I thought in islam all dogs are untouchables. Should we report that to BBC. I think all pigs and dogs are going to protest now. My poor muslim friends used to run for cover when neighbour brings out their dogs.

The issue here is NOT The dog but the touching by a low cast Hindu Dalit woman of the dog of a upper cast Hindu brahmin.

It needs social training for changing behaviour on ground to deal with such issues. Awareness is the key

Its been a long time rather too long to have such issues still around

Its far older issue than of 100 years.

And very right Govt can provide money not respect. But then i see hardly any support for change from learned internet warriors here as well.

You have seen one such post already where someone was shying away by comparing

Dogs aren't untouchable... they are only unhygienic and can't be taken as pets due to germs- similar to the swine but to a lesser degree. During the Prophet Muhammad's time, a dog came and urinated in the mosque. The companions got angry and went to hit the dog, but the Prophet stopped them and said not to hurt the dog and to just clean up the mess it had left behind.

Your 'poor Muslim friends' would have been told otherwise... we have a lot of that in Pakistan and India. This isn't about dogs, this is about the caste system dude.

The term achut comes from ashudh which means unclean .
Anyway my friends used to say they have to bath in sand if they touch dog. My god it is difficult to get sand to bath in USA. U have to got to beach or kroger. You cant dig up in apt. That was the fun part of it. I did some search and here is what i think caused the confusion.
Abu Hurayrah reports that the Prophet [once] said: When a dog puts his mouth in some utensil wash it seven times and scrub it with mud the seventh time as well. (Abu Da‘wud: Kitab al-Taharah)

So basically dog is achut.
I understand it is about caste system. But just pointed out that when a religion that classifies entire world who dont believe in them as kafirs treating several of god creations as unclean, treating them with great respect by eliminating them doesn't have much right to blame others. If u take any religion there is caste system. Only difference is Islam does not have it built in and still most muslims (because they are humans ) practice it in one way or other. Human beings by nature has to classify. otherwise why do we have moderator caste and admin caste who can delete threads and posts in this board and people who cant. We have it right here . One way or other class establishes order.

Of course it is... it has more to do with the disgusting germs it carries it its mouth. It's not spiritually 'unclean', no, it's physically dirty. Same goes for pig.

Its much more than that. Its this thought process of wanting to be superior to other fellow human beings that the caste system is so ingrained in our psyche. That "high caste" complainant is a moron.

Anyway, I liked the Dog's attitude. He/She never saw the "caste" differences and happily accepted food from either households. Intelligent being indeed!

Brahmin???

Where did that come from? Your childhood training? Adding such bull is just the kind of journalism you do, and its shameful.

You googled her?

You know, what you just said was quite disrespectful, regardless of what anyone believes. You're a man and our neighbor. In Pakistan, we treat women with respect. Do the same to avoid further disgrace to your nation.
