Question

Is it permissible to say you are not going to eat meat and you are going to be a vegetarian, without any valid reason?

Answer

It is incorrect to make these types of statements and it is compulsory that you go against that.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
