Question 2120) - A man vowed not to eat "meat." He then ate fish. Is his vow broken?

A: No.*

* Although according to the juristic principle of Qiyas it is violated because the Quran calls fish meat," fish flesh is not meat in the sense of that flesh which is made from blood because fish do not have blood.
