The Cat & the Imam 😺 - Mufti Menk Responds 

I’m in Ireland 🇮🇪 this went on our national news channel . It was the first time many people ever heard the Quran in their lives ❤every house heard it

His first instinct was to pet and support the cat. Subhanallah.

Not Muslim, but as an animal lover, I really appreciate this.

Imam + Cat + Algeria = MASHALLAH PERFECTION

I rescue and rehab cats.

THIS IS THE BEAUTY OF ISLAM. IT HAS RIGHTS FOR EVERY CREATURE ON THIS PLANET EARTH. SUBHAN ALLAH

After being spiteful for years, not praying and abandoning religion because I had an axe to grind. I was blessed with something I knew I didn't deserve. I have tears in my eyes, an evil and hard person like me who hasn't cried in years. This will be a start of a new journey for me. I guess I never did believe in redemption, but I do now. Thank you.

as my self being an Algerian cat person , this video of the cheikh kindly interacting with the cat and continuing his recitation perfectly showing to the world what really it does mean to be a Muslim , my heart felt so warm , and the cat was soooooo cute 😻😻😻😻

The atmosphere of Ramadan in Algeria is unparalleled in the whole world... All villages and cities have banquets in the streets, and families gather at iftar tables with all their spectra, rich and poor, and passers-by. We ask Allah to bring us together in heaven

I adopted my cat when I was 18 and I’m 30 now. I love him to pieces and can’t imagine life without him. He’s truly my best friend. ❤

Mufti Menk quite rightly teaches everyone to be compassionate towards animals...Very inspiring......

SubhanAllah! Alhamdulillah! Allahu akbar! Tears of relief... I am a Veterinarian, a small animal practitioner meaning i treat dogs and cats mostly. I have been struggling so much about the treatment of animals and the deen, specially i am a revert just recently. Thank you oh so much. Jazak Allahu khairan! 🐾🤲🏼💕

i’m waiting for this from Mufti Menk ❤️, the brother imam didn’t even flinch or any changes in his voice even slightly, he really really really really understand, that he’s talking to his lord, and he’s in the safe and blessed place, and whatever happens in sallah is inshaAllah❤️, i watch the video again and again and it brings tears to my eyes and Alhamdulillah makes me even happier this month of Ramadan❤❤❤☝️🤲🏼🌏

Glory be to Him who made this cat a reason to hear a beautiful recitation

i'm from Algeria. 🇩🇿 thank you sheikh Menk! & Baraka Allaho fik 🤍

I just talked about the Imam fews hours ago with my family. The video so amazing. I also love your message Mufti Menk,that we have to be kind to all creatures , even to a tree / plant ❤. HAPPY Idul Fitri Mufti Menk and all of brother and sister in the world.

And so is my kitten, It sits on my back when I prostrate. But she died and I still haven't recovered from that sadness. She is very beautiful😢💔😭😌

Revered Sheikh اسلام علیکم how sweet blessing are you for Muslims. Allah's countless blessings be upon you. from Pakistan

The only person I listen to because he never scares us about Islam rather mentions everything so beautifully!

His recitation was beautiful too, gives me shivers and makes my heart sing when I hear it.

Alhamdulillah Cat is our prophet's favorite pet. ☝️❤️

Happy Ramadan To all of us 🙏🕌🕋☪️🌙

الإسلام دين التسامح والسلام والمحبة. اللهم اعز الاسلام والمسلمين في كل مكان♥️♥️♥️♥️

Allahumma barik such a humble imam.. may Allah reward him. Allah chose him to go viral in the whole world subhanAllah 🇩🇿🌹

Yes I watched the video over and over I have adopted cats myself May Allah SWT bless this Imaam

Peace be upon our beloved Muhammad Salalahu aleyhi wa salam 🥰❤️🥰❤️

We adored that image. So happy to hear from you on this Mufti Menk

In my masjid almost every day There is this cat that is soo nice and peaceful and she stays outside the door listening to the imam recite Marshallah

