Re: Is fishing haram

Peace All,

@sweetequation

no what i mean to say is that i have heard something about size of fish if it is larger than usual then we cannot eat, something like that but i dont exactly know if there is some hadith regarding it. In Karachi there was a fish food restaurant at first it got very famous but then people started telling not to eat from it cause they use big fish and we are not allowed to eat big fish

According to the differnent schools of thoughts:

**Hanbaliy and Shafi’ee scholars: **All living creatures that live in the sea are halal, whether they are in the form of a fish or not. (Fiqh alal Madhaahib al-Arbaa). Oyster, oyster extract, shrimp, lobster and shark are all halal and permissible.
**
Maliki scholars: **Every living creature of the sea is halal except eel. Hence, oyster, oyster extract, shrimp, lobster and shark are halal and permissible.

**Hanafi scholars: **The only living creatures of the sea that are permissible are those that are in the form of a fish with an exception of the hagfish and eel (these 2 even though they are not in the form of a fish they will be permissible to consume). Hence, according to the Hanafi scholars, it will not be permissible to eat oyster, oyster extract, shrimp and lobsters. It will be permissible to consume shark as it is in the form of a fish.

Better to ask a scholars who know what they are talking about and how the rulings are derived from Qur’an and sunnah and when the vast majority os scholars agree on something, it’s much safer to follow them.
