Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah. Welcome to brothers sisters I hope
you guys are doing very well. Masha Allah, Allah subhanaw taala
bless all of us. So I want to speak about something today very
quickly, which many people would be surprised about and Hamdulillah
I mean, in my trials, I found there's a lot of people with pets
especially cats, Mashallah. And a lot of people don't know that if
you just by the normal, readily available pet food and cat food
that you find out there a lot of is haram. In fact,
one of the studies showed that even those that have just fished
fish and so on, that also includes other aspects and it can't be
guaranteed because they're not that particular budget when it
comes to pets and so on. Now, what's really interesting is that
you're not allowed actually. And I remember the first time I found
out about this many, many years ago it was it came as quite a bit
of a surprise to me that you can't feed your pet haram you can't feed
a cat I mean, the cat you know you can't feed haram neither can you
feed dogs Haram as such. So where does this come from? Well,
firstly, there's a hadith in Sahih al Bukhari from Jabba ignore
Abdullah the Allahu anhu, where he said that he heard the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam on the day of the his entry, and victory
in Macomb, Karima. Right. That was the day where the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that Allah and His Prophet, Allah
and His Messenger has made unlawful the trade of alcohol and
dead animals carry on write pigs and idols. So essentially, when
you buy cat food, you are trading in Haram. And number two, the
other bigger problem is that you actually bring haram into your
house to feed your cat, I mean, that that should go against you
know, any aspect of sensitivity, I mean, that we have towards these
things. So then also, I mean, if I just take a few one or two quotes
from the Hanafi scholars, you've got fatawa copy Han, which is a
very, very famous book, Imam colicky in there mentions that
likewise, the dead animals, so most of the stuff that is not I
mean, nearly everything that is not slaughtered properly,
according to the Islamic rituals as such, right? Where they cut it
properly and, and so on, then that is considered a major or a
carrying right in our faith. And he says what can radicalize Mita
likewise carrying meaning anything that is not sorted properly or
that has died on its own label to a mohawk killer, but you should
not even feed that to his dog Liana vedika indifferent, because
that is a method of benefiting from carrion and is not allowed to
benefit from carrying in that way. Likewise, in the fatawa, India, it
says wakad was one of our scholars, our jurists, they say
the ledgers are indifferent, or bill may, Tatiana Aug him? What
are you to enable her elke lab,
they say that it is not permitted to benefit through carrying dead
meat, essentially, non ritually slaughtered meat in any way
whatsoever, and you cannot feed even his cats, right? So his dogs
mentioned there. So that might come as a big surprise to a lot of
you. And so what do we do now? Right? So there's some people who
know about this already, because we get asked the questions and
they prepare their own meals, they give them you know, scraps or
leftovers from their own food that they could cook at home. But of
course, that's not always easy to do. And that's complicated
sometimes right? Now, look, if your pet does go out, your cat
goes out eats from the neighbor's house, for example. They feed it
something that's not that's not an issue because you're not doing
that right. Likewise, if it goes and eat something haram about so
whatever it is, that's its problem. That's not something that
but we can't actively feed it something right. We can't actively
feed it something haram that's the thing. So you can either cook for
yourself, right? Or, you know, that's but now at hamdulillah Al
Hamdulillah. You know, I've been some this company mashallah
brother, Tisha, I'm from Herrera, pet foods, right? Herrera, pet
foods. Hooray. Oh, by the way, in between, right coming from the
name of Abu Huraira really, Allah wants even Abu Huraira the Allahu
Anhu he was given that name, though. His name was Abdul Rahman
who suffer Right? Or the Allahu Anhu because he had a little kit
so it was an appropriate name Haryana means a small kids and you
know, a kitten basically. So it's very appropriately named cat food,
essentially pet food rather. And so hamdulillah what really
interesting they, they they've gone to Malaysia they've gone to
you know, get get something from the best source available, very
nutritious and so on. Let them explain that to you. Right. I'm
here to tell you that mashallah they also HMC approved. That's an
amazing it's one of the first pet foods that are HMC approved Halal
monitoring committee that's been approved by them, Ma sha Allah so
go to Herrera pet foods right if you want to check this out and
subscribe, right especially if you're a if you're a cat owner,
and you want to feed it once they launched then they'll let you know
and why am I doing this? You know, what do I get number one to let
people know Right? Primarily that even pets need to be fed halal
food, right? Anything which is halal, right. But number two
The what sweeten the deal for for me and made this you know
something more beneficial for us is that white thread which is our
organization has a huge debt and mashallah Herrera pet foods is
willing to donate a certain amount in Sharla for every subscription
they receive, so go to her ala Halal pet foods so the website is
Hurairah pet foods should be on the screenshot Allah or underneath
and you you register basically and from this from the
where it says Where did you hear about us choose white thread insha
Allah and that way once you start starts subscribing, inshallah we
get insha Allah eventually we will get a donation for white thread
Alhamdulillah spread this as far as possible if you're a cat owner
or you know a cat owner send it to them, send it to others, you know
who you know have pets mashallah and May May this be a good venture
and may we find Halal in many other things. May Allah suffices
with the halal away from the haram. Right and this is all part
of were encouraged by Allah Subhana Allah and His messenger to
look after our pets. Right. And part of that is also that we can't
give it haram and we want to feed her we definitely don't want to
bring haram into our homes. That's what we definitely want. I want to
do Insha Allah, so does that go ahead and we hope for many other
ventures like this that are providing Halal in our community.
Allah bless you all. And please pray for wait through as well. And
As salam o Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
