Q: I wanted to know more about keeping dogs as pets in regards to Islam. Some scholars say that it's okay to keep dogs in the house, while others think of it as impure and haraam.

For example, if a room is reserved for prayer and the dog is prevented from going in it, does it still mean that keeping the dog in the house is not allowed? I want to emphasise that this question is about having a pet rather than a hunting dog or a guard dog.

Q: Yesterday I found a piece of toilet paper with stool on the shower floor, my concern is that my family had showered in there and while I am not certain if they specifically stepped on the toilet paper, since the entire floor within the shower is wet, I would like to know if this makes the whole shower floor napaak thereby making their feet (as they are barefoot in the shower) and all the surfaces their feet touched napaak as well.
