May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks about keeping dogs in the house?
The Shaykh:
It is not permissible. Angels do not enter a house in which there is a dog or an image. Therefore, it is not permissible for him to bring a dog into his house. If he needs it for guarding, he should provide a place outside for it to enter, rather than bringing it into his house. Yes.
