FATWA
Live Bait for Fishing.
Q. Is it permissible to use live bait for fishing?
A. It is not permissible to use live bait for fishing as this causes pain and suffering to the creature. (Fataawa Mahmoodiya vol.2 pg.397) Hadhrat ibn Umar (Radhiallaahu Anhu) narrates that Nabi (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) cursed the person who uses any living creature as a target. (Muslim vol.2 pg.153; Rashidiyyah)
And Allah knows best.
Mufti Ebrahim Desai
