Islamic seminary issues fatwa against eating prawns
Hyderabad-based Islamic seminary Jamia Nizamia has issued a fatwa asking Muslims not to eat prawns, calling it a sin. The fatwa labelled the food as 'makruh tahrim' or abominable, as it is an  arthropod and does not fall under the category of fish. In 2016, the seminary had issued a fatwa against Muslims chanting 'Bharat Mata ki Jai'.
