Hourses have difference of opinion
You can try putting cats pic instead, and apply pink filter to pink to give piggy look :P
No I'm actually angered at this. :/
Where does it state we can give preference to one animal over another? If you see a thirsty pig, do you not give the pig water? If you see a hungry pig, do we not give the pig food?
Pork is haram to consume. But where does it state that pigs are themselves evil or haram to keep? If a pig needs a home or a shelter, do we not provide it?
I agree with you, in the sense that I see no reason to remove it. Pigs are a creation of Allah. But at same time let's be open minded and take a look at the other side too.
We have recieved a report on the topic by
@Insaanah
, that's why to be safe the

Some people are different when it comes to pork. Regardless piglets are pork and to even touch it can be controversial because you will contaminate other food sources. I banned my boyfriend from eating pork and if he even touches it he will regret it
So to have one in the house, a baby or not... absolutely not. Of course if one is in need of human help then do what you can then subhan allah this surely is a good deed. Give it a drink from a bowl which you then throw away or feed him some food whatever. But to keep one as a pet, it's just not advisable. They will snot all over your house.
the cutest of all animals. A baby cheetah called Toto, sadly he is no longer with us, a baboon ate him
I would like to know from Insaanah why this was reported. I am not trying to make a mockery of Islam, but as far as I can tell the haram of a pig is the eating of it, due to reasons that it is dirty and we have been instructed not to eat it.
However, considering I am a vegetarian in the first place and do not eat animals at all, and I know the pig is haram to eat, where does it state in the Quran or in the Hadith that dealing with a pig in general is haram and thus prohibited.
Unless we are making bidah and thus stipulating that because a pig is haram to eat, it is also haram to deal with pigs in the first place. If someone can give me a verse that says anything like this, I would happily take that and say ok. It is haram to deal in totality with a pig.

We not allowed to keep a picture of a pig also, just drop it, please.
Keep on posting the same things over and over of haraam, so Muslims can be indoctrinated over time.
u a revert sister as u claim, so just drop it, u wanna go back to kufr ??????

Please state where this is. I don't take things as someone says unless it is cited in the Quran or the Hadith. Where does it state no picture of pigs should also state no pictures of anything else. So I fail to see why pictures of other living things are acceptable but pigs would not be.

Google the quraan and hadith regarding pigs, to get a reference, then go check it up in quraan and 6 authentic hadith books, u will find alot
Hahahah u were the one so shocked about the internet and espionage, lol.
Mmmmmm I wonder have u exposed urself ??
Lol, what?
Akhi if you say that there shouldn't be a picture of a pig on the forum you should bring proof for that. I know that pigs are considered dirty and Allah turned people from Bani Israel into pigs as a punishment so I wouldn't use it, but I don't know if it's haram.
With regards to looking at a pig, I found a relevant fatwa.
"Pigs and dogs are creations of Allah. They are animals. They take the same ruling as other animals except where Islam provided special rulings for them. There are rulings regarding the impurity of pigs and the saliva of dogs, and that it is prohibited to eat the flesh of these animals.
However, these rulings do not extend beyond that limit. It is not prohibited to look at these animals, to watch shows about them, or even to show kindness to them.
Indeed, the Prophet (peace be upon him) informed us that a prostitute was forgiven and granted Paradise because she showed mercy to a dog that was dying of thirst and filled her shoe with water and gave it to the dog to drink. [Sahîh al-Bukhârî (3467) and Sahîh Muslim (2245)]
Toy pigs and dogs take the same ruling as toys made in the shape of other animals. They are permissible.
The proof that toys in the image of people and animals are permissible comes in the hadîth where `Aishah said: “I used to play with dolls in front of the Prophet (Peace be upon him) with my friends …” [Sahîh al-Bukhârî (6130) and Sahîh Muslim (2440)]
Keeping a pig and looking at a pig are 2 different things. This thread is about displaying a picture of the pig.
For keeping a pig please discuss in the other thread.

Looking at pictures of animate things is an academically contested opinion among the scholars. Some say it is impermissible others say its fine. Both sides have legitimate proofs.
My personal opinion is that it is impermissible to draw and take pics. However looking at them is fine.
This is for all pictures of all animate things not just pigs.
So if u don't know y u giving ur opinion on sumfin u DONT know ?
I didn't give my opinion akhi, I asked you for proof for your opinion. Farhan has already brought proof that looking at pigs is permissible. I don't use images so I still wouldn't use it, but you haven't brought proof that it's impermissible. If there is an opinion that says it's impermissible I would like to know so that I can learn Insha' Allah.
Sorry but the other thread was closed and since the discussion is about pictures, I thought I'd reply here.
What is wrong with a dog?
Im not saying it's haram or halal but if I knew a member removed the words of Allah from their avatar because of an animal picture I had chosen, I would change my avatar immediately.
