Halachot and Customs

Is the fish 'Aras' kosher?

AA

Question

Hello esteemed Rabbi, I wanted to ask whether the fish known as 'Aras' in the fishing community is a kosher fish. I should mention that this fish is among the most common coastal fish in our land, and when I scrape its tail and back, very small scales remain that are visible to the eye. Despite this, opinions vary among people. What is your view?

Answer

Greetings

The fish is kosher.

Regards,

Benjamin Shmuali
