Killing of Dogs [RABID]

Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 3.55 Narrated byAisha
Allah's Apostle said, "Five kinds of animals are harmful and could be killed in the Haram (Sanctuary). These are: the crow, the kite, the scorpion, the mouse and the rabid dog."

Killing of Rabid Dogs [Dogs that bite]only& not all Dogs.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Sahih Muslim HadithHadith 551 Narrated byAbdullah Ibn Mughaffal
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) ordered killing of the dogs and then said: What about them, i.e. about other dogs? - and then granted concession (to keep) the dog for hunting and the dog for (the security) of the herd, and said: When the dog licks the utensil, wash it seven times, and rub it with earth the eighth time.

Sunan of Abu-DawoodHadith 1844 Narrated byAbuSa'id al-Khudri
The Prophet (peace be upon him) was asked which of the creatures a pilgrim in sacred state could kill. He replied: The snake, the scorpion, the rat; he should drive away the pied crow, but should not kill it; the biting dog, the kite, and any wild animal which attacks (man).

Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 4102 Narrated byAbdullah ibn Mughaffal
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Were dogs not a species of creature I should command that they all be killed; but kill every pure black one." AbuDawud and Darimi transmitted it. Tirmidhi and Nasa'i added, "No family attaches itself to a dog without a qirat of their good deeds being deducted
daily, except in the case of a hunting dog, a farm dog, or a sheepdog."

*NOTE:if the pure black one is harmful only.Angels do not enter in houses where Dogs live,this is what the hadith emphasises subtley .


Sunan of Abu-DawoodHadith 2840 Narrated byJabir ibn Abdullah
The Prophet of Allah (peace be upon him) ordered to kill dogs, and we were even killing a dog which a woman brought with her from the desert.

Afterwards he forbade to kill them, saying: Confine yourselves to the type which is black.["The jet-black dog" (al-kalb al-aswad al-bahim). The gist of the reference seems to be that a wild-looking dog, or one known to be dangerous, has the greatest potential for distracting attention/threatning]

note:Exposure to rabid dogs is still the cause of over 90% of human exposures to rabies and of over 99% of Human deaths worldwide.

Hunting Dogs are permitted in Quran and Hadith.Trained hunting animals .
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5:4 They ask thee what is lawful to them (as food): say: Lawful unto you are (all) things good and pure: and what ye have taught your trained hunting animals (to catch) in the manner directed to you by Allah; eat what they catch for you but pronounce the name of Allah over it: and fear Allah; for Allah is swift in taking account.

Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 1.175 Narrated byAdi bin Hatim
I asked the Prophet (about the hunting dogs) and he replied, "If you let loose (with Allah's name) your tamed dog after a game and it hunts it, you may eat it, but if the dog eats of (that game) then do not eat it because the dog has hunted it for itself." I further said, "Sometimes I send my dog for hunting and find another dog with it. He said, "Do not eat the game for you have mentioned Allah's name only on sending your dog and not the other dog."


Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 3.270 Narrated byAdi bin Hatim
I asked Allah's Apostle about Al Mirad (i.e. a sharp-edged piece of wood or a piece of wood provided with a piece of iron used for hunting). He replied, "If the game is hit by its sharp edge, eat it, and if it is hit by its broad side, do not eat it, for it has been beaten to death." I asked, "O Allah's Apostle! I release my dog by the name of Allah and find with it at the game, another dog on which I have not mentioned the name of Allah, and I do not know which one of them caught the game." Allah's Apostle said (to him), 'Don't eat it as you have mentioned the name of Allah on your dog and not on
the other dog."


Keeping Dogs is not permissible except for guarding sheep,cattle or for hunting.

Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 3.515 Narrated byAbu Huraira
Allah's Apostle said, "Whoever keeps a dog, one Qirat of the reward of his good deeds is deducted daily, unless the dog is used for guarding a farm or cattle."

