Pets in Paradise?

Awe, that is so cute!

JazakhAllah kheir for sharing those stories

P.S.: Don't buy a cat, it is said, is is forbidden, that is because of the hadeeth of Abu’l-Zubayr who said: “I asked Jaabir about the price of dogs and cats. He said, ‘The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) forbade that.’” (Narrated by Muslim, 1569).

Further anecdotes state that Muhammad sometimes used water that Muezza had drunk from for wudu.[

This one is really hard for me to digest bcoz we wash our faces with that water and put it in our mouths.Im suspicious about this one .Even im very sensitive about this one so its hard for me to even imagine that Muhammad SAW used that water for his wudhu

Any way,thanks for sharing.This is really pleasant for cat lovers

With regards to cats not being naajis, this is known from the hadeeth of Kabshah bint Ka’b ibn Maalik, who said that Abu Qutaadah – her husband's father – entered upon her and she poured water for him to do wudoo’, and a cat came to drink from it, so he tipped the vessel for it to drink. Kabshah said: “He saw me looking at him and said, “Do you find it strange, O daughter of my brother?’ I said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, “They (cats) are not naajis, rather they are of those who go around amongst you.”’” (Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 92; al-Nasaa’i, 68; Abu Dawood, 75; Ibn Maajah, 367. classed as saheeh by al-Albaani. Ibn Hajar narrated in al-Talkhees that al-Bukhaari classed it as saheeh).


Islam Q&A, fatwa 7004


Narrated in Sunan Abi Dawood and elsewhere, which says that a woman brought some hareesah (a kind of food) to ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) and found her praying. (‘Aa’ishah) gestured to her that she should put it down. Then a cat came and ate some of it. When ‘Aa’ishah had finished praying, she ate from where the cat had eaten and said, “The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: ‘They (cats) are not naajis (impure), rather they are among those who go around among you (al-tawwaafeena ‘alaykum).’ I saw the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) doing wudoo’ with water from which a cat had drunk.”

But I guess it also depends on where your cat goes. When my cat went outside into the garden where also dogs went and did their business there, I wouldn't have shared my water or food with her. But now that she is always inside, why not?

Wa eyak! But I think it means ALL cats are Islamically pure, because neither the hadith nor the fatwas state that only home cats are pure and as long as it is not stated otherwise.... but my last sentence was rather from the hygienic point of view. I guess at the time of Rasul Allah, sal Allahu alayhi wa salam, the streets and ways were a bit more ..... hygienic?

I don't know where you live, we don't have street cats where I live, but if I were in Greece or Spain where they have too many, I also wouldn't share my bowl with them

Its truly a pleasure to see young people care about the deeyn so much Keep me in your doaa



I guess you are talking about "Dumbo"

AMEENNN!

And LOL! That's what I was alluding to, but insha-Allah it'll be something better!

Ok, an Imam from Ireland told me this aya says, animals will turn to dust:

Verily, We have warned you of a near torment, the Day when man will see that (the deeds) which his hands have sent forth, and the disbeliever will say: "I wish I would have been dust." (Surah An-Naba' 78:40)

He said: When you read the tafseer you will find that in a hadeeth the prophet saaws mentioned that all creatures get justice and the weaker animal will get its right from the stronger one which oppressed it in the dunya then Allah orders them to become dust after they have had thier justice. When the kuffar see that, they say "we wish we were like these animals and we end as dust!"

In sha Allah he will send me the hadith tomorrow!

But he also said, I can wish for my cat in Paradise, so in sha Allah ...

The bold part of your post worth rupees million $ dear sis
Ofcourse every thing belongs to that time was pure,hygenic,chaste and lovely,even the dust becoz they have had the touch of my dear and beloved Prophet Muhammad SAW.
And as we cant compare our cats with the cats of that time,thats why i dont allow cats to share my meal
But i do like to give the little kittens milk sometimes

I'm sure there might be more with some more extensive research. Anyways, it's a lovely story, the Prophet(pbuh) was such a caring person to all living creatures. If I ever get a pet and it's a cat, I'm gonna name it Muezza

Al-salamu alaikum wa rahmatAllah wa barakatuhu,

I asked a Saudi Fatwa-Site and got following reply:

Salam alaikum,

On Wikipedia it says, the Prophet, sal Allahu alayhi wa salam, had a cat called Muezza. When the cat came to him and lay on his garment, he cut of the sleeve of the garment, so the cat continued sleeping and he could leave. Is that true?

Salam alaikum

Answer:

All Praise is for Allah.

We have not seen any hadith which proves that the Prophet (peace be upon him) had a cat and the rest of the story. Apparently it is false and there is no need to resort to it to prove the compassion of the Prophet (peace be upon him) for animals. There are authentic hadiths which prove that, e.g. the hadith which mentions the Prophet (peace be upon him) letting a cat drink water from a vessel etc.

Allah knows best.

IslamQ&A, Fatwa No. 163897

Here's from sunnipath. Not allowed to post links yet.

Question:


My cat that I have had and loved for 15 years just passed away and I was wondering what happens to animals once they pass away?? do they go to paradise? Also we chose for him to have a natural death at home on warm bedding instead of being euthanized at the vet...did we make the right choice even though he was really suffering?


Answer:


Walaikum assalam,

By clear Qur'anic text, you'll have whatever you wish for in Paradise. Thus, if you wish to have your cat in paradise, it will be with you, in the best of states.

But be sure to get there!

Faraz Rabbani


Awesome fatwa is awesome

BarakAllah feek Futuwwa - good news! Alhamdulillah!

So yes or no? I don't get it. Simple answer, not that good in english.

Since when did animals have no soul? O.o Trees also have souls, animals also have souls and they will go to paradise I heard.

In simple terms: If you get to Jannah, you will have everything you want there. Including any pets you want to bring along.

But will they have souls or not? What about trees?

I don't think it would be perfect if I had my wife in jannah, and she had no soul.

Well, of course she has one. Though, in her case she would have to earn salvation on her own, she wouldn't just be there because you wish her to be there.
