A simple ad for the SPCA org.
A very meaningful story of an austistic Malay child and a dog that caught his attention.
Too bad if this ad is shown on tv, the child and his parents look Chinese.
People will not know the message behind this ad.
It is simple....Islam never says touching and rearing a dog is haram. Search in the Quran and you will never find any verse that says a dog is haram. In fact, in Surah 5:4 and Surah 18:18, neither mentions that dogs are unclean or nasty. The first states that animals captured by hunting dogs are halal to eat. The second describes a group of exemplary young men who happened to have a guard dog.
It has always been the misconception amongst the Malays who were brought up to think a dog is haram. It is najis and cannot be touched.
But if it is najis....handling a cat or any animal is also najis.
A dog is a man's best friend. A dog is the guardian, the protector.