Kindness towards Dogs.
---------------------------
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 8.38 Narrated byAbu Huraira
Allah's Apostle said, "While a man was walking on a road, he became very thirsty. Then he came across a well, got down into it, drank (of its water) and then came out. Meanwhile he saw a dog panting and licking mud because of excessive thirst. The man said to himself "This dog is suffering from the same state of thirst as I did." So he went down the well (again) and filled his shoe (with water) and held it in his mouth and watered the dog. Allah thanked him for that deed and forgave him." The people asked, "O Allah's Apostle! Is there a reward for us in serving the animals?" He said, "(Yes) There is a reward for serving any animate (living being)."

Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 1.174 Narrated byAbu Huraira
The Prophet said, "A man saw a dog eating mud from (the severity of) thirst. So, that man took a shoe (and filled it) with water and kept on pouring the water for the dog till it quenched its thirst. So Allah approved of his deed and made him to enter Paradise." And narrated Hamza bin 'Abdullah: My father said. "During the lifetime of Allah's Apostle, the dogs used to urinate, and pass through the mosques (come and go), nevertheless they never used to sprinkle water on it (urine of the dog.)"



Angels do not enter in a house where there is a Dog or a picture.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sahih Muslim HadithHadith 5248 Narrated byMaymunah
One morning Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) was silent with grief. Maymunah said: Allah's Messenger, I find a change in your mood today. Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said: Gabriel had promised me that he would meet me last night, but he did not meet me. By Allah, he never broke his promises; and Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) spent the day in this sad (mood). Then it occurred to him that there had been a puppy under their cot. He gave an order and it was turned out. He then took some water in his hand and sprinkled it on the place. When it was evening Gabriel met him and he said to him: You promised me that you would meet me the previous night. He said: Yes, but we do not enter a house in which there is a dog or a picture. So the very next morning he commanded the dogs to be killed. He announced that the dog kept for the orchards should also be killed, but he
spared the dog used for the protection of extensive fields (or big gardens).

Sahih Muslim HadithHadith 3812 Narrated byAbdullah ibn Umar
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) ordered the killing of dogs except the dog tamed for hunting, or watching of the herd of sheep or other domestic animals. It was said to Ibn Umar (Allah be pleased with them) that AbuHurayrah (Allah be pleased with him) talks of (exception) about the dog for watching the field, whereupon he said: Since AbuHurayrah (Allah be pleased with him) possessed land.

Sunan of Abu-DawoodHadith 227 Narrated byAli ibn AbuTalib

Things that annuals the prayer:[There was a misunderstanding that passing of woman would cut off the prayer]

The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: When any one of you stands for prayer and there is a thing before him equal to the back of the saddle that covers him and in case there is not before him (a thing) equal to the back of the saddle, his prayer would be cut off by (passing of an) ass,
woman, and black dog. I said: O AbuDharr, what feature is there in a black dog which distinguishes it from the red dog and the yellow dog? He said: O son of my brother, I asked the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) as you are asking me, and he said: The black dog is a devil.

Sunan of Abu-DawoodHadith 704 Narrated byAbdullah ibn Abbas
Ikrimah reported on the authority of Ibn Abbas, saying: I think the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) said: When one of you prays without a sutrah, a dog, an ass, a pig, a Jew, a Magian, and a woman cut off his prayer, but it will suffice if they pass in front of him at a distance of over a stone's throw.

Sahih Muslim HadithHadith 1034 Narrated byAbuHurayrahThe Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: A woman, an ass and a dog disrupt the prayer, but something like the back of a saddle guards against that.
Ummul Mummineen clarified the misunderstanding:--------women may divert attention is what some companions thought.

Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 1.490 Narrated byAisha
The things which annul the prayers were mentioned before me. They said, "Prayer is annulled by a dog, a donkey and a woman (if they pass in front of the praying people)." I said, "You have made us (i.e. women) dogs. I saw the Prophet praying while I used to lie in my bed between him and the Qibla. Whenever I was in need of something, I would slip away, for I disliked to face him."
