Q: In India there is rodent which is like a rat. In Gujrati they call it cher. It walks on the sides of the room. I heard you shouldn't kill it because it brings blessings in the house. Is this true?
A: This is superstition. Superstition has no basis in Islam.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
