Abstract

Islam does not prohibit the consumption of meat. The Law of the Shari’ah and the Tradition of the Prophet Muhammad (s) sanction and even encourage carnivorousness. Muslim mystics in general also followed this rule. However, Sufi masters often advised their disciples to exercise moderation and particularly prescribed a vegetarian or even vegan diet for them when they were on their forty-day retreats, a practice that was met with severe criticisms by some orthodox Muslims.Despite that, some Sufi saints decided to become vegetarian for the rest of their lives. Out of compassion for all the creatures of God, some mystics even practiced total non-violence; not hurting any animal, even a harmful insect or a wild beast, let alone killing one.
