Accepted Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

We did not find any religious text stating the ruling on consuming fish and liver in the previous divine laws. However, it is enough for us to know that those things are Halaal (lawful to eat) in the Islamic Sharee'ah. It was reported on the authority of Ibn ‘Umar that the Prophet said: “Two kinds of dead meat and two kinds of blood have been made lawful for us. The two kinds of dead meat are fish and locusts, and the two kinds of blood are the liver and spleen.”

Allaah Knows best.
