Why Islam Ties Your Faith to How You Treat a Dog
We treat the environment like a side issue. This talk says it is the heart of your relationship with Allah. Every atom, every bird, every heartbeat is created, sustained, and owned by Him. How you treat the smallest creature is how you answer to the One who made it.