By the Will of Allah I was able to adopt a cat 7 year's ago when I was 17/18 years old, today I'm 25 and my cat i getting old and sick.. I'm not sur if I can ask this (correct me if I cant) but if you could make Dua for my cat so that Allah allows me to stay with him for a lot of more year's I would highly appriciated it, May Allah reward this Imam with the best of rewards in this life and in The Akhrirah and may Allah bless the whole Ummah in this month of Ramadan ! May Allah heal the sick and grant them great health and wealth

The concentration of the imam is the object here vats hzve vary vary vary sharp nails that can penetrate flesh that causes instant pain especially one that is using his claws to climb as it digs in to support its weight and climb anybody that owns cats knows exactly what I am talking about ... IMAN , sincerity , commitment .... Ameen

*I adopted 2 kittens from street , Alhamdulillah..They are so cute*

That's why I have 2 beautiful Cats 🐈 😻 I loved that video clip ♥️ Masha Allah ❤️

I had 06 kittens (rescued stray kitties) but unfortunately one didn’t survived with all the medications and treatment. But rest of 05 are now part of my family Alhumdolillah 🧿❤️ and turned 1 year last month ❤ Ma’sha’Allah 🧿❤️

Masha Allah ❤❤❤

Daily Dhikr Reminder 💚🌹😂 1. SubhanAllah 2. Alhamdulillah 3. La illaha il Allah 4. Allahu Akbar

From Algeria we are proud of all our imams whether they are from Algeria, morocco, Saudi aribia or even non arabic countries because at the end what keeps us together is Islam. alhamdullilah ❤️🇩🇿 {وَلِلَّهِ الْعِزَّةُ وَلِرَسُولِهِ وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَلَٰكِنَّ الْمُنَافِقِينَ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ​}. There's nothing wrong to be proud of your people and praise them when they do good deed. May allah guides all to the right path 🤲

I'm an Algerian citizen and from the bottom of my heart i wanna say أحبك في الله يا شيخ جزاك الله الخير كله 🤲🏽♥️

Watching this video, one has the distinct feeling that even the cat, in its own way, offers its own praise to God by participating in prayer. May God bless the Algerian imam in the video always and everywhere! Many thanks for your preaching, Mufti Menk! May God bless also you and your loved ones always and everywhere! 🧙💞🌹☀🌈

الإمام الجزائري وليد مهساس ماشاء الله عليه والقارئ الجزائري عبد العزيز من أجمل الأصوات في العالم من حيث جمال صوتهم في وجودتهم تلاوة القرآن الكريم كلام الله العظيم الجميل ماشاء الله عليهم

Subhan Allah, the imam handled the situation so well!

what's actually really surprising too is that cats hate loud noises and that imam was reciting loudly into a microphone where the volume was x10 and the cat rather enjoyed it SubhanAllah

Mach'Allah it's our imam from my country Algeria 🇩🇿 ❤ (bordj district) may allah grant us with good deeds

It's a very good message for everyone my employer doesn't like cats because they're afraid when I go out to throw garbage, I see a lot of cats outside. So every time I go out I bring food for them because they also have life, they also feel hungry when there is nothing to eat

The people I trusted the most betrayed me, while the stray sick cats 🐈 🐈‍⬛️ I have and I feed them, they are so kind to me, they always wait for me. I can see in their eyes that they're clearly saying "THANK YOU" to me for being there for them. ❤

May ALLAH(ﷻ) grant us the ability to follow the beloved ways of our beloved Prophet Muhammad Mustafa (ﷺ) , Ameen 🤲🌹❤🕋........................

I love cats and currently, she’s fighting for her dear life!!! Please pray for Zena🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

Love from London ❤ have a great Ramadan

Allah SWT bless the imam who was not distracted by the cat.. Kindness towards animals (cats) surely leads us to the right path...

MashaAllah. I have 20+ cats and kittens. They also climb into me while performing Salah

سبحان اللہ العظیم وبحمدہ سبحان اللہ العظیم ❤

Respect to you for your kindness to my favorite creatures....cats ! Peace from Las Vegas .

