Ruling on Reciting the Qur'an in a House Where There Is a Dog

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: The brother A. B. from Alexandria says in his question: What is the ruling on reciting the Qur'an in a house where there is a dog?

A: There is no harm in that, and it is obligatory to remove the dog and not let it remain in the house, except if it is for one of three purposes: hunting, farming, or herding; based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
He who keeps a dog other than one for guarding the fields or herds or hunting, will lose two Qirat every day out of his rewards.من اقتنى كلبا إلا كلب صيد أو ماشية أو زرع فإنه ينقص من أجره كل يوم قيراطان
Riyad as-Salihin 1688
agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim. And success is from Allah.
