Restaurant Owner Refuses to Give Leftovers & Bones to Animal NGO Because Dogs Are Haram
There are many things that are considered haram in this country and sadly, it has come to this level. It’s 2018, how are there still people with this type of mindset?
Recently, the Malaysia Animal Association posted on Facebok about how shocked they were after receiving a response from a man when they asked if he could help feed some stray dogs.
Based on the post, the Malaysia Animal Association was asking a restaurant owner if he happened to have any leftovers or even bones they could collect to feed the 36 stray dogs that are under their care.
The restaurant owner, however, answered by saying that he definitely has leftovers but he didn’t want to get involved with anything “haram” as he claims that he, along with his restaurant, will be sinned. Therefore, he won’t provide any help for the Animal Association.
