(Voodoo by killing birds in the Bible is below)As'salamu Alaikum dear brother Zakir and Everyone,
I've been looking at the top videos that CP and also David Wood have put out, and I saw that the above topics and the cats and dogs in Islam ones are the top ones. The rest are opinionated and emotional videos about the
Prophet being victorious by his spear and stuff like that.
In regards to cats being clean to own as pets, but dogs aren't clean to own as pets inside the house, and that you can only have them as guard dogs, and that the Prophet ordered the killing of all dogs, and that
all black cats and dogs are satanic, I am building a rebuttal that will put this to rest. Basically, it'll go like this:
1- The Hadiths are known to contain out of historical context contradictions and lack of clarity some times:
www.answering-christianity.com/warning.htm2- The Glorious Quran mentions the people of the Cave as having their dog as their companion. I don't see anything wrong with a dog being a companion, even though we do not have cats or dogs in the house. I dislike owning either one of them.
3- The hadiths are in contradiction regarding dogs. What are we supposed to do with dogs?
a. Kill them all?
b. Own them as guard dogs for our livestock?
c. Rescue them when they're in need?
(as the prostitute woman who rescued the dog and entered Paradise because of this).
All three points are found in the hadiths. My response to them is:
a. Kill all wild and rabid dogs, especially when they're in packs. Even today,
they do euthanize them.
b. Yes, own some big dogs to protect your livestock and family, especially the kids.
c. Yes, be merciful to all animals as Allah Almighty Commanded us to be merciful to all of His creations:

You also find in the hadiths that black cats and dogs are satanic.
This is superstitious pile of dung! You won't find any garbage like this in the Quran. You only find this type of lies and gossip in the hadiths. I do not believe that the Prophet, peace be upon him, spoke these hadiths.
Voodoo by killing birds in the Bible:
I also would like the reader to know that we do find voodoo practices in the Bible, where if you want to keep evil out of your house, you must kill one bird,
dip another in its blood mixed with wood:
Leviticus 14:49-53
49 To purify the house he is to take two birds and some cedar wood, scarlet yarn and hyssop.
50 He shall kill one of the birds over fresh water in a clay pot.
51 Then he is to take the cedar wood, the hyssop, the scarlet yarn and the live bird, dip them into the blood of the dead bird and the fresh water, and sprinkle the house seven times.
52 He shall purify the house with the bird’s blood, the fresh water, the live bird, the cedar wood, the hyssop and the scarlet yarn.
53 Then he is to release the live bird in the open fields outside the town. In this way he will make atonement for the house, and it will be clean.”
Your guilt and your right ear & right toe:
Leviticus 14
14 The priest is to take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot.
15 The priest shall then take some of the log of oil, pour it in the palm of his own left hand,
16 dip his right forefinger into the oil in his palm, and with his finger sprinkle some of it before the Lord seven times.
17 The priest is to put some of the oil remaining in his palm on the lobe of the right ear of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of their right hand and on the big toe of their right foot, on top of the blood of the guilt offering.
18 The rest of the oil in his palm the priest shall put on the head of the one to be cleansed and make atonement for them before the Lord.

www.answering-christianity.com/superstition_and_islam.htmJazaka Allah Khayr for motivating me, akhi Zakir. I need this kind of bump and/or push to keep going. I sometimes slip into life and end up neglecting writing rebuttals. The infidels are relentless out there, and so must we be also against their lies.
Take care,
