Contest:- One Picture, One Story week # 15
Allah Almighty has created animals for our benefit. There must be some wisdom in the birth of every living being.Whether we know it or not, Animals are the creation of Allah, so it is right to take advantage of them, but it is a sin to hurt, kill or disturb them.
Our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) has commanded us to treat animals well.People treat animals very badly and look down on them as if they are not the product of Allah Almighty.
Allah Almighty has not created anyone with out wisdom.We get benefit from domestic animals like buffalo, cow, horse, donkey etc. in pets, we also think about their food because we get benefit from them, but our behavior towards animals is very bad like Dog Cat etc.
Many animals have been mentioned in the Holy Qur'an, many of which are by the name of animals, such as the 'Albaqra the cow, 'Alanam chopaiay 'Anahal the bee, 'Anamal the ant, 'Alankaboot the spider, 'Alfeel the elephant, etc.
In the Qur'an, Allah has described the benefits of animals and their profits as follows. And it is He who created the four animals ,in them there is a warm garment for you, and there are many other benefits, and you eat the flesh of some of them, and there is also a splendor in them for you when you bring a lamp in the evening and when you bring it in the morning.
You do not carry your burden and they carry your burden to cities where you cannot reach without hard physical labor. Indeed, your Lord is Most Compassionate Most Merciful.
Animals are such that they do heavy work like donkeys, horses, etc., so they should be given as much work as they can carry, they should not be wronged, nor should they be beaten.And it is very wrong not to beat them and to oppress them because they do a lot of work for us.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) has also emphasized on treating animals well in many places.Once some people set fire to the ants' burrows, due to which they were burnt to ashes.
"He (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "You have no right to burn any living thing in the fire."In Sahih Muslim, it is narrated from Hazrat Ibn Umar that he once passed by some young men who were targeting a bird or chicken by tying it.
Hazrat Ibn Umar saw them and ran away from there. said that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) has cursed the person who targets any living thing by tying it to something.
By studying Sirat-e-Tayyaba, it is known that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) has ordered kindness towards animals step by step, not only domestic and domestic animals, but also urged good behavior towards wild animals.
It has been ordered to kill even small animals with minimum suffering.Cruel treatment of the animals being slaughtered is als prohibited.
We have urged to load animals and feed them during the journey and it is hypocritical to load too much and carry more people.
We should also take care of animals and not hurt them.Do not kill them unnecessarily or tease them. If you have pets at home, take care of their food and drink and try to protect them from the effects of the seasons.
Taking care of the animals that come to the house on the occasion of Eid-ul-Azha is a rewarding work and a matter of virtue.Animals cannot speak, they are alive, but people treat them as lifeless and beat them, this is wrong.
