe are angels in disguise. Many have saved people. Some have instincts to serve and work and love it. They give therapy and can save lives.
