I just read that butchers in some parts of Pakistan are resorting to immoral acts once again by selling dog and donkey meat in various areas.
In Okara district, a police raid that was actually set to look for stray dogs at night that bit a few residents, the officers ended up discovering two brothers who used to capture dogs at night and then slaughtered them. In the morning, they sold the meat to local burger shops. The brothers were arrested and the raiding team checked a few kebab shops with a vet who declared that the meat was indeed dog meat.
Another team of officials arrested another butcher who was selling donkey meat. This meat is sold as lamb by hotels. “Sheikh Basti Okara has become the leading market for the sale of dead animal meat or that of animals that are not fit for consumption,” a doctor at the THQ hospital, Tanveer Athar said.
This is not shocking but sad. This is happening mostly because of the floods as most animals are either dead or those that have survived are not fit to be butchered. This is immoral and wrong since Muslims can't eat dog meat. And absolutely inhumane acts towards animals. I know that this post was written because the meat is not right for Muslims to use, which is true, but at the same time we, who are instructed in our religion to be kind to animals and all living creatures are so indifferent to the pain and suffering of these animals. It is not just these butchers who are wrong but even those officials in various parts of our country who often blindly kill innocent dogs calling them mad dogs and a threat to humans.
