and also bro, what's the importance of knowing "why is it haram" ??? Usually we don't ask for something why is it haram.
Bro, We are suppose to know why we believe what we believe, and why we do, or dont do things. Its how you learn. It's a part of seeking knowledge.
What you aren't suppose to do is disagree with what Allah has made haraam and halal , ONCE you understand it.
Wa Allahu 3lim.
to the orginal poster, i dont have the proof, but youre right about it being haraam. The angels wont enter into the house which has a dog in it. The black dog is the shaytaan too.

:enough!: Getting entirely fed up with the foolishness :enough!:
a sheperd can use the dog, or if you hunt , then you can have a dog.
I don't know why it is haram !!. but certainly cats are much cleaner than dogs.

well, i feel i need 2 know because i have two dogs, a rotweiler and an alsatian. i keep them for security purpose, they are guard dogs and they have been very useful in fending of intruders. a cat can never do such work.
disposing of them will only leave my house open and vulnerable to attacks from outside.

dogs cannot stop anything nowdays. they might scare a 10 year old thief, but no professional ones.
My friend is very pious muslim, and since he had the dog when he started practicing Islam, he keeps the dog outside.

I shall find the proof for you InshaaAllah. But dogs ARE allowed as guard dogs. And to guard flock. InshaaAllah i'll get back to you as soon as i can.
Also, even with them as guard dogs , they must stay outside, they arent allowed to be in your house and all that.

I think I read somewhere it's all good if they're kept outside. Although, not sure if the source was reliable...Or if I even read it. [Could be dreaming it up...]

the truth is tht my dogs hv helped in scaring off alot of intruders, my neighbours who dont have dogs hv been robbed alot of times, but the robbers always pass by my house i think because they see the dogs as trouble.
and another thing, my dogs are kept outside the house, they have their cages and are only released at night!!!!!!!!!

I can;t say anything, cuz I don't know much about ruling of keeping dog in Islam.
but as Umnyiah said, she will inshAallah provide u with information.
Dogs are seen as najis (unclean) that is why they are haram...although their are acceptions, such as a shepard dog or a trained dog for those who are blind and even for sense of security...hope that helps
AsalamuALaykum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh Wa Maghfiratuh,
"Angels do not enter a house in which there are dogs or pictures."
Islam forbids Muslims to keep dogs, and the punishment for that is the loss of one or two qiraats from one's hasanat (good deeds) each day. An exception is made for keeping dogs for hunting or guarding.
`Abdullah ibn `Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) is reported to have said that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Whoever keeps a dog, except a dog for herding livestock or a dog that is trained for hunting, will have two qiraats deducted from his reward each day" (Al-Bukhari and Muslim). However, taking a dog only as a pet is forbidden in Islam and doing so has a lot of harms. According to the authentic hadith, "It would decrease his good deeds by the equivalent of one piece of land" (Muslim).
Treat them well though: And Allaah indeed forgave one prostitute from the Jews who showed mercy to a dog that was dying from thirst. She filled her shoe with water and then taking hold of the dogs mouth, she gave it the water to drink. So Allaah was thankful to her for what she did and forgave her sins.
"Whoever lives amongst you will see much differing, so adhere to my Sunnah" Muhammad (صلّى الله عليه و سلم)

Please could you quote from the Qu'ran where it authorizes the use of "Guide Dogs for the Blind"? :confused:
Is it permissible to keep a dog for purposes other than those mentioned above?
The answer is: yes.
Imam al-Nawawi (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
There was a difference of opinion with regard to whether it is permissible to keep dogs for purposes other than these three, such as guarding houses and roads. The most correct view is that it is permissible, by analogy with these three, based on the reason that is to be understood from the hadeeth, which is necessity. End quote.
Sharh Muslim (10/236)
Ibn ‘Abd al-Barr (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
In my view, the meaning of this hadeeth also includes keeping dogs if there is a purpose in doing so and for warding off harm, if a person needs that. End quote.
Al-Tamheed (14/219)
For this woman to keep a trained dog – when there is no one who can help her, take care of her and protect her – is more essential than guarding fields and livestock.
I think I read somewhere it's all good if they're kept outside. Although, not sure if the source was reliable...Or if I read even read it. [Could be dreaming it up...]
the dogs drool isnt good....but i think that its also suposed to remain a certain distance away from the house not to sure but thats wat i've heard. salam