I was totally moved to have seen such a beautiful sight. May Allah bless the Imam with goodness and peace.

My cat always responds to the call for prayer. No matter where she is she gets up and comes over to it.

قال رسولُ الله ﷺ: مَن رأى مُبتلًى فقال: الحمد لله الذي عافاني مما ابتلاك به، وفضَّلني على كثيرٍ ممن خلق تفضيلًا؛ لم يُصبه ذلك البلاء

Thank you for your words of wisdom. ❤

Animals have a sixth sense that we humans lack. They can sense things that we can’t and they act accordingly. This cat’s affection for this man shows what a kind soul he is. He is truly blessed. 🙏

Mashallah lets all be nice ❤

Ma Shaa ALLAH. From Uzbekistan 🇺🇿☪️

I knew that this video will go viral xD ❤ LOVE ALGERIA 🇩🇿

Ma sha' Allah my mother (who is a non-Muslim) showed me that video. Allahu Akbar!

This must be on of my favorite messages from you, Mufti Menk. Thank you for sharing this great word.

Mufti Menk.......I love to watch your videos..........you are an amazing speaker..........every sentence you say is worth listening.......May Allah grant you goodness.......Ameen

What a beautiful video❤❤❤I saw it😊I watched many times Masha Allah ❤❤

Ibn al-Jawzi رحمه الله said: “When the race horse 🏇 knows that it is nearing the end of the track it exerts all of its effort to win the race.” 🏁 “Do not allow the race horse to be more clever than you.” 💡 “For verily, deeds are judged by their conclusions.” 🏆 “So if you didn’t do well with welcoming Ramadan then perhaps you will do better bidding it farewell.” 🎯

I adore Allah so much 🤲🏼

Walaikum AssalaM WarahmatullaHi Wabarakatuhu Mufti Ismail Menk May ALLAH SUBHANA O TAALA Bless you in this Dunya and Akhirah❤

Walaikum us salam wa rahmatullah e wabarakatau stay blessed with loads of happiness ameen

Ameen. Beautiful Manners from the Imaam.

Yes wallah he did amazing job 🥰🙏🏻Mashallah Thank you for this great message 💗

Everyone paid attention with the cat, but few listened to the verses that the imam read and understood their meaning... A few verses that are valid for every time and place are addressed to the world and the ignorant to the believer in God and the unbeliever, as if God wanted through this cat and this sweet voice of this imam to alert people again to the need to reflect and understand the significance of these The short life... And listen to the last verse he recited (If he wished, he would have guided you all).. A verse that shows the kind of test we are in. One verse shows you, O human being, that you are still and will continue to be in conflict with yourself. Should you repent or postpone while you know that the second may mean perishment. One verse is sufficient for all human beings, in which the Creator describes His greatness.

I have also a ❤CAT. I love👍😊😊😊 this Imam saheb because he is kind❤ hearted. May 🤲🤲Allah give him 🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲🤲good place

Subhaanallah! Alhamdhulillah!! The compassion of the Imam with complete composure and focus is commendable! May Allah reward him with the very best of Jannah! Aameen! 🤲🤍😻

