3314. It was narrated from 'Abdullāh bin 'Umar that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Two kinds of dead meat and two kinds of blood have been permitted to us. The two kinds of dead meat are fish and locusts, and the two kinds of blood are the liver and spleen." (Sahih)

Arabic text

3314 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُصْعَبٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «أُحِلَّتْ لَكُمْ مَيْتَتَانِ وَدَمَانِ، فَأَمَّا الْمَيْتَتَانِ، فَالْحُوتُ وَالْجَرَادُ، وَأَمَّا الدَّمَانِ، فَالْكَبِدُ وَالطِّحَالُ»

Commentary

All types of fish is lawful, it does not need to be slaughtered. Some scholars differentiate between the type of lawful dead fish and unlawful dead fish. There is no basis for such differentiation. b. Liver and spleen are named as blood for their similarity to the blood; otherwise, they are not blood. Only the blood that flows in the body is forbidden.
