The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a piece of land is submerged in water and owned by its owner, is it permissible for him to lease it out as a fish farm?
The Shaykh:
For fish.
The questioner:
Yes.
The Shaykh:
For fish. Where does the fish come from? He is the one who brings the fish and puts them in it. If he wants to bring fish and put them in it, there is no contradiction. There is nothing wrong with that.
