I know that it is not permissible to keep a dog as a pet, but what
about foxes and wolves? It is known from years of experience that it
is possible to train these animals and live with them. What is the
shar'i ruling on that?.
Praise be to Allaah.
It is not permissible to keep and train foxes, wolves and other
predators such as lions and tigers, because there is no benefit in
that, and because keeping them may lead to great harm, as there is no
guarantee that they will not get loose and harm people. Moreover,
keeping them is a waste of money and spending on something
inappropriate. It is also an imitation of those spendthrifts who have
no ambition except satisfying their whims and desires.
Al-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said inal-Majmoo'(9/286-287):
The second category of animals is those in which there is no benefit,
so it is not permissible to sell them, such as dung beetles, scorpions
and snakes. ... Our companions said: that also includes wild animals
that are not suitable for hunting with or fighting, and cannot be
eaten, such as lions, wolves, tigers, bears and so on. Sales of such
animals are not valid, because there is no benefit in them. End quote.
Zakariya al-Ansaari (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
Sales of insects that are of no benefit are not permissible, and
neither are sales of wild animals that are of no benefit, such as
lions, wolves and tigers. The awe involved when kings keep such
animals and show that they can handle them is not regarded as being of
any benefit, unlike cases in which there is some benefit, such
leopards for hunting or, it was said, elephants for war. End quote.
Fath al-Wahhaab, 1/273
The Scholars of the Standing Committee for Issuing Fatwas were asked
about the shar'i ruling on dealing in or keeping animals that are used
to fulfil whims and desires, including predators such as wolves,
lions, foxes and so on.
They replied:
It is not permissible to sell predators such as wolves, lions, foxes
and other wild animals that have fangs, because the Prophet (blessings
and peace of Allah be upon him) forbade that. And because it is a
waste of money, and the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon
him) forbade wasting money. End quote.
Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa'imah, 13/38-21
It is well known that many of those who keep and train predators find
that the animal does not forget its wild origins and devours its
keeper, or attacks him or someone else.
There is a story that a Bedouin took a young wolf and raised it on the
milk of a sheep he had, and he said to himself: If I raise it with the
sheep, it will develop compassion towards it and will protect it, and
it will be better than a dog, and will not know the ways of its own
kind. But when it grew strong, it pounced on the sheep and devoured
it, and the Bedouin said:
You ate my little sheep although you grew up amongst us;
How did you know your father was a wolf?
Muhaadaraat al-Udaba', 1/115

Dought & clear, - Is it provenin the Sunnah that if a man wants to move house he should do so on a Wednesday?
Is it really a hadith that it is preferred when moving to a new house
to do so on Wednesday? If so what is the source and authenticity of
the hadith.
Praise be to Allaah.
We do not know of any hadeeth from the Prophet (blessings and peace of
Allah be upon him) or any report from any one of his Companions (may
Allah be pleased with them) to suggest that if a man wants to move
house that should be done specifically on a Wednesday. In this regard,
Wednesday is just like any other day.
What the wise person must do is look at what is best for his
circumstances, such as getting the new house ready for the move,
arranging to rent trucks, and other necessary arrangements. He should
also check that there is a suitable mosque close by in the new
neighbourhood where he can offer the prayers on time and not be
distracted from doing so for any unacceptable reason, without singling
out any particular day for doing that.

Dought & clear, - Ruling on students standing up to greet the teacher when he enters the classroom
It is customary for the students to stand up out of respect for the
teacher when he enters the classroom. Is that permissible?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Al-Tirmidhi (2754) narrated that Anas (may Allaah be pleased with him)
said: "No person was dearer to them than the Messenger of Allaah
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). When they saw him, they
did not stand up, because they knew that he disliked that." Classed as
saheeh by al-Albaani inSaheeh al-Tirmidhi.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) disliked them
to stand up for him, out of humility towards his Lord, and so as to
differ from the custom of the arrogant and tyrants.Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi.
The scholars of the Standing Committee for Issuing Fatwas were asked:
What is the Islamic ruling on students standing up for their teachers
when they enter the classroom? Is it permissible or not?
They replied:
The best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad (peace and blessings
of Allaah be upon him) and the worst of matters are those which are
innovated. The best of generations is that to whom the Messenger
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) came, and the generations
who came after him, as is proven from him (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him). His practice with his companions with regard to
this matter was that when he came to them, they did not stand up for
him, because they knew that he disliked that. So this teacher should
not tell his students to stand up for him, and they should not obey
him if he tells them to do that, because there is no obedience to any
created being if it involves disobedience towards the Creator.
And Allaah is the Source of strength. May Allaah send blessings and
peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and companions. End

