Question ID 511 Wednesday 5th of June 2013

Question:

Salaamun alaykum, I wanted know what the opinion of islam is with regards to turning vegetarian and not having any meat. I seem to remember coming across a hadith that says we have to eat meat once in 40 days but i could be mistaken. Also, if it is not permitted to become vegetarian, would eating eggs only and avoiding meat be allowed? Thanks

Answer:

Our Prophet Mohammad (SAWA) who was the most merciful human being, did eat
meat. It is bad to leave his way of life and follow others. It is Makrooh
to leave eating mean for forty days and it leaves bad effect on the mental
and physical health.
Wassalam.

We Muslims are not allowed to eat Najis food. If the food which was touched

wetness by them at all like any food which is prepared usually with out
being touched with wetness, then it is allowed to eat it because it is not
Najis, but if it was been touched with wetness by them, then it became
Najis, and there is no way to eat Najis food whether offered by a Muslim or
non Muslim.
