Volume 1, Book 9, Number 490 :
Narrated by 'Aisha
The things which annul the prayers were mentioned before me. They said, "Prayer is annulled by a dog, a donkey and a woman (if they pass in front of the praying people)." I said, "You have made us (i.e. women) dogs. I saw the Prophet praying while I used to lie in my bed between him and the Qibla. Whenever I was in need of something, I would slip away. for I disliked to face him."


Of course, when 83% of American Muslims have never heard of Sahih Bukhari, and don't know what a hadith is, canonical authority is no authority.

But if two of your pals from work say it's fine....who else's opinion matters, eh? There's no such thing as radical or moderate Islam. But there certainly are
observant or apostated Muslims.

Refute him if you can. Muslims are subject to Islam's canon, which is the Qur'an and the Sunna. The Sunna includes the Sahih hadith, which is where that's from.

Unfortunately, if your uninformed opinion conflicts with the Sunna your opinion is worthless. One can apostasize and believe as Kaffir do, but that doesn't change what Islam's canon says.

There were Muslims that used to scream on the top of their lungs when they saw my dog, I am not exaggerating.

So I think that most practicing Muslims are totally against dogs for the sole purpose of being unclean.

I'm a Muslim with a dog, no Muslim that I know would scream at a dog, a lot love dogs, a lot are indifferent, some don't like dogs. These people in your building sound like immigrants - perhaps like the African and Asian immigrants in my building who are scared of my dog, some who scream, some who exaggeradetly avoid him.
It's a cultural/immigrant thing and the fact that in a lot of other countries pets aren't common like in the West, and their only interaction with dogs has been the street dogs who can be dirty and aggressive, so that paints a negative picture of dogs.

No, more like fictional characters
