One of the most interesting verses in the Quran is this verse:
Animals are communities like us as the Quran states. Scientific studies proved that ant colonies and honey bees act in a very organized way similar to humans; or even more organized.
I believe that cats, dogs and whatever other animal out there is a member of such community; so can they understand us? what if animals have consciousness but they don't understand us, just like we don't understand them?
Still across time, humans learned how to raise cats,dogs, horses and other animals to understand some of what they are saying by developing communication techniques between both parties.
Maybe that's why the Quran prohibited eating pigs? Maybe pigs have a higher level of consciousness; it is proved too that they are similar to man anatomy wise. Slaughtering such animals might be a crime just like slaughtering dolphins or cats.
I believe that animals are communities like us; just like the Quran said
Quote:Sura 6, The Quran:
Sahih International
(38) And there is no creature on [or within] the earth or bird that flies with its wings except [that they are] communities like you. We have not neglected in the Register a thing. Then unto their Lord they will be gathered.
