4. Locusts.
Some commentators say that the horse is lawful; but it is generally held to be "makrúh."
Fish found dead in the water is unlawful; but if it be taken out and die afterwards it is lawful.
Alligators, turtles, crabs, snakes, frogs, etc., are unlawful. Wine is expressly forbidden in the Qurán; and, in the judgment of the learned, this prohibition extends to whatever has a tendency to intoxicate, such as opium, bhang, chars,[1] and tobacco. The Akhund of Swat[2] has issued several "fatwáhs," prohibiting the use of tobacco; but the chilam (or pipe), having become a national institution, no notice has been taken of the inhibition. The Wahhábis do not permit its use. In Trans-Indus territory, the hukka, or chilam, is never allowed in a mosque.
