Do animals enter Heaven or Hell? And do animals sense life?

In summary: Animals do not enter Paradise or Hell. Rather, they will be resurrected on the Day of Judgment for retribution, then they will be told, "Be dust." Their perception of life and death is evident. To overcome sadness, it is recommended to frequently remember Allah, perform His obligatory acts, and draw closer to Him. Among the prophetic supplications is: "O Allah, I seek refuge in You from anxiety and grief..." A Muslim should not grieve over trivial matters such as the death of animals.
