Lol, maybe God created the swine for the following reasons

1/ For non-muslims, non-jews to eat?

3/ To search for truffles?

BTW..you didn't answer me about the donkey question. It is true that humans are very cruel to them, especially in poorer countries. I LOVE donkies. People do not need to treat them bad




Martha,
God created Satan (shaithan) as well, would you love it, invite it in your home, after all its Allah's creation?
Not everything Allah Created, we are to love it. We must follow what Quran, and sunnah sets forward.
Jews and Christians you mentioned eat pig, yet in their very book they believe in to be from God, it tells them clearly to not to eat it and to not even touch it, it is unclean!

Agreed. Just irks me when nonmuslims use those ahadith clearly dealing with rabid dogs to say that Islam & Muslims hate dogs. Why, even some muslims start believing that "hating" dogs is some kind of religious injunction ! Especially in certain cultures.

Sure it does.
 
Sahih Bukhari
004.054.540 --> Allah's Apostle ordered that the dogs should be killed.
003.029.054 --> Allah's Apostle said, "It is not sinful (of a Muhrim) to kill five kinds of animals, namely: the crow, the kite, the mouse, the scorpion and the rabid dog."


Whats so hateful about killing, or lets use the western term "euthanising" a rabid dog? (dog with rabies) That could infect humans with a deadly disease...

I share my ice-cream with my dog. Still very much healthy and alive.

Salaams,

I too love dogs, my sister's dogs are beautiful and amazing, and are actually quite clean on a whole. Smile

when I visit I just pray upstairs where they do not go. It is the saliva, not the dogs themselves. I agree with Chrysalis about the spouse being a nonMuslim and her rights are different.

Seeks, I understand what you wrote about potential parasites. The reality is that most westerners do not get these parasites, even living with dogs. Because they have access to clean water. All animals contain some parasites.

I had e a friend 15 years ago. She had a cat. Cats, as you may or may not know, will often drink water from anywhere besides their water dish. One time she, my friend, drank out of a glass of water, unknowingly after her cat did. She contacted a rare parasites that left her completely exhausted and a long time to diagnose. It took months and months of recovery.  So cats, which are fine as pets can have dangers too if people are unhygenic. 

so anytime I see "scientific research" I want to know Who are the scientists and exactly what is the study.  Probably all animals contain parasites that are not good for humans.  I agree with Martha, being around dogs or any other animal is about common sense hygiene practices.
When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy. Rumi

Salams Seeks,
THe article about dogs was interesting. I think on the whole there is little new about it, and we should use commonsense when being with dogs.
I have always been taught good hygiene practices as my parents kept dogs. So with my own kids I did the same. I can see though that not everyone would have learnt the same.
So it is important to teach others.
Dogs can make lovely companions though.
I really like cats :)
