Why did this video win so many hearts? Because it captures the beauty of Islam
Omer Alvie shared the video on LinkedIn and many comments pointed out how Islam encourages the bond with animals, specifically cats like Abu Hurairah and of course Prophet Muhammed (PBUH).
What was also admired is that he continued reciting from memory, without getting distracted by the cat. It has been said that the Prophet Muhammed (PHUH) would have his grandchildren play around him while he prayed. He would even carry them.
While maintaining concentration prayer is important, simple distractions like these are not bad. Quite the contrary. And that’s why this video was loved by many.