Beautiful lecture Selam to all Muslims sisters and brothers

1. It was narrated that Abu Umaamah radiyallahu anhu said: “The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Whoever recites Ayatul Kursi immediately after each prescribed prayer, there will be nothing standing between him and his entering Paradise except death." 2. Abu Hurairah radiyallahu anhu reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: He who says, "Subhan-Allahi wa bihamdihi' (Glory and praise be to Allah) one hundred times a day, his sins will be obliterated even if they are equal to the extent of the foam of the sea. (Al-Bukhari and Muslim) 3. Abu Hurairah narrated that the Prophet said:“There are two statements that are light on the tongue, heavy on the scales, and beloved to the Most Merciful: Subhanallahi wa bihamdihi, Subhanallahil Azeem (Glory and praise be to Allah, Glorified is Allah, the Most Great.)” (Al-Bukhari) 4. Abu Hurairah reported that the Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said: He who repeats after every prayer: Subhan Allah (Glory be to Allah) thirty-three times, Al-hamdu lillah (praise be to Allah) thirty-three times, Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest) thirty-three times; and completes the hundred with: La ilaha illallahu, wahdahu la sharika lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-hamdu, wa Huwa ‘ala kulli shai'in qadir (There is no true god except Allah. He is One and He has no partner. His is the sovereignty and His is the praise, and He is Omnipotent) Will have all his sins pardoned even if they may be as large as the foam on the surface of the sea." (Muslim) 5. Zaid ibn Harithah narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whosoever says: 'Astaghfirullaha al-'Azeem al-ladhi la ilaha illa Huwal-Hayyul-Qayyum wa atubu illayh (I ask forgiveness of Allah, the Magnificent, than Whom there is no deity, the Living, the Sustainer of existence, and I turn to Him in repentance,) his sins will be forgiven even if he should have run away from the battlefield (while he was engaged in fighting for the Cause of Allah, which is a grave sin in Islam). (Abu Dawud and authenticated by Al-Albani) 6. The Prophet peace be upon him said "Whosoever recites Durood Sharief on me 10 times in the morning and evening, I will intercede for him on the day of Qiyamah." (TIBRANI) 7.Whoever reads Surah Ikhlas ten times, Allah will build a palace for him in Paradise. 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) exclaimed, "If that's the case, then we will increase in our palaces!" The Prophet ? (may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) responded, "Allah is better and greater (in reward)." [Ahmad] 8. Whoever reads Surat al-Kahf on Friday, it wil act as a light/protection for him from one Friday to the next. (Bayhaqi) 9. Whoever performs their ablution carefully and then affirms (their faith by testifying): "Ash-hadu Al-laa ilaha Ill-lallahu wahdahu laa shareeka lahu wa ashadhu anna Muhammadan 'abduhu wa rasuluhu; Allahumma-ja'Ini min at-tawaabeena waj-a'Ini minal-mutatahireen": 1 testify that there is no true deity except Allah Alone, Who has no partners, and that Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam is His slave and Messenger; O Allah, make me from those who repent and purify themselves' - the eight gates of Jannah are opened for him so he may enter through whichever of these gates he desires.[Tirmidhi] 10. Whoever says: "Radheetu billahi Rabba, wa bil Islaami Deena, wa bi Muhammadin sall-Allahu 'alayhi wa sallama Nabiyyan" - I am pleased with Allah as my Lord, and with Islam as my Religion, and with Muhammad as my Prophet, Paradise would be (made) mandatory for him. [Abu Dawud] 11. Whoever asks Allah for Paradise three times (Allahumma inni as'aluk al-Jannah), then Paradise will say: "0 Allah! Enter him into Paradise!" And whoever seeks protection with Allah (Allahumma ajirni min an-Nar), the Fire will say: "O Allah! Protect him from the Fire!" [TIRMIDHI] 12.Whoever is easy-going, gentle and kind, Allah will make the fire forbidden for him. [Hakim] 13. In Paradise there are rooms whose outside can be seen from the inside and the inside can be seen from the outside. Allah has prepared them for those who feed the poor, who are gentle in speech, who fast regularly and who pray at night when (other) people are asleep. [Ahmad] 14. Narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: "There is a soorah of the Qur'an, with thirty verses, that interceded for a man until he was forgiven; it is 'Soorah Tabaarak Alladhi bi yadihi'l-mulk (Blessed is He in Whose Hand is the dominion) Read Surah Al-Mulk 67:1 Reference :Sunan Abi Dawud 1400 If you pass this on, It is Sadaqatul Jaria. (meaning you keep on getting rewarded for it, every time someone acts upon it even when you have died, until the day of judgement).

I have 11 cats❤️🐱😊 yes it can be difficult to give each and every cats an equal love, they also can give you bad allergies but if they are cute and relax, then is alright haha. But buy some toys or a play house if you are unable to play with them all the time, at least they are having fun with the others😊

Thank you for the UAs!
