Scottie dogs offend islam

Quote:

Malaysian politicians claim it was offensive and disrespectful to Muslims to use Scottie dogs in Commonwealth Games opening ceremony

The Scottie dogs which stole the show at the spectacular Commonwealth Games opening ceremony in Glasgow did not get quite as warm a reception with some Malaysian politicians.

The animals which led each team in the parade of athletes at the event in Celtic Park proved a hit on Twitter - but have earned the ire of officials in the Islamic country as dogs are considered unclean by some Muslim scholars.

During the parade of athletes, each team was led by a Scots man or woman in tweeds walking a Scottish terrier wearing a jacket bearing the name of the country.

'This is just so disrespectful to Malaysia and Muslims – especially as it happened during Ramadan,' he added, according to the Daily Telegraph.

'Muslims are not allowed to touch dogs, so the organiser should have been more aware and sensitive on this issue. It is hoped this incident can teach other Western countries to be more respectful in the future.'

Dato Ibrahim Bin Ali, a far-Right politician, former MP and founder and president of Malay supremacist group Perkasa called the use of the dogs 'shameful' and 'offensive'.

A Glasgow 2014 spokesman said there have been no complaints about the dogs from any of the nations taking part.

I share the hurt and outrage of muslims. I am a New Age Muslim as most people know. Let me tell you of an ugly incident that happened just yesterday. My friend, Muhammad, and me were walking to Parramatta railway station when a man walking a dog approached us from the opposite direction. The dog went crazy and started howling. We asked the man what the problem was and he said his dog, also called Muhammad, considered muslims as unclean. He said his dog always reacted that way when he was close to muslims. The dog then had a big chunder and the man and his dog hurried away.

Yes, we can all understand how the sensitivities of moslems have been offended !! Tongue

I would have thought that it would have been obvious to all, that Scottie dogs are so UN-ISLAMIC!

Why is it that the non-moslems of Western Europe have not been helping to exterminate all Scottie dogs - worldwide - as a concession to moslems and as a demonstration - from non-moslems - that they [non-moslems] are seeking to promote inter-cultural harmony with moslems ??? Tongue

Coz.....

"[ISLAM] promotes peace and harmony."

What? The Muslims are not rioting and suing Scotland for scotty doggy Islamophobia??

But seriously - how nice it would be if Muslims started respecting their hosts cultures? How about that?
Instead of always acting like a bunch of prats, eager to be offended by anything and everything.

I see the Islamophobes are making a mountain out of a molehill again.

Quote:

Islam
Main article: Islam and dogs

The majority of both Sunni and Shi'a Muslim jurists consider dogs to be ritually unclean.[25] It is uncommon for practising Muslims to have dogs as pets.[26]

There are a number of traditions concerning Muhammad's attitude towards dogs. He said that the company of dogs, except as helpers in hunting, herding, and home protection, voided a portion of a Muslim's good deeds.[27] On the other hand, he advocated kindness to dogs and other animals.

Another source that supports the kind treatment of dogs in Islam is seen with the narration by Abu Huraira Volume 3, Book 40, Number 551.[28] He narrated that the Prophet said:

"While a man was walking he felt thirsty and went down a well, and drank water from it. On coming out of it, he saw a dog panting and eating mud because of excessive thirst. The man said, 'This (dog) is suffering from the same problem as that of mine.' So, he (went down the well), filled his shoe with water, caught hold of it with his teeth and climbed up and watered the dog. Allah thanked him for his (good) deed and forgave him. The people asked ``O Allah's Apostle! Is there a reward for us in serving (the) animals? He replied: ``Yes, there is a reward for serving any animate (living being).[28]

Additionally many Muslim theologians have argued[citation needed] that the dog is not an unclean animal based on the inclusion of a dog among the Seven Sleepers as recorded in the 18th verse of the 18th chapter of the Qur'an,[29] which reads:

Thou wouldst have deemed them awake, whilst they were asleep, and We turned them on their right and on their left sides: their dog stretching forth his two fore-legs on the threshold: if thou hadst come up on to them, thou wouldst have certainly turned back from them in flight, and wouldst certainly have been filled with terror of them.
(Surah Al Kahf, Qur'an: 18)

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogs_in_religion#Islam]

Appears like most religions, mixed messages are given and you can pick and choose which one you want believe. Typical that the Islamophobes only choose the one that reinforces their criticisms of Islam and Muslims. Grin

Maybe there not taking the blind person not out of disrespect, maybe they just dont want a dog in there taxi.

Imagen the drivers working 12 hour shifts to make $100, and a dog runs or pisses in there taxi, so the driver is left to clean it up and waste his time.

Thats only my view.

My mate is a cabbie driver and he refuses to take drunk people cause there always vomit in his taxi.
