Pets and Jinns | Mufti Menk 

Guys you people really need to open your mind and try using it. No one is asking you to mistreat your cats or kick them out of your house. All he is saying is to monitor them. He is a scholar and counseller all kind of people come to him with all kind of things and here you are judging and saying all kind of things. Just pray that may Allah protect us from this kind of stuff and don't act so stiff cause Allah knows how to humble us, JazakAllahu khair

the biggest "pet" that wastes our time today is the android, not the cat,etc.

My cat wakes up with me before Fajr and stays with me while I pray, then he sleeps on the couch next to me while I do thikr, and read Qur'an, and sometimes the other 2 cats join us, Its so relaxing with them around❤

Guys, please don't give up your pets, they're innocent and have feelings ❤

Kindness towards animals will count in our deeds and ill-treatment of animals will count in our sins.

I would rather look after my pets than be surrounded by so many of out fake people. Animals are created by Allah and should be looked after by people

Cats WARN you of jinns!!! Don’t abandon your pets from doubts, be merciful & continue to care for them. Don’t listen to foolish misinformation, this will more likely cause doubts & constant self questioning your decisions about keeping cats. If you want mercy from Allah then do mercy & don’t abandon your pet who is dependent on you.

I read ayat ul kursi on my cat and i dont let him outside at maghrib time😅

Cats are found in madeena masjid e nabwi.

My whole life I have heard that keeping cat at home keeps away from jinn. I saw many lectures about it. But this message is totally different. Really couldn’t understand. I love my cat as my own child. He gives me joy and happiness. Alhamdulillah.

My cat approached me a month before my mother passed away. I was just standing outside and the kitten just came up to me and got into my home. Then didn't want to leave. I feel like he is God sent. Because I literally don't have anyone to be there for me when I'm struggling. I have been grieving the loss of my mom with my cat. I named him Mikhaeel. One thing noticeable is.. whenever Mikhaeel looks at me...... he looks at something else along my sides and around. As if there's someone or something with me that he sees but I can't..

Its blessings keeping cat and i love cats and kittens ❤

No one could understand the love of an animal until you have it❤❤❤..i have 2 cats..they are gift from Allah SWT..brought so much happiness

Cat as a pet is allowed in islam even in Masjid coz they have natural tendency to keep themselves clean Prophet Muhammad said that about it too

Alhamdulilah I am pet lover. Subhan Allah I enjoy Allah’s creation.

Regardless of everything Sheikh Menk mentioned, nobody said you cannot befriend a Djinn, there are good Djinns & bad Djinns. I have 7 dogs & over 90 rescued cats in my care. It is difficult to look after all of them on my own but it’s better than the alternative of them dying on the unforgiving streets of the city I live in where unfortunately some people are completely devoid of compassion or empathy and inflict harm upon animals.

Rasullulah Muhammad SAW told us that an adulteress would be saved from the hellfire because she fed a starving dog, whereas a religious woman who was always praying and fasting would be thrown into the hellfire because she was cruel to a cat. If you don't want to keep the cat, re-home it, don't be cruel and "get rid of it", unless you want to follow the example of the woman who will burn in hell for cruelty to a cat.

My cat died 2 years ago and I'm still sad. ,😞

I placed the Sajadah then go to take Wudhu. When I come back to the Sajadah, I saw my fur baby sits on it & wait for me to start my prayer, 🐈😆

Cats are so beautiful ❤ I'm obsessed with cats

Cat is a sunah ❤

I have had a cat for 6 years. He only had one eye since he was a kitten. The other eye was a problem for 5 years and needed constant attention. He is now free of his problem and enjoying his life, such a smart little guy!

I love my pet too much I can’t imagine my days without pet ❤

Before i brought my cats, i was disturbed by jinn that i couldnt sleep many nights n this goes on for few years until i read article that having cats can help to dispel jin, n yes it helps alot, now my cat is 9 years old n this 9 golden years i no longer been disturb by jinn with help of Allah swt, alhamdullilah cos cats helps to dispel the existence of jinn

Guys dont follow scholars. Follow only Quran & Sunnah. Cats are good animals. Showing kindness to animals also a good deed.

I'm sure there's a better way to deal with Jinn instead of getting rid of a Paak animal, our Almighty Creator has prescribed Ruqya for these matters, If cats are Paak then half the battle is already won, its only the Napaak Jinn to get rid off that's left...& Allah SWT knows best!!!

Dear my beloved cat Mimi who bring a lot of joy to my family.

Listen to it again if you didn't understand the scholar the first time, people tell them their real life problems, and they must have seen enough such cases to give this piece of advice. The word is "monitor" when you bring a pet animal to your home.

I love cats I have one too she is a blessing 🤲🏻🥰

Abu huraira r.a. also had many cats.. hence, he was called Huraira !!

Pets are better than bad humans

To remove a djin from your pet is a SIMPLE task! And no excuse to discard the pet. Removing Djin is in general is very simple unless they possess humans. I have worked with hundreds of animals in my life, and you wash them clean them , treat them well, the djin will for sure leave. You can use sage, singing, prayers. Humans with djin possession are everywhere though, so I rather stay away from most humans.

