Hello everyone I will on add a new section to this article: Animals in Islamic Art. It is pretty much self explanatory and deals a lot with the visual depiction of lions, gazelles, and deer on a variety of Islamic artistic mediums. I venture off here and there in regards to mentioning birds and briefly an elephant. But over all it is brief and will have a lot of room for more improvement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by James Flavio Ortiz (talk • contribs) 17:40, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Snuish2: You placed Improve the lead on the article.I think the issue could be solved by removing some extra material of the lead. In my opinion they are not suitable for lead: Stunning cannot be used to kill an animal, according to the Halal Food Authority (HFA), a non-profit organisation that monitors adherence to halal principles. But it can be used if the animal survives and is then killed by halal methods, the HFA adds," reports the BBC.[7] Prohibitions include swine, carrion,[8] and animals involved in dhabihah (ritual slaughter) in the name of someone other than God.[6] The Quran also states "eat of that over which the name of Allah, hath been mentioned."[9]. Do you agree?Homiho (talk) 06:03, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think that removing the quoted material would certainly be an improvement. Snuish (talk) 23:04, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Some of the things talked about seem to be from a quranist perspective, e. g. that “the majority of islamic scholars” attribute the ban on keeping dogs in one's own home to “pre-islamic arabic mythology”. In the same paragraph, the author also implies that hadith are not a legitimate source. It's objectively incorrect to state that most scholars reject the ban on dogs in homes, as most islamic scholars belong to schools of thought which accept hadith about the dog ban.

Under the current redaction, breeding and killing animals for their leather or silk would be a sin. Is it so or is the article incomplete? -- Error (talk) 01:35, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

on islamweb.net I read that the majority of scholars agree that you are *obliged* to kill a pig if you come across it. Is there any truth to a large group of scholars believing this? If so I think that this quote should be removed or elaborated on. Henrikfr123 (talk) 16:49, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
