Abstract
The objective of this study is to compare the Islamic law on consuming forbidden (haram) food in critical time. Qualitative was used to develop a conceptual framework, issues and solutions. Data were collected from relevant documents and descriptive analysis was employed.
The findings in this study showed that critical time, in the context of the diet, are the time in which abstaining from consuming forbidden food will harm one’s health or body or cause death. The provisions of Islamic law on this issue cover all critical time and the law provides that consuming haram food in a critical time is compulsory. Islamic Law allows those who suffer from a long-term and wide spread critical time due to lack of food to continue consuming haram food until full enjoyment.
In the event of a critical time due to lack of food which is not wide spread and continuous, one is allowed to consume a sufficient amount of haram food to sustain life. In both cases, all kinds of food, except human flesh, are allowed. The rationale behind allowing the consumption of haram food in Islamic Law is to eliminate any possible harmfulness.
