The Ruling on Selling Ornamental Fish
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And likewise, may Allah preserve you, what is the ruling on selling and buying ornamental fish that are placed in ponds for the purpose of looking at them?
Answer:
Ornamental fish. The fish have adornment; they are not actually ornamental, but it is merely their appearance. This is an appearance, and if this state is common among people, there is no harm in it. There is no harm in selling them; this is a sale of appearances, not a sale of adornment.
