In Islamic dietary laws, the general rule is that food and drink are considered lawful unless there is explicit evidence from the Quran or Hadith prohibiting them. Allah mentions certain prohibited foods in the Quran: “Carrion, blood, pork, and animals that were not slaughtered in the name of Allah, animals that were strangled, beaten to death, fallen, gored, or killed by wild beasts” (Surah Al-Ma’idah, 5:3).
There is no specific prohibition regarding raw meat in the texts, so it is not considered haram. However, Islam encourages the protection of health, and doctors warn that raw meat may contain harmful bacteria that could cause illness. Therefore, consuming raw meat should be done cautiously, considering health risks.