Sometimes even humans are carriers of Jinn...what's the solution? Can we not ask Allah to get rid of the jinn in animals or humans? Do we have special prayer for to ask for this ? Please continue with a few more videos on such topics.

First of all, cats are soooo lovely, second, Muhammad had a cat too,her name was Muezza and he loved her sooo much.

I have 3 birds and i sometimes pretend to play angry with words. Makes me happy have a joke with them but i love them. Just talk to ur pets makes u stress free 🥰

Love my 2 Burmese cats and they love me too ❤

Indeed, in doing good to every living being there is virtue that washes away sins

Play Surah Baqra at home to watd off all evil including jinns and bad spirits

Subbanallah nothing happen ...they make me joy

My cat brings me great joy, i got her in lockdown. I rescued her from a terrible fate. So as far as I'm concerned this video is tripe.

believe my cats are Jin but I am thankful to Allah he put these jins in my way. They have made me a good and kind human being. They are my best companions. Their presence is soothing and pleasant. They do not stress me but release my stress

We love cats, but in my country Nigeria some believed a Jinn can turn to one,can enter inside the cat, some witches turn to one tat night and attack their target spiritually, cat can see a Jinn, use it and dog for black magic etc. . I alwat s have jitters seeing one in the night. May Allah protect us all. Amgen.

Cats can see jinn. My cat has definitely seen them and she hides, so I start praying and then she’s fine. Read ruqyah verses.

What i really not understand, cat can bring jinn in to our home, please kindly clarify, i didnt heard this before , please clarify with hadith.

Your effort in educating people for living a better life is impressive! Subhanallah this is enlightenment

The Prophet (SAW) had cats as pets as they’re one of he’s favourite animals so far as i’m concerned to own a cat is a sunnah. This is the first time i’ve heard anything like this. People if your unsure on these things do not take mans advice read and research yourself never takes someone’s word on anything. Jzk Brother Menk for your message but this is really the least of the umrah’s issues in these times…

This particular point he is making here about cats is unacceptable. Because if it's true.. "Rasoolullaah would have named that sahaabi "Abu-Jinn" instead of calling him "Abu Hurairah" (Hurairah=Kitten). And remember "Abu Hurairah" was not his original name. That was his pet name because he often had a kitten with/around him (Abu Hurairah=Father of the Kitten). Furthermore we find that Rasoolullaah had never disapproved that, interestingly he also kept calling him by that name. So if there is any harm he would have prohibited that. He had all the rights to do it - not only because he is the Prophet, but also as the master of Abu Hurairah (Raliyallaahu Anhu), which means he used live around the prophet, serve him, very dearer & closer to him. That's the reason why he is called as the Sahabi who narrated most Hadheeses, like Aaisha(Raliyallaahu Anha). So here we should use our commonsense a little bit (specially since we find no direct hadheeses/records prohibiting this). If raising a (pet/)cat is that much harmful Rasoolullah wouldn't have allowed Abu Hurairah (Rali..) around him and his family with his cat (or a jinn as some people claim these days)! (Allaah Knows Best).

My Allah protect us Ameen suma Ameen ❤

I have many cats since 2003 till now. I am giving much services to them

Adorable kitties 😊

Those who don’t love the innocent don’t love anyone except themselves. And they will answer for that.

Allergies comes from plans animals of all.kinds ,but never never replace your cat ,never ,he is wrong ,dont listen to him

What are y'all disagreeing with? He didn't say you can't have pets, he just said be mindful of the impact of the pet in the home.

Aameen

U said totally different whatever i heared till now .i read once jinn loves cat and si they dont afraid people who love cats.i don't know it is tru or not.i just read it once.bur i have 12 cats now.there was a time i have rwenty.many times in day and night i was alone as my fsmily on trip but i never noticed anything strange in my cats.second i was suffering seasonal allergy like rhinitis for many years but after keelong cats alhamdulillah this allergy reduce so much

We absolutely love our 🐈 Our Nabi Muhammad peace and blessings be upon our Nabi he had a 🐈 tht he loved Our cat wakes us for fijr Every salaah our cat 🐈 wants to read aswell

Mufti also has several pets so please listen to the lecture again he's not saying just don't have pets.

I've had some unexplained activities in my house and it's always when I have a gray cat. I would never get rid of my beloved babies but it was weird

All animals have extra sensory perception. They sense shifts in energy. They see and feel and know the presence of the jinn and the angels. From what I understand the angels can be an awesome and terrifying presence even more so than the jinn or the shaytan.

My mother in law always says that i everytime disageee with it

I dont need cats to face jinn in my house. I myself am not afraid of jinns. I pet cats just because I love cats and they bring me joy. No more.

I had seven cats in my life time,each brought joy and happiness in my life,I want them to with me in heaven,because of the unconditional love they gave me,when I was sad,this man has a valid point but not true in most cases,

Aleykumselam verahmatullah veberakattu kardas

Cats are clean and they make the best pets even though they are part of my family and I love my cats because they are my kids too

I would not give up on my pet no matter what! If I was selected by Allah to take care of a living being, I will take care of it even if it kills me! There is always a reason why Allah chose us to have the little angels! ❤️

My cat is not toy or a furniture, he & she is family had since kitten. They are clever, clean, loyal.

