Keeping a dog to guard the house
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a person keeps a dog to guard the house, is there any harm in that?
Answer:
A house does not need a dog to guard it. A house is enclosed and locked with doors; it does not need a dog for protection. It is the open crops or the livestock in the open that need guarding. As for houses, they have walls and doors, so there is no need for a dog.
