Kindness to Animals

It is forbidden in Islam to treat an animal cruelly, or to kill it except as needed for food. The Prophet Muhammad often chastised his Companions who mistreated animals, and spoke to them about the need for mercy and kindness. Here are several examples of hadith which instruct Muslims about how to treat animals.

Reward for mercy: It is related from Abu Umama that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Whoever is merciful even to a sparrow, Allah will be merciful to him on the Day of Judgment."

Animals are like humans: “A good deed done to an animal is like a good deed done to a human being, while an act of cruelty to an animal is as bad as cruelty to a human being."

Animals cannot speak up for themselves: It is related from Sahl ibn Al-Handhaliyya that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, once passed by a camel that was so emaciated that its back had almost reached its stomach. He said, "Fear Allah in these beasts who cannot speak." (Abu Dawud)

Mental cruelty also forbidden: It is related from AbdulRahman bin Abdullah that a group of Companions were once on a journey with the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and he left them for a while. During his absence, they saw a bird with its two young, and they took the young ones from the nest. The mother bird was circling above in the air, beating its wings in grief, when the Prophet came back. He said, "Who has hurt the feelings of this bird by taking its young? Return them to her." (Muslim)

Forgiveness of sins: It is related from Abu Hurayra, from the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, that a prostitute once saw a dog on a very hot day going round and round a well, lolling its tongue because of its thirst. She drew some water for it using her shoe, and for this action all her sins were forgiven her. (Muslim)

Mistreatment is a sin: It is related from Jabir that the Messenger of Allah, once saw a donkey which had been branded on its face and he said, "May Allah curse the one who branded it." (Muslim)

Give rest to beasts of burden: It is related from Abu Hurayra that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Do not use the backs of your animals as chairs. Allah has made them subject to you, so that by them you can reach places that you would not otherwise be able to reach except with great fatigue." (Abu Dawud)


Hunting/Sport

In Islam, hunting for sport is prohibited. Muslims may only hunt as is needed to meet their requirements for food. This was common during the time of the Prophet Muhammad, and he condemned it at every opportunity:

It is narrated from Ibn Umar that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, cursed those who used any living thing as a target. (Muslim)
It is related from Ibn Abbas that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, forbade inciting animals to fight one another. (Abu Dawud and Tirmidhi)

It is related from Abu Al-Darda' that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, forbade eating mujaththama animals, that is, animals which have been tied up and shot with arrows. (Tirmidhi)

Slaughter for Food

Islamic dietary law allows Muslims to eat meat. Certain animals are not allowed to be used as food, and when slaughtering, several guidelines must be followed to minimize the animal's suffering. Muslims are to recognize that when slaughtering, one is taking a life only by the permission of Allah in order to meet the need for food.

If Islam gives even animals these kind of rights and tells us to be kind and Merciful to them what about how we need to act towards other human-beings.

I stand with this statement since Im not fond of killing any creatures unless they possess threats like snake and centipede

However if you are to kill the creature, kill it for the sake of cleanliness of your place, and to get His acceptance.

A thousand years ago, one boy with a dream of becoming a great warrior is abducted with his sister and taken to a land far away from home. Thrown into a world where greed and injustice rule all, Bilal finds the courage to raise his voice and make a change. Inspired by true events, this is a story of a real hero who earned his remembrance in time and history.

The reason this ummah is put into an ultimate disgrace by Allah is when the obligation of jihaad is fully ignored... Thus everyone turns to attach to the temporary worldly matters and begin to fear death. Their number is big, but they are just too weak and are useless.

Kesimpulannya, tidaklah terdapat sebrang halangan utk tidur selepas subuh. Cuma sunnah yang sebenarnya adlaah tidak tidur tetapi memanfaatkan waktu tersebut dgn amalan2 seperti zikir dan seumpamanya. Begitu juga tidur slps asar. Walaupun begitu tidur ptg mmg terbukti boleh membuatkan kita lemah tapi tidaklah sampai gila. apa yang penting, kata2 di atas tidak boleh dikatakan hadis drpd Rasulullah saw. memadailah sebagai petua biasa utk tidak melemahkan badan.

MIPHC KUPAS ISU PELUK ISLAM DI HADAPAN NON-MUSLIM DAN SAUDARA BARU

Sebuah forum telah dijalankan di hadapan tetamu Majlis Iftar Perdana Hidayah Centre (MIPHC) termasuk persatuan non-muslim. Antara yang hadir Dato Ambiga Sreenevasan, YB Tian Chua dan En Vasantha Kumar, President Indian Athma Sakhti Association. Forum ni telah mendapat respon yang positif termasuk non-muslim.

Antara isu yang dikupas adalah berkenaan dengan ISIS, masuk Islam sama masuk Melayu, hubungan dengan keluarga yang masib belum Islam dan pertukaran nama 'bin Abdullah'.

Semua isu ini telah dikupas dengan baik oleh ahli panel yang berpengalaman iaitu Ustaz Dr. Zaharuddin Abd Rahman, Ust Fitri (Tokoh Pendakwah dari kaum India) dan Dr A'thiroh (tokoh pendakwah dari kaum Cina).

Sbg contoh, ustaz Dr Zaharuddin telah memetik hadis yang mengharamkan untuk menukar nama bapa melainkan jika nama bapa membawa maksud syirik kpd Allah. Beliau menjelaskan bahawa menukar nama bapa kepada 'bin Abdullah' adalah sesuatu yang mengelirukan.

"bila masuk Islam shj tukar nama bin Abdullah..ni bapa siapa ni? jd ini adalah sesuatu yang mengelirukan" katanya dalam forum tersebut.

Explains Umar al-khatab, Khalid al-walid and others never changed their name to bin Abdullah while some muslim borns often insist reverts to do so.

Jazakallahu khayr for the sharing, may Allah protect us from having these munafeeqin traits
