9 hadiths1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَمَّنْ أَخْبَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ لا بَأْسَ بِأَنْ يَصِيدَ الْمُحْرِمُ السَّمَكَ وَيَأْكُلَ مَالِحَهُ وَطَرِيَّهُ وَيَتَزَوَّدَ وَقَالَ أُحِلَّ لَكُمْ صَيْدُ الْبَحْرِ وَطَعامُهُ مَتاعاً لَكُمْ قَالَ مَالِحُهُ الَّذِي يَأْكُلُونَ وَفَصْلُ مَا بَيْنَهُمَا كُلُّ طَيْرٍ يَكُونُ فِي الآجَامِ يَبِيضُ فِي الْبَرِّ وَيُفْرِخُ فِي الْبَرِّ فَهُوَ مِنْ صَيْدِ الْبَرِّ وَمَا كَانَ مِنْ صَيْدِ الْبَرِّ يَكُونُ فِي الْبَرِّ وَيَبِيضُ فِي الْبَحْرِ وَيُفْرِخُ فِي الْبَحْرِ فَهُوَ مِنْ صَيْدِ الْبَحْرِ.
1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad from Hariz from those whom he has mentioned who has said the following: “Abu ‘ Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said, ‘It is not harmful to catch fish while one is in the state of Ihram and use it for food, regardless if it is salty or fresh. Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, has said, “Hunting from the sea is made lawful for you and sea food is for your supplies.” (5:96) He (the Imam) has said, ‘The salty one is what you use for food. The difference in between is that every bird in the jungle that lays egg on land and hatches on land is of the hunting prey on land. Of the hunting subject on land those which lay eggs in the sea and hatch in the sea are of the objects of hunting from the sea.”’

If they kill such animals, they owe penalty as Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, has said.’”
