Is it not amazing?
A Medical School of England plans to train dogs for detecting cancer in human beings. A display of dog�s ability was telecasted by one of America� prime Television Networks yesterday.
Dog�s smelling ability is two thousand times greater than man�s. Putting this knowledge to work, the school hired a dog trainer. After some training, a trained dog was made to confront some samples taken out of some people�s body.
One of the samples had cancer cells. The remaining samples were clean.
The dog sniffed at all the samples. He picked up the one that had the cancer cells. This test was repeated a number of times; each time the dog did the same thing; he picked up the lone sample that had cancer cells in it.
It was reported that in course of a training session, the dog surprised all researchers. To test the dog�s intelligence, they had presented him with ten samples. To their knowledge, all the samples were cancer-free.
As all the samples were clean, the dog was not supposed to do anything. But instead of remaining inactive, he picked up one, which, according to the dog�s training manual, had cancer infection in it. Surprised, the researchers repeated the test a number of times; each time, the dog drew their attention to the same sample.
Perplexed, the researchers took the sample, which the dog had picked up, back to their lab. What the laboratory had missed before was corrected by the dog; the sample was, indeed, cancer-cell infested.
Following the English School�s lead, many European countries and the United States of America have already begun training dogs for detecting cancer in human beings. They are hoping that with the canine�s help, many cancer patients would be able to receive treatment before their disease becomes severe and uncontrollable.
Unfortunately, Muslims would not be able to use dogs for detecting their cancerous ailments. As dogs are �najis� or impure, they cannot let them sniff at their bodies. And unless dogs are given the opportunity to sniff at their subjects, it would not be possible for them to point out whether they suffered from cancer or not.
But never mind! Since all Muslims must prefer the bliss of heaven to what they are likely to gain in this world by being sniffed at by the najis dogs, they would not press them into their service. This would allow the dogs more time to concentrate adequately on infidels and unbelievers, thus helping them prolong their life on this earth.
Who would be the gainers from rejecting the dog�s help?
The Muslims. The sooner they die, the better it would be for them. For, nobody has ever testified that a person was capable of committing a sin after his or her death!