For children, - The Philosophy behind silence:More Listening, Less Talking
There is a certain stress placed on silence in some traditions. This
stress is such that we can prefer silence to speaking. What is the
philosophy behind this silence? When is it recommended?
As said, the tongue reflects what is in the heart. It expresses one's
inner feelings and thoughts. It portrays one's character and
personality. There are also possible harms due to its use. Imam Ali
(as) says: "The tongue is a beast that will cause an injury when
unleashed." Imam Ali (as) also says: "Man is a wonderful creature; he
sees through the layers of fat (eyes), hears through a bone (ears) and
speaks through a lump of flesh (tongue)."
A person must ask himself before saying anything: "Is there any need
for me to talk?" If there is a need, then it is fine to talk.
Otherwise, silence is better because refraining from unnecessary
speech is a form of worship. Abdullah ibn Masood (RadhiAllahu Anhu)
said: "I swear by the One besides Whom there is nothing worthy of
worship: one's need to imprison their tongue is greater than anything
else."
Silence: The easiest form of worship
Prophet Muhammad (saw)says: "Do you want me to inform you about the
easiest and least straining form of worship? They are being silent and
having a good temper."
An Arab came to Prophet Muhammad (saw) and asked him to teach him
something to enable him to go to Heaven. Prophet Muhammad (saw) said:
"Feed the hungry. Quench the thirst of the thirsty. Advise the people
to do good deeds and admonish them against evil deeds. If you do not
have any power, just guard your tongue from whatever is not good."
Also Prophet Muhammad (saw) says: "A believer's tongue is located
behind his heart. Whenever he wants to talk, he first presents his
words to his heart. If the heart approves of what he wants to say it
issues an order to the tongue to utter the words. However, if the
heart does not issue a permit, then the lips stay sealed. But a
hypocrite's tongue is the leader of his heart. Whenever he wills to
say something, he utters it without the approval of his heart."
It has been narrated that some people were talking together in
Muawiyah ibn Abu Sufyan's palace. Al-Ahnaf ibn Qays was quietly
sitting in a corner. They asked him: "O' Aba Bahr! Why don't you
talk?" He said: "If I lie, I shall fear Allah (SWT). Moreover, if I
tell the truth, I shall fear you. Thus it is best that I do not talk
at all." The importance of silence became clear from the traditions
cited. We learned that man could remain secure from the dangerous
potential of committing a sin in talking by remaining silent. An
intelligent person first trusts his words to his intellect and
conscience to judge before uttering them. If the intellect and
conscience do not give him permission to express those words, then he
remains silent. The traditions that encourage us to remain silent are
meant to free us from the potential bad consequences of bad talk. It
is obvious that talking is an important factor in the development of
man and the society as stated before.*

Fathwa, - His mother asks him to accompany his female cousins to and from public places
Question
AsalamoAlikum Kindly Help me on the following situation. quite some
times my female cousins come to our home. Majority of females in my
famliy and among my cousins do not do proper Hijab and neither do they
take care of mixing. My mother asks me to take her, my sisters , and
cousins to shopping malls or some other public place. Is it allowed
for me to take them in this situation given that they do not do Hijab.
some of them consider Hijab not necessary and consider headcovering
and normal clothes okay. Kindly guide me to the correct application in
this situation. Would it be ok for me to take my family and cousins
given that they abide by shariat rules and I do not interact with my
cousins and just drive? Jazak Allah
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that
Muhammadis His slave and Messenger.
If a young man goes out with some of his female relatives who do not
wear Hijaab, then this includes some prohibitions, among which are the
following:
- Getting in the car with them involves seeing their beauty and this
is forbidden according to the agreement of the scholarsunless the
woman is a wife or a female Mahram, as Allaah Says )what means(: }Tell
the believing men to lower their gaze )from looking at forbidden
things(, and protect their private parts )from illegal sexual acts(.
That is purer for them. Verily, Allaah is All-Aware of what they
do.{]Quran 24:30[
- Going out with them is like confirming this evil they are doing, and
this is not permissible as it is an obligation to forbid evil as the
Prophetsaid: "Whoever amongst you sees an evil, he should change it
with his hand )i.e. physically(, if he is unable, then he should
change it with his tongue )i.e. verbally( and if he is unable, then he
should change it with his heart )by detesting it in his heart( and
that is the weakest level of faith."]Muslim[ Thus, the
Prophetconsidered changing evil in one's heart as the weakest level of
faith, and denying something with one's heart could only be achieved
by deserting the people who commit sins and staying away from their
company, and it is more confirmed to stay away from them while they
are committing the sin.
- If people see a righteous young man with such girls, they would not
think good of him, and the scholarsclarified that it is an obligation
to stay away from the places of suspicion.
Dear brother, all these disadvantages may happen even when obliging
those girls to abide by the Sharee'ah rulings when dealing with you.
Therefore, we advise you to avoid going out with them, and this is a
very good way of making them feel that what they do is wrong. However,
you should be lenient with your mother and apologize to her in a soft
and gentle manner if she asks you to go out with those girls.
Finally, you should know that the right of Allaah is greater than the
right of anyone else.
Allaah Knows best.
