“Some interpreters of the Quran said, ‘There are 10 kinds of animals which will enter Paradise which are as follows:

1- The Buraaq (an animal with wings, that is bigger than a donkey and smaller than a mule) which the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) rode on the night of Al-Israa’ (Ascension).

2- The she-camel of Saalih may Allaah exalt his mention which was hamstrung by those who denied the truth.

3- The donkey of ‘Uzayr whom Allaah The Almighty caused to die for one hundred years and then Allaah The Almighty revived him and he found his donkey next to him as it was.

4- The calf, which the Prophet Ibraaheem (Abraham), may, Allaah exalt his mention, slaughtered for his angel guests.

5- The ram with which Allaah The Almighty ransomed Ismaa’eel (Ishmael) may Allaah exalt his mention from being slaughtered according to the vision seen by Prophet Ibraaheem may Allaah exalt his mention.

6- The hoopoe that brought news for the Prophet Sulaymaan, (Solomon) may Allaah exalt his mention about Bilqees (the Queen of Sheba).

7- The ant which said [as related in the Quran] (what means): {“O ants, enter your dwellings that you not be crushed by Solomon and his soldiers while they perceive not.”} [Quran 27:18]

8- The dog of the people of the Cave.

9- The fish that swallowed the Prophet Yoonus (Jonah) may Allaah exalt his mention.

10- The cow of the Children of Israa'eel that pointed to the killer when the slain man was hit with some of its parts.”

Besides, Al-Aloosi may Allaah have mercy upon him when interpreting the verse of Allaah The Almighty (which means): {…while their dog stretched his forelegs at the entrance.} [Quran 18:18], quoted that all the good animals in this world, like antelopes, peacocks and the animals from which a believer benefits, like sheep and goats, will enter Paradise in a suitable shape but there is no narration [Hadeeth] to be relied upon in this regard.”
