Who first drank coffee?
The history of coffee dates back centuries, first from its origin in ethiopia and yemen. It was already known in mecca in the 15th century. Also, in the 15th century, sufi muslim monasteries (khanqahs) in yemen employed coffee as an aid to concentration during prayers. These scholars and sources collectively contribute to the predominant view that coffee is permissible within islamic law, while also acknowledging the historical context and cultural significance surrounding its consumption.
