vegetarianism is not sunnah. Our prophet saws was a meat eater. If you want to follow a kaafir philosophy, which is against the Sunnah of Allah and his prophet, then go a head.

So by eating meat you will get closer to Allah and His Paradise, because following the sunnah gets you closer to Allah, is that what you're saying?

Well if your intention is to follow in the way of the prophet, then yes. No different than every other practice of the prophet saws.

The thing is, our religion and tradition never upheld this thing called vegetarianism. We have a whole CIID, called ciid al-adxa which is based on the sacrifice of animals, which are then eat. It is type of farx. This vegetarianism thing came from other cultures and other diins- namely hinduism. It was never known in our tradition as Somalis. I would therefore question upholding this thing, unless meat is causing you physical problems. The arguments that eating animals is inhumane is a kaafir invention.

Secondly, vegetarianism focks off the food cycle chain. If human beings stopped eating meat, all shit would break loose. Trust.

Aha, makes sense, especially your ciidul adxaa argument is very strong

We could all do with being part time vegetarians.

I can easily eat only vegetarian food for days at a time..too bad the rest of the family are not that enthusiastic...they seem to want something ''meaty'' alongside the beans/lentils that I cook.
