Generally, kissing a cat in Islam is considered mubah (permissible) as long as there is no sexual intent involved. If the act is accompanied by or leads to sexual arousal or desire, then it becomes haram (forbidden).
Here's a breakdown:
-
Mubah (Permissible): In the absence of any sexual intention or potential for harm (to oneself or the cat), kissing a cat falls under the category of permissible actions. This is because there is no specific prohibition against it in the Quran or Sunnah.
-
Haram (Forbidden): If kissing a cat leads to sexual arousal or is done with sexual intent, then it is considered haram. Islam places a strong emphasis on avoiding actions that could lead to sinful behavior.
In summary: Whether kissing a cat is permissible depends entirely on the intention and potential consequences. As long as the act is not driven by sexual desire or a risk of harm, it is generally considered permissible.
