DOGS KEPT AS PETS DEPRIVE YOU OF MERIT
1735
“Whosoever keeps a dog except for hunting or guarding cattle will be deprived of two qirats of his merit every day."
We are also informed: "One qirat."
Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to ibn Omar who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
