Is Squid Halal in Sunni?

Published in Islamic Dietary Laws 1 min read

Yes, according to the majority of Sunni Islamic scholars, squid is considered halal (permissible) to eat.

While there may be some differing opinions among various schools of thought regarding specific sea creatures, the general consensus within Sunni Islam is that all creatures from the sea are halal, unless explicitly prohibited. Squid and other similar sea creatures like octopus are not listed among the prohibited items. This ruling stems from the Quranic verse that generally permits consumption of seafood.

Therefore, based on the prevailing opinion, eating squid is halal for Sunni Muslims.
