The Islamic tradition has much to say on different animals. Perhaps most strikingly, the hadith provide the remarkable story of the buraq, a flying creature which took Muhammad on a tour of the [[al-masjid al-aqsa]] as well as the [[jannah|heavens]]. Outside of the [[buraq]], the presents [[Muhammad]] and the [[sahabah]] as having strong opinions on different animals. Above all the tradition shows a great antipathy towards dogs, who will keep angels from entering the house of those who possess them. Their killing is condoned, along with some other "troublesome" reptiles such as salamanders, geckos and snakes. In addition, only some animals may be killed and eaten by the believers, including cows, goats, and sheep. | |||
