Seafood, haram? Meaning of Makrooh
Assalmu alaikum
As far as I know, anything that crawls is forbidden to eat. For example, crabs.
What about lobster though? They are kept in water, like fish so are we able to eat lobster or not.
Can someone please explain makrooh to me?
Thank you. |

Where did you hear that!!!!
Please be careful when calling something haram, especially something that Allah has made halal.
Search the hadith for the lizard called dab or dhab. Muslims eat it and used to eat it too. It is a crawling creature. |

Well Literly "makrooh" means unpleasent thing whom ONE doesn't LIKE. In the Sharee'ah Those things that are NOT declared Haram But it looks that they MAY fall in this Category on the Basis of Ijtihaad etc They are Called "Makrooh".
I hope I've Explained it Correctly. If not Plz Correct Me. thanks |

| "Basis of Ijtihaad" - can you explain this? Please understand, that I am a revert to Islam, that Urdu nor arabic are languages that I do not speak therefor, it is a learning process for me. |

hmmmmm Well Ijtihaad in simple words means that a thing that we didn't find in the Islamic Law, we relate it with some Similar thing & derive an almost similar order for that. Here Two or More persons may DIFFER due their OWN understanding of the TWO things.
I hope it's Clear NOW |
