In Islamic civilization, which is based on the principles introduced to humanity by the Messenger of Mercy, animals are treated with compassion and mercy. Their right to live and shelter in appropriate environments is respected. However, while protecting the rights of animals, the human being, who is a perfect being, should not be harmed.
Animals that threaten human life should not be left unattended on the streets. It is our collective responsibility to take the necessary precautions to safeguard our people, especially our children, from animals at risk of carrying a disease or are violent.
Today, when violence, anger, animosity and hatred invade the hearts, what falls upon us as members of the civilization of mercy is to once again embrace the messages of the Prophet of Mercy (saw).
We should train our hearts in the Messenger of Allah's (saw) school of knowledge and wisdom, who says, "I was only sent as mercy." [Muslim, Birr, 24]
Then, come on! Let us be conscientious and compassionate towards our spouses, children, parents, the elderly, the environment, and all living beings, leaving aside the lack of compassion that has become the greatest disease of our century.
"The merciful are shown mercy by al-Rahman. Be merciful to what is on earth, and you will be shown mercy from Who is above the heavens." [Abu Dawud, Adab, 58]
