Is the Keto diet haram?

[Celery]

I’ve been on a high fat low carb diet for 4 years now with great results. I didn’t want to have dates and sweets on eid and when asked for the reasoning, I told people I just don’t eat sugar. This sheikh freaked out and said if something isn’t haram you can’t make it haram. Then I put a date in my mouth, walked away and spat it out.

Anyway, is this a thing? Is eating fat all the time haram?

I know of no Islamic texts that say that a low carb high fat diet would be haram, then again I'm not a scholar.

Most likely it's not haram, as long as you're eating halal meat and avoiding khamri you should be fine.

No, like what makes it haram? Not wanting to eat date? That's completely normal, any one saying otherwise or saying it's haram, is making shit up

He was saying I shouldn’t abstain from certain foods if they aren’t haram…almost accusing me of making up new laws etc

 

[JaalleWadani]

If it doesnt harm you it is halal!

How’s that working out for you? What do you eat anyway? My diet is heavy in beef and camel, eggs, salmon, non-milk dairy like cheese and heavy cream, and a ton of leafy greens (like obscene amounts). I also throw in the occasional almond flour cakes and sweets using swerve but this is once a month. My net carbs make up less than 10% of my daily calories

It's working out good. I tried to be a vegan but failled...it's too fattening. Keto is the way to go.

Vegan is too fattening so you went keto?

That's dumb question to ask but alright I see you trying to learn the Deen and also if you were offered to eat one date it's alright there's nothing harmful coming from it as it's nutritional fruit with high fiber.

The answer is no isn't Haram it's only Haram if pork fats are part of your diet

Don't make shit up if you don't know what Hadith is

Don't make shit up if you don't know what Hadith is

There might be one about eating meat too often. Some asshole wahhabi bum told me there’s a Hadith.

 

[Shibbane]

I would ignore the Sheikh unless he as a PHD in nutrition science.

But I wouldn't turn down a few dates because of a diet.

Just take the damn dates for that cousin's wedding or Eid or whatever.

It is just good manners.

One day won't hurt your 4 years of hard work.

Don't be extreme.
