Re: Can A Muslim Have A Dog?
Mr Eff:
You asked 'can a muslim' keep dogs. The short answer, as per June and Farah is, NO... (reasons explained by them).
But if your answer is: Can you personally keep a dog? Well, that's a decision you have to make. Some muslims have made the decision to keep them and love them.
There are a lot of things that are haram in the Quran, but that doesn't mean every muslim does EVERYTHING the Quran says. In my humble opinion (and you're asking our opinions here), it's always up to you.
And this is the same with my Christian friends.. not a single one i know is 100% compliant with the Bible..
so, if you ask me personally, well, it's always up to you, as an individual to do what you think is best.
It's all about personal choice! That's my philosophy of life!
ps: Guys, please don't turn this into a religious fight. If you have an opinion, state them, but don't try to put down other's opinions...
