The Ruling on Keeping Birds in Cages
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks: What is the ruling on keeping birds in a cage for the purpose of looking at them, while providing them with food at their times? May Allah reward you.
Answer:
I do not know of any harm in that, if he provides them with their food, does not leave them hungry, and does not wrong them; there is nothing wrong with it; because in this case he has honored them and treated them well. It may be beneficial for children, or for non-children, if they see them.
The point is: if keeping them in cages does not harm them, but rather he feeds them and gives them drink; there is no harm.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
