I am more concerned with hearing from any person or group helping (feeding etc) stray cats and dogs in Saudi, with a view to helping them from the U.K..

It’s really interesting how people like you , who have nothing to do except commenting on others, writing a very superficial time wasting blog ends with ” jeans”,following western life style without having a clue about your religion and history, talk about “Haya’a”, and calling them dead horse, who is the life one ” you ” ??, why don’t you get a real life doing something useful to the community, if you just know that without “Haya’a”, your close girl relatives might be attacked in the streets, but what do you know, go get some starbucks and listen to your Ipod, and leave decent people do their decent job.

Sale of pet in Saudi Arabia
Dear readers
The true Islam respects Cats, Dogs and all other animals. Prophet Mohammed (Peace and blessing of Allah be up on him) told a story of a man who received Paradise, The man was thirsty amid the desert, then saw a small well, he got down to the well and drank water, when he returned he saw a starving dog. He remembered his situation just few minutes before, then he again got down to the well, carried some water in his shoe and given it to that thirsty dog. The other story was of women who tied, tortured and let a cat to die of hungry who will go to hell. Listeners asked “ O Prophet, will we be rewarded from Allah over Four legged animals too, he replied, yes.
Like human life, animals life too sacred in Islam. Once, Prophet asked to put off the fire, when he saw ants passing by. In another occasion he asked a person who ill-treated his camel, don’t you fear Allah over this animal.
Prophet (Peace and blessing of Allah be up on him) has directed the people neither scolds nor curses the animals.
Here we should take care that, if we are having a pet animal we are not spending time and care for them to such an extent that we does not have time For other important activities like remembering God, helping poor and needy people, Undertaking family responsibilities and doing all other good deeds.
I feel fostering a pet is not good in the following cases.
1.When he can enjoy the presents of pet but cannot look after the welfare of it.
2. He use the pet for indecent activities like making pass on women and it disturbs families etc…
3.When he devotes his valuable time towards his pet forgetting all his other responsibility.

Poor Commission guys. Don’t they have more to do except have the SEX on their minds? They poke their nose where they should not, As part of their Islamic duty, why don’t they go to the Labor Courts and get justice for the poor people. Or why not they do not pull up the governemnt officials who are not found in their seats during their office timings at 7.30 in the morning. The Commission guys can do many other good jobs, but sick minded people they are, and the government is also damn scared of them.

Saudi’s don’t have balls to stand up to anyone or anything..only Sauid jeans maybe:)
Nooo amount of money, oil, or U.S. protection will earn your people respect when your people even feel threatened by little dogs and cats….
People might shake your hands, and give you props for being so kind to the rest of the world for providing us with oil, and closed minded fundamentalists..but behind your backs they mumble and laugh at your backwardness…
It’s better that your all protected from scary little animals, and everything else, because you fear everything and anything without ANY self control like little children..

Now Saudi Arabia has one more thing in common with Iran, did you know that this rule is strictly inforced by the Iranian Islamic government!! And for the same reason, it attaracts attention.
When the Islamic government came into power they went door to door poisoning dogs in peoples yards, these are people of different racial groups, and religons…from Armenians to Europeans, they would find their dogs sick and dead in their yards.
I had allot of interest in this topic of dogs as Najes..but once I looked into it, I found so much should I say “crap” that conflicted with reality. It turns out that dogs who were black were first considered evil, relating them to hyenas, yes hyenas. Hyenas were many during and well before the time of the profit, and many dogs were cross breed with hyenas,coyotes, and wolves. The dogs of the time were many times attacked or even part hyenas, making them dangrous, diseased, and scary. Allot of research has pointed out these reason for dogs being banned in Islam, even cave remains from across Jordan,the gulf, and Iraq.
plenty of Hadiths out there that really shin a light on this belief, it’s misuse, and irregularity. It’s amazing how little things make sense the more you look into them, so many statements, and we choose to hear only a few.
Everything has a begining some where, and rarely do people care to even go far enough to see the truth, where it started, and how it all morphed.

all pets could wear pet hijab while out in public so people could not see how cute they are and would not be tempted to pet them!

if fact the religious police in Saudi should require all pets and animals to wear hijab in public not just because the pets are cute, but their genitals hang out in plain view!

the religious police should also be required to wear full hijab in public just in case the people of Saudi arabia find them too cute to resist and may want to pet them too.

pet hijab is good concept.
