From today's Times:

KORAN HUNT PLEA

A Muslim who hunted hares for the pot is to testify in the High Court that his human rights have been breached by the ban on hunting with dogs because the Koran permits it. Ahmed Khan, from Lancashire, was one of 11 witnesses named by lawyers for the Countryside Alliance in its case to overturn the ban.

Whether you support or are against hunting with dogs I would suggest that the above mentioned Mr. Khan and The Countryside Alliance are being less than truthful. How many Muslims do you know who keep dogs? I have asked Muslim friends who tell me the reason they don't keep dogs is the fear of rabies. One friend told me if you had ever seen anyone die of this disease you would understand. Mr Khan obviously hasn't.
