Is It Permitted to Eat Raw Meat?


Hanafi Fiqh

Answered by Ustadh Salman Younas

Question: Is it permissible to eat raw meat?

Answer: I pray you are well.

Meat from animals that are lawful is permissible to consume if slaughtered validly. As for eating such meat raw, this would be also permissible if no harm, such as illness, is feared through its consumption. Otherwise, it would be disliked or impermissible depending on the degree one fears harm.
