Abu Hurairah narrated that a man asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), "O Messenger of Allah, we travel by sea and carry only a small amount of water. If we use it for ablution, we will be left thirsty. Can we perform ablution with sea water?" The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) replied:
"Its water is pure, and its dead (animals) are lawful (to eat)."

ف: اس حدیث کو ”الْحِلُّ مَيْتَتُهُ“ (اس کا مردار حلال ہے) سے حنفیہ کے نزدیک صرف مچھلی مراد ہے کیوں کہ وہ ذبح کے بغیر خود بخود مر جاتی ہے، اس کا شکار کرنا اور اس کو پانی سے نکالنا ہی ذبح کرنا ہے۔12
