Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever recited the Qur'ān, studied if, and acted according to what it contains; on the Day of Judgment his parents will be dressed with a crown of light, it's brightness is like that of the sun, and his parents will be adorned with two bracelets, of which the whole world is not equivalent to them."
So they will ask: "Why are we being adorned with these?"
It will be said: "This is because of your child reciting, teaching and acting upon the Qur'ān."

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said,
"When (Allah's) slave is put in his grave and his companions return and he even hears their footsteps, two angels come to him and make him sit and ask, 'What did you use to say about this man (i.e. Muhammad)?' The faithful Believer will say, 'I testify that he is Allah's slave and His Apostle.' Then they will say to him, 'Look at your place in the Hell Fire; Allah has given you a place in Paradise instead of it.' So he will see both his places." (Qatada said, "We were informed that his grave would be made spacious." Then Qatada went back to the narration of Anas who said;) Whereas a hypocrite or a non-believer will be asked, "What did you use to say about this man." He will reply, "I do not know; but I used to say what the people used to say." So they will say to him, "Neither did you know nor did you take the guidance (by reciting the Qur'an)." Then he will be hit with iron hammers once, that he will send such a cry as everything near to him will hear, except Jinns and human beings.

It was narrated that ‘Abdullāh Ibn ‘Umar رضي الله عنهما said: The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Whoever keeps a dog, except a dog for herding livestock or a dog that is trained for hunting, two Qirāt will be deducted from his reward each day.”
● [رواه البخاري ومسلم]
As for what is a Qirāt, the Prophet ﷺ said: “Like two great mountains.” i.e keeping a dog without necessity will make its owner lose two Qirāt (four mountains) of reward each day, and Allāh’s Aid is sought.
Imām an-Nawawī رحمه الله said: “There is a difference of opinion as to whether it is permissible to keep dogs for purposes other than these three, such as for guarding houses and roads. The most correct view is that it is permissible, by analogy with these three and based on the reason that is to be understood from the hadeeth, which is necessity.”
● [شرح مسلم ١٠\٢٣٦]
Sh. Ibn al-‘Uthaymīn رحمه الله said: “Based on this, if a house is in the middle of the city there is no need to keep a dog to guard it, so keeping a dog for this purpose in such situations is haraam and is not permitted, and it detracts one or two Qirāt from a person’s reward every day. They should get rid of this dog and not keep it. But if the house is in the countryside and there is no one else around, then it is permissible to keep a dog to guard the house and the people who are in it; guarding the members of the household is more important than guarding livestock or crops.”
● [مجموع الفتاوى لإبن العثيمين ٤\٢٤٦]
As for the saliva of dog being Nājis (impure) Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله said there are several opinions:
• Dog is pure including its saliva = Opinion of Imām Mālik
• Dog is impure including its hair = Opinion of Imām ash-Shāfi'ī
• Dog’s hair is pure but saliva is impure = Opinion of Imām Abū Ḥanīfah and Imām Aḥmad
● [مجموع الفتاوى ٢١\٥٣٠]
Sh. Ibn al-‘Uthaymīn رحمه الله also said: “With regard to touching this dog, if there is no wetness then it does not make the hand Nājis (impure), but if he touches it and there is any wetness, then this means that the hand becomes Nājis according to the view of many scholars, and the hand must be washed after that seven times, one of which should be with soil (6 times with water and once with soil).”
● [مجموع الفتاوى لإبن باز ٢١\٢١٧]
However the dog’s saliva does not nullify Wuḍū, Ibn Qudāmah mentioned in al-Mughnī all the things that breaks the Wuḍū, none of them mentions touching dog or dog’s saliva,
