Assalamulaikum,

There is another bird from the crow species known as “Zaag” or “Guraab-e-Zaree” which is Halaal for consumption.

The other Type of crow is called the "Rook" which Maulana Rasheed Ahmed Gangohi r.e.h permit for comsumption.

Can someone provide me pics and details around both these birds ?

Also, if I am not mistaken below was the Question posed to him.

Question: The place where the majority of people accept the common crow to be Haraam and abuse those who eat it, in such a place will those who eat this crow gain Thawaab or neither Thawaab nor punishment?


Answer: They will gain Thawaab. [end] (Fataawa Rasheedia, pg. 493) Is "Rook" common in INDIA ? What i know living in India is the common crow is the one what eats on Najas(dead meat or rat etc).

Did Maualana r.e.h permit the common crow or the rook or something else ?

Also, why should it be Thawaab and not just permissible ?
