An Islamic scholar says owning a dog inside the home reduces your good deeds and keeps angels away. She referenced the Prophet Muhammad as saying: “Whoever keeps a dog, except a dog for herding, hunting, or farming, then every day two qirats are deducted from his good deeds.” " Whoever owns a dog is in debt to Allah and will be punished, so think twice.” She also quoted another narration: “The angels do not enter a house in which there is a dog or an image.” According to this traditional interpretation, keeping a dog as a household pet without a valid religious reason decreases blessings (barakah), and a person should repent and remove the dog from the home. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ This is what I know about this. The shortened version of their hatred towards dogs goes kinda like this. Their muhammad was having late night meetings with an angel, who took the form of someone (al-kalbi) who they consider to be a good looking male model, and one night he didn't show. When he finally did show up, he told muhammad that he could not come in due to a dog in the house. That's when muhammad said that dogs needed to be killed. They also say that allah is the greatest deceiver of the world, and has the ability to shape-shift. I do know that jesus spent 40 nights out in the dessert while being protected by an angel and animals from Satan. Which means angels and animals get along just fine. So why would animals NOT get along with al-kabli? You really don't need a very high IQ to connect the dots, do you? Would this also explain their hatred towards gays?
