In a recent anonymous post on social media platform NGL, a concerned neighbour raises the alarm about an ustaz in their vicinity who is engaged in a senseless killing spree targeting neighbourhood dogs. The neighbour expresses distress over the ustazs habit of indiscriminately shooting dogs with a bow and arrow, inflicting pain and causing slow deaths.

1) kau panah balik ustaz tu
2) Contact your local authorities pasal anjing liar. Theyll handle it in a more humanely
3) orang cmtu jangan cakap elok2. Kkdg these people kill because they like it, bukan sebab self protection sngt pun pic.twitter.com/2k7YxGvZjd
The post describes how, without any apparent reason, the ustaz takes aim at passing dogs, sometimes missing his shot, while other times hitting them, leading to excruciating pain and a lingering, agonizing death. Some unfortunate dogs are struck in the head and killed instantly.
Ooooooo ada continuation. That ustaz just made a criminal offense pic.twitter.com/oba2wTFqcm

Expressing concern for the well-being of the community's dogs, the neighbour seeks advice on how to address this distressing situation with the ustaz. They also question if there is any religious license allowing the killing of dogs, particularly as many of the victims are owned by local farm owners and are targeted without provocation.
Before you come to me as terpaling animal rights- i recognise the dangers of wild dogs and rabies. Tapi i also recognise cara yg lebih elok nak handle benda2 cmni. What if ustaz tu missed and hit someone?

Panggil je DBKL or something. Let them do the work for you.
Suggested steps include contacting local authorities to report the ustaz's actions, as they may be better equipped to handle the situation in a humane manner. It is advised not to confront the ustaz directly, as individuals who engage in such acts often derive pleasure from them and are unlikely to respond to reasoning or compassion.
Semoga ustaz ni mati dipanah petir. Atau anak mereka kena kanser stage akhir lepas lahir. Ustaz macamni memang celaka. Jenis yang akan bunuh anjing stray tapi takkan neuter kucing dan biar kucing beranak pinak. Orang ustaz ni memang tak pernah tak bodoh. Pergi mampus.

Kalau betul dia ustaz, mustahil dia tak tahu memanah tu salah satu sunnah Nabi. Guna dekat tempat yg salah, tak rasa menghina sunnah ke?

Islam is against animal cruelty.

Seorang perempuan diazab disebabkan seekor kucing yang dia kurung hingga mati kelaparan. Maka wanita tersebut masuk ke dalam neraka disebabkannya. (Riwayat al-Bukhari)
Netizens have expressed their opinions and shared their concerns, emphasizing the karmic consequences that await the ustaz for causing harm to innocent animals without justification. Some question how an ustaz could engage in such behaviour, as it goes against religious teachings. Others suggest recording video evidence and filing a report with relevant authorities, emphasizing the importance of holding the individual accountable for their actions.
Some ppl rasa haiwan2 yg haram dipegang halal disakiti/dibunuh. Padahal diorang just unleash their inner evil to innocent animals

1. Please don't call him Ustaz, Ustaz tak menyeksa haiwan

2. Amik video, report kat pihak berwajib.
3. Kalau anda lelaki, ajak Ustaz Tu bertumbuk
4. Kalau anda tak sanggup bertumbuk, call saya.
Remember, animal cruelty is not only morally wrong but also illegal in many jurisdictions. Let us promote compassion and respect for all living creatures.
