A.) To keep a snake as a pet is not permissible. Rasulullah (P.B.U.H) has commanded the killing of snakes. (Hadith of Bukhari and Muslim). Mirqat Vol. 7 Pg: 712 [Maktaba Haqqaaniyya] Rasulullah (P.B.U.H) has also discouraged keeping dogs as pets (Mirqaat Vol. 7 Pg. 697) To keep harmful animals or animals deemed impure in the Shariah eg. pigs , as pets would not be permissible. Other animals such as cats, sheep, goats, birds, fish etc. are permissible to keep as pets. And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.

Please note that the command to kill snake is not due to any prejudice against snakes. The logical reason to kill a snake or any harmful creature as such is that it may harm you or someone in your home, neighbourhood, town/city. Apart from that, all the creatures are creation of God, and should not be harmed unnessarily. We are forbidden from plunder. There are several narations of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) advising to be kind to animals.

Muslims are allowed to keep cats as pets. In fact, one of the companions of Prophet Muhammad, God bless him and grant him peace, was famous for keeping many cats. However, Muslims have to take good care of cats and other animals for whom they are responsible.

True but p.b.u.h just looked after a cat cuz she was pregnant!

Answer AIslam religion neither forbids nor requires a Muslim to have a snake pet. Accordingly, it depends on you preference and tendency. Answer BIslam allows to have a pet but according to the holy book [quran] it says we can not have a dog or puppy.

Answer c

a dog is alloud, but not in the house, if its just for security then its fine, if you touch it you cannot pray, unless if you wash your hands. If a dog goes inside a prayer room you cannot pray there, because its no longer clean.
