Kawsaj that if it is caught in the night, an aromatic fat can be obtained from inside its abdomen, but it does not come out if it is hooked in daylight. The river Dijlaĥ (Tigris) of Basra is plentiful with Kawsaj during its specific season. (Derived from: Ḥayāt-ul-Ḥaywān, vol. 2, pp. 425)
Question: Is there any reason why fish get caught?
Answer: According to some reported traditions, only those fish oblivious of Żikrullāĥ are hooked or caught in the net. Hence A’lā Ḥaḍrat, Imām-e-Aĥl-e-Sunnat, Maulānā Shāĥ Imām Aḥmad Razā Khān عَـلَيْهِ رَحْمَةُ الـرَّحْمٰن has mentioned in his Fatāwā Razawiyyaĥ (referenced), volume 9 page 760, that: It is narrated by Abū Ash-Shaykh ‘مَا اُخِذَ طَائِرٌ وَّلَا حُوۡتٌ اِلَّا بِتَضۡيِيۡعِ التَّسۡبِيۡحِ’, i.e., birds and fish are not caught until they leave Żikrullāĥ (remembrance of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ). (Tafsīr Durr-e-Manšūr, vol. 4, pp. 184)
It is mentioned in Malfūẓāt A’lā Ḥaḍrat page 531: It is narrated by the Aĥl-e-Kashf (those mystics who have the powers to know the secrets through spiritual enlightenment), ‘All creatures recite Żikr (the remembrance of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ); they immediately die when they leave the remembrance of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. Every leaf celebrates the praises of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, when it neglects the praises of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, it falls down being separated from the tree.’
