/r/dogfree will love this!
This particular flavor of religious absurdity is new to me.
Banning abortions is also a religious absurdity, and a more dangerous one. After all, no one died from not having a dog.

Everyone who hasn’t owned a dog has died.
Tell that to people who need working dogs
If they banned abortion for dogs, it would be both novel and dangerous.
Well, like, are they supposed to bike or drive?
This is why combining religion and government is always a bad idea.
What a bunch of weirdos
Wtf Iran? Anyone from Iran here willing to comment? The article pretty much sums it up as for religious reasons. But my question is, why now? Anything else happening that triggered this?
According to Islam Q&A
Islam forbids Muslims to keep dogs, and the punishment for that is that the one who does that loses one or two qirats from his hasanat (good deeds) each day. An exception has been made in the case of keeping dogs for hunting, guarding livestock and guarding crops.
That’s a bit wild. I’m from the Middle East and there’s not much love for dogs because we have a lot of stray dogs that are legit scary and dangerous.
There are rules about not keeping dogs where you pray but it’s a pretty extremist stance to forbid keeping dogs. I have some pretty religious family and even some of those have dogs.
If you search on google for Islam rules you’re gonna find a lot of Westboro Baptist Church kinda sources that have nothing to do with how normal people live.
They turned religion into bookkeeping lol
Have you met any Jewish people? 😀
I have but they weren’t orthodox
What about cats ?
They’re fine, prophet approved, but good luck walking them on a leash 😀
Many cats are able to be leashed trained.
Goldfish are fine though right?
