Brief of the rights vested under Islam to the animals are as under:-

1. Love of Allah to All Creatures:-

The Prophet Muhammad said, “God’s kindness towards His creature is more than a mother’s towards her babe”. This saying of the Holy Prophet shows that there is no distinction in kindness of God, which is equal to all creatures whether it is human being, a beast, a pet or plant etc.

2. All Creatures are Family of God

The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said, “The creature is a God’s family; for its sustenance is from Him; therefore, the most beloved unto God is the person who do good to God’s family.

3. Fear God in treating dumb animals:

The Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said, “Fear God, in treating dumb animals and ride them when they are fit to be ridden and get off them when they are tired.”
