  Because it’s a cartoon in which all the fish are speaking English, engaged in human activities & personalities & situational drama just like humans.

    … Are the fish Muslim?

    As part of their acting like humans?

    Also, generally speaking, fish are halal to eat.

    So there’s no reason for a non muslim fish to either literally not be halal, as food, nor abide by muslim dress code, as a ‘person’.

    The widely varying different standards of Islamic Dress Codes != Halal.

    To conflate the two would be like asking if a Yarmulke is Kosher. Its … nonsensical.

      If the fish aren’t Muslim then perhaps that poster up there should not be advertising the movie night as “Halal” 🤭

        No you don’t get it.

        Halal, most literally, means basically ‘approved’.

        In this context, its essentially ‘Family Friendly’.

        Inshallah most literally means ‘Godwilling’, genuine, earnest hope that the family is reunited.

        I wonder if anything is going on anywhere in the Muslim world where a story about a family being able to reunite would be a resonant and uplifting story.

        Again, there’s nothing inherently forbidden about … non Muslims existing, to the vast majority of Muslims.

        Most of the people in this thread are being bigotted by way of presumably ignorance.

        And I’m a kafir, a dhimmi, an Atheist, who just likes to learn about different cultures and religions.
