The ruling on touching the dry hair of a dog
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We are a group who enjoy hunting, and we have hunting dogs. You know that a dog is ritually impure, so does touching the dog's hair with our hands make it ritually impure?
Answer:
As long as it is dry, it does not make it ritually impure. It is only if there are wet excretions on it; that is not permissible. The dog's saliva, its spittle, and its excretions are ritually impure. But merely touching it when it is dry, there is nothing wrong with that. However, it should not be kept in the house; it should be kept in another place, because it was reported in the hadithSunan Ibn Majah 3650Hasan (Darussalam) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was coming, they would make a place for it elsewhere, and it would not enter the house. Yes.

The angels do not enter a house in which there is a dog or an image.
