Selling cats and dogs is un-Islamic
In an attempt to stop the spread of “Western ideas” in Islamic culture, Saudi’s religious police have been instructed to stop all sales of cats and dogs.
In the past decades, owning dogs or cats has become a fashion statement among Saudis, a Saudi news report said on Saturday.
Showing off a Doberman, pit bull or a fancy breed of feline has become a status symbol.
For religious conservatives, however, the practice is a dangerous immitation of non-Islamic cultures, just like eating fast food, wearing shorts and jeans, or listening to pop music.
Dogs and cats are over-rated anyway. Who’s down for Hyena ownership? Just check out the Hyena owners of Nigeria.
