Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him) was fond of cats, particularly his cat Muezza. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was so attached to him he’d let the cat sit on his lap while he gave his sermons. He’d even drink water that Muezza had previously been lapping up.
There are several well-known tales about Muezza. One says that the cat saved Prophet Muhammad from the deadly bite of a venomous snake. Another relates a time when Muezza was asleep on Prophet Muhammad’s robe when the call to prayers sounded. Although most people would have shooed away the cat, Prophet Muhammad instead cut off the sleeve of his robe so Muezza could rest in peace.
Islam instructs Muslims to revere cats. In fact, mistreating a cat is considered a significant transgression.
