Wonders of Fish - Interesting Questions & Answers

Answer: Responding to the question, below is the research done by a Muftī Sahib of Dār-ul-Iftā Aĥl-e-Sunnat with a slight change of words: The Fish is an aquatic animal which is not required to be slaughtered. Sayyidunā Abū ‘Ubaydaĥ رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ did not have knowledge if it was alāl, secondly, the dead fish was found on the seashore, and it was not properly hunted, that is why more doubts were created and he رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ declared        it dead. Then with his own Ijtiĥād and due to the state of irresistible impulse (being helpless and restless with no choice) he رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ directed the troops to eat it. But his assumption about the fish being dead was a (Ijtiĥādī) mistake and this was the very reason that the Holiest Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم also ate the fish without any irresistible impulse.

The interpreters of adīš have stated different points on the fish eaten by the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. For instance, this was a divine food full of blessings; therefore, the Noble Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم asked for it and ate from it, besides this point it is also possible that the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم specially ate the meat of that fish so as to remove the Ijtiĥādī mistake committed by Sayyidunā Abū ‘Ubaydaĥ رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ as well as he and other companions would know that the fish was alāl.
