Arabia (the Arabian Sea region), Labrador (the Labrador Shelf), and Scandinavia (including the Scandinavian Peninsula and adjacent seas) are all regions known for their rich fishing grounds. The Arabian Sea benefits from strong monsoonal upwelling that brings nutrients to the surface, supporting abundant pelagic fish stocks. The Labrador Shelf, in the sub-arctic Northwest Atlantic, is a cold-water region where nutrient-rich waters sustain dense fish communities. Scandinavia, with its fjords and coastal waters influenced by the Gulf Stream and tidal mixing, supports productive fisheries for species like cod and herring. While Arabia and Scandinavia are peninsulas, Labrador is a large peninsula region, and not all are Muslim countries or islands. Therefore, the best analogy is that all these regions have fine fishing grounds.

Patna is the capital city of Bihar, Dispur is the capital city of Assam, and Bombay (now Mumbai) is the capital city of Maharashtra.
