Another reason to ban dogs, is that dogs can act as a form of defense for the infidel, when under Shariah law, only Muslims could own weapons.
Only Muslims could have the means to attack or defend from attack, so fear of assault could lead non-Muslims to convert. A big trained dog, however, lessens the fear and drive to convert.
LOL!
Good list of books. Thank you.

Um, hope for the best; but be fully, absolutely prepared for the worst.
Animals are amazing that way. One of my cats used to growl at the old lady drunk in our apartment building. Another one of my cats (who customarily ran from strangers arriving in our home) on separate occasions recognized my grown son who lives at a distance and my distant cousins when they came to visit, and jumped right onto their laps.
There were blacks who fought for the South in the Civil War, as well; but one of the basic organizing principles of physical matter is that most entities attempt to stick with their own kind. Same with human beings. It's fine to make a personal exception in specific circumstances, but to generalize from one's exceptional experiences is dangerous. To quote Ronald Reagan, "Trust, but verify."
Most excellent article at your link. Thank you for posting.
Mechanical or Electrical P.E. ?
Nuclear by trade and training and registration.
But my boss pays me to do a little bit of mechanical, piping, structural, QA, electrical, welding/metallurgy/machining/manufacturing/safety as a field engineer in the real world. (Power plant (nuke, gas turbine, generators, steam, and fossil outages, and submarine construction, repair, overhaul and planning.)
Bingo
It’s possible that there are “cultural Muslims” who only go along to not be ostracized by their neighbors, but they don’t believe in that crap.
I have three dogs, one of which is a black lab. My husband does taxes, and a few of his clients are Muslim. They won’t come into the house unless we put the dogs outside. BTW, our dogs are not vicious. The worst they will do is lick you to death.
Please don't tell us you put the dogs outside.
These are my husband’s paying clients. We do the same if someone comes over with children who may be afraid of the dogs.
The Nazis would never know where I lived.
