Ask Qul - QA

Question : #168

Subject:	halal and haram fish
Question:	Salam, What's the ruling behind halal and haram fish? What type of fish can we eat?
Answer:	It is not permissible to eat from marine animals anything except fish that has scale. For instance, shrimp is considered from that category [of permissible sea animals]. But other than fish, like lobster, and similarly the fish that does not have scale is forbidden.

Follow Up Question:	So which fishes are allowed to be consumed? What is the rule behind it?
Follow Up Response Question:	The rule is that if a fish has scales and is caught alive, you can eat the fish. You are probably a better judge in identifying which fish is allowed and which is not.
