    To recite the name of God on slaughtering an animals is to counter the beast-like act of slaughtering of Muslim, not that it is necessary to recite before taking an animal’s life. In catching fish, beast-like act is not involved, so no need to recite God’s name on it.

      He said at last in Ilm o hikmat one that ‘Allah ka naam to behrehaal lena hi ha’,so for picking or cutting or cooking fish, you ‘must’ say the name of Allah once?

      On the basis that it is Sunnah to take Allah’s name while eating, and an encouraged act to do that before starting any activity.

    Yes, but obligatory or voluntary?

    Thankyou🥰

    In such case, not obligatory.

    Salam,

    Regarding saying God’s name while we take life (slaughter an animal), so we are doing so with permission from God and can’t take a life unless we say that it is with permission from God. How is it not the same with fish as over there we are also taking a life? Shouldn’t the same principal apply in case of fish?

    Pardon for any lack of knowledge or mistakes in my opinion.

      Yes I watched the video, the act of slaughtering or spillage of blood is not being taken in that sense but regardless death is occuring for the fish. My question remains that how can it be permissible if God’s name is not pronounced on it keeping in view the principle outlined in the Quran?

    God’s name is pronounced to counter the beastlike act of slaughtering performed by man. It is for the purification the slaughterer. It reminds a person that he’s taking a life with the permission of God. No beastlike act of slaughtering is performed on fish, so to pronounce God’s name is not prescribed.