Yes its true .. I've experienced and its really hurts our family 😭😭😭

When i was still in my country that was the propaganda i was always hearing that jinns move through cats so people could chase them away whenever they see them but few years later it turned out to be that i love cats alot morethan anything i don't even hw my family will react when they find out bt it's not gonna bother me coz am willing to own a cat when i move out in sha Allah 😊😊

Hmmmm.. my cats been with me for 10 years… people say he is a jinn bc of how humanlike and different he is from other cats. After this many years, my cat and I have imprinted on each other and is my most loyal companion

Many will not understand this lecture. Its not about the cat.

Most of you did not understand what he is saying at all, but you chose to comment anyways.

Yes Masha Allah Thank you Sheikh Mufti Menk

Interesting about the jinn.

I'm asthmatic but I love cats. ❤

can u please give some reference for it? as ive not read it anywhere else.

Just say bismillah when your cat comes in.

Thank you very for the information sheikh.

for me it is a bad advice to give away a pet just because a jinn came along. you cant control them coming so take care of the poor animal.

Is it not possible to exorcise (forgive me if muslims use a different word for this concept) the jinn if you happen to be attached to that particular cat? also, it was my understanding that jinn weren't necessarily all evil in islam, that some could be neutral or even good? Is this the case? If so, could a cat bring a good jinn?

AssalamuWalaikum w.b Brother I bought a cat on 1st January this year and in the last 5days I got 4 job interview calls with one job offer Alhamdulliah. What does this mean??

Keep cat in house is blessing and no jinn will or evil will come so please be kind to the animal's it is Allah creatures ❤

MY cat is very precious to me .

I didn’t watch the whole video so idk if you already answered it in the video, but can jinns GO INSIDE our pets and possibly posses them? Cause I have some concerns..

I assume what he means is that animals especially black cats etc can be jinns.. Allah knows best

I absolutely love my cat..She protect me against everything..I would never give her away,i dont care what people say,even its a family member..🤷She belongs to me..🤷👌

Ma Shaa Allah I like cat 🐈❤

Valykum assalam varehmathunnllahi vabarakathuhu

One thing I realised being brought up in a religious environment is most people can’t think for themselves. They constantly need advice for the most petty things. To a point where they get brain washed and become weak individuals who need to get advice on do drink a glass of water the right way. 🤦‍♂️As long there is “man, money and power” there is corruption. Believe in Allah, the one and only god….he listens and will answer your prayers….but be VERY careful of religion and religious groups….learn to think for your self and read the Quran.

Hafith: a lady was thrown into hell, because she mistreated her cat.

What about the mice, could they bring gin into the house?

We got a LOT of discord in the house since my husband brought in his second wife. I got a lot of sicknesses and allergic reactions, and my husband too. Plus, he has become arrogant. Say whatever you want, I am positive that that woman is a carrier of bad jinns.

Nothing about jinns there.

Its true jinns hide in pets such as cats and dogs. We should monitor them closely.

Tbh honest jinns can be taken out with ruqyah so you don't have to get rid of the pet quite the opposite I heard bad jinns don't like cats but it can be affected even inanimate objects can get possession by jinn so all that is required is ruqyah because it Isent specific to animals or humans but certain things give it opening to come for example having pictures statues music haram activities watching sinful content even watching TV i mean tv is probably th3 biggest gateway for jinns to come and entertain rather frighten us becarful of what content you watch if you watch Islamic content Muslim jinns will come and learn with you hope everyone reads surah baqarah once every 3 days ayat qursi after salah and morning n evening azkar all these and ayat from manzil ruyah if affected ofcourse keep house clean fragranced say bismilah at 5 times before entering house 2 before unclothing 3 before sexual intercourse 4 before going to toilet 5 before eating Also make sure no talisman charms crystals n the likes in the house which are magnets for jinns and most importantly stay away from sin most importantly do your obligatory actions and Allah will protect us may Allah give us tawfiq to put into action ameen

Salaam guys is there a hadith behind this?

you can watch the whole VIDEO OF Sheik's lecture and have better understanding of it 😊

What happens if it starts after a few years?

In the Al Quran Prophet Muhammad warned us not follow others books then Al Quran. Imams and followers of bukharie lead us on the wrong path away from Allah S.W.T.. that’s why the Ummah is divided in sects,we are not one like as the time of Prophet Muhammad .no Shia Sunni wasabi Sufi but we are Muslims. Allah knows best .

Keeping cats keeps jinns away

It's a complicated story, but in short- Four months after getting married, my husband brought home an abused young lovebird for me to "rescue". She was so beautiful that it was love at first sight for me. BUT, my marriage ended up going through hell after that. I had NO peace of mind after bonding with the bird. The discord in our home went through the roof! There were CONSTANT arguments because of the bird; imagine that! At the point where things became physical, and I got injured defending the bird- I found someone willing to take it for adoption. Guess what? Things got drastically better for us. AND, I believe something was sent purposely through that bird to break us up. I know it sounds crazy, but I don't care. I'm just saying.
