Is it permissible to establish a farm for raising guard dogs for the purpose of trading them?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
We have previously mentioned that the preponderant opinion is the permissibility of selling a dog that is authorized for possession, and that its price is lawful.
Based on this, there is no harm in raising dogs and trading them, as long as they are only used for the authorized purpose, which is hunting, livestock, and guarding.
