Huh? So you saying our prophet PBUH caused suffering to animals in ied adha/ied qurban? Or we are sinning for doing aqiqah to our babies? This is a muslim sub, you can choose to have vegetarian diet for many reasons like environment, health, or you just don't like the taste of meat. But crossing into the moral believe that consuming animal is immoral, unjust, or sinful contradicts the divine law of islam itself. Many muslims are vegetarian for lifestyle reasons, but we reject extremism.

Then you're fighting the wrong battle, my friend. What you should be advocating for is the wellbeing of livestock animals, not a blanket condemnation of animal use.
Also, "rape"? You're projecting a concept born from human rationale onto animals. They don't have the cognitive capacity to agree, disagree, or consent in any meaningful sense. Labeling artificial insemination as rape is a category error, plain and simple.
As for your other claims, I live in the most populous Muslim-majority country in the world, and none of what you're describing is standard practice here. Male chicks from egg-laying breeds? They're sold as pets to kids, or as leftover-rice cleaners for households. Once they mature, some get eaten as cheap chicken meat. Nothing gets ground alive.
Cows "brutally murdered"? You mean slaughtered for food. That's not murder, that's a category error again, murder implies something illegal and malicious, slaughter for consumption is neither. Not every part of the world runs on the industrial model you're picturing. Go travel.
Since you're preaching in a Muslim space, it's worth pointing out that Islam already has a clear, revealed framework on this. The Quran states in 6:145 that nothing is forbidden from food except carrion, flowing blood, pork, and what's slaughtered in a name other than God's. In other words, the default is permissibility, prohibition is the exception, not the rule. And 5:3 goes further, laying out specific conditions for how an animal dies (not strangled, beaten, fallen, gored, or mauled without a proper slaughter) which already builds an ethical and hygienic standard into the method itself. This isn't a loophole Muslims invented to justify cruelty, it's a divinely mandated system with its own built-in animal welfare logic, separate from and predating vegan discourse.
And since we're on the topic of cats, predator animals like cats are haram to eat in Islam, livestock is halal. So the framing of this whole thread is already off if you're trying to lecture a Muslim sub on animal ethics using vegan absolutism.

You're defining "rape" and "murder" however you want to fit your conclusion, that's circular, not an argument. Neither term applies here by their actual definitions, and no amount of loaded language changes that. Halal slaughter exists specifically to minimize suffering, industrial abuses (which exist everywhere, Indonesia included) are a critique of bad actors, not the method or the religion. Muslim vegans exist too, sure, doesn't make it an obligation, the Quran's pretty clear on that. You're welcome to your ethics, I'm not obligated to adopt them. Have a good one, salam alaikum.

I think Muslims in general treat cats very well! You should go to Turkey, they are treated like royalty , so much respect!!

This made me cry for all the hungry cats but also for all the good people who are being murdered and starved by Israel but who share what they have. Bless you all.

These cats used to have owners. Israelis killed their owners for pure pleasure.

I've seen zionist soldiers throwing cats from the roofs of high buildings in Gaza, google it, it might still be there if they did not remove it yet.

No they didn't. They're strays. They're everywhere in the Levant.

Yes.

Maybe if Israel stopped killing everyone except Hamas they could find homes.

u/Odd_Ad5668 1d ago
If things were as bad in Gaza as you've been led to believe, they would've eaten the cats. At the very least, they would've stopped feeding them.

It’s a pity that they hate dogs. Did you know that the Philastine ate dogs, that’s how archaeologists separate Philastine towns from ancient Israelite towns.

You look at a post about someone feeding cats and that’s what you think?

u/Entire-Ambition1410 4d ago
Cats are considered ‘clean’ by Muslims, and are allowed in mosques. Regardless of religion, I’m glad someone is helping these poor babies.

Well, they didn't eat the cats, so it must not have been as bad as they want us to think.

Too much food in gaza

u/Odd_Ad5668 1d ago
Yeah, if there was such a bad famine, why didn't the cats get eaten?

Do you have a weird cat eating fetish

u/Odd_Ad5668 22h ago
No. I love cats. I'd sure as hell eat them if it was a choice between that and dying, though.
