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...
Yeah...it's not a religious fight tho...Setuju..memang pilihan masing-masing...dan religious rules pun dia ada syarat-syarat dia...Muslim tak boleh keep a dog as a pet..It is understood as it is stated clearly in the Quran..memang betui..kalau u all nak disregard the religious side of opinion.. then it will be up to you..Usually rules in the Quran are of reasons... Nway, cam ada forumer cakap... As a guard outside the house, yes... inside..no..Pet?..as in small small dogs eg poodle, chihuahua..its a big NO... My 2 cents opinion tho...

p/s always ..always and always has to samak everytime balik dari vet... Those sharing the same clinic do not aware ( or taken into awareness) that the Muslims akan ada banyak kerja kalau the dogs came and bite our pants tho.. People, just understand....we DUN HATE dogs ( i would love one if i can ) or SCARED OF dogs, it's too complicated... Dun just sit there and chatting, let your dogs roam around the clinic if there's CLEARLY a Muslim in it... WE really highly appreciate your awareness and consideration..Tq
