Going back to my original question 
Google and other AI seem to lack a good info about it.
For example in the first answer copied by Radim it says:
The problem is that these pictures don't depict a merman (male version of mermaid). They depict a standard man swallowed by a fish.
Look closely. The fish has a mouth and an eye. We have two creatures here.

In European iconography the only similar thing I know is prophet Jonah swallowed by a fish. Are these types of pictures related??? Dunno.
So my question remains - what do these Islamic picture actually show?
And I would have additional question for Radim:
In the previous posts you showed supposed similarities between Voynich and Ethiopian art which is Christian. Now you decided to include Islamic protection charms which are actually from another culture. It doesn't blend easily. It is just like Tree of Sefiroth (You are not allowed to view links.

How do you believe, where Voynich Manuscript was created? Ethiopia, Europe or something else? And did they consciously used Muslim imagery?

Quote:Does anybody know more about these "man swallowed by a fish" Islamic pictures?
Is this a common way in Islamic culture to show the sign of Pisces?
Or does it have another meanings?
