		<description>Halal Pork? This is the joke of the year. True or hoax,
it doesn&#039;t make any difference to true Muslims.
Any true Muslim in his/her right mind wouldn&#039;t even touch it even if it is truly stamped Halal.
They don&#039;t even eat from non-Muslim restaurants or 
businesses selling halal, as they use the same machines, utensils and recite the name of their gods
whose picture is hanging in the Kitchen wall.
And so that food becomes haraam automatically.
Salaam.
 
Salaam/peace.</description>

		<description>pork is NOT HALAL. 
How can we consume this meat when its crystal clear that this animal cannot be eaten by muslims. On the top of that its the ditiest animal on earth as it eats its own waste which is not good for health.</description>

		<description>&gt;if you smell a rotten or burning pigs flesh it smells the &gt;same as human flesh.

I&#039;d like to test that.</description>

		<description>I misread the post, please dump my previous comment.

Pigs are haram due to the wisdom of Allah SWT. There is research that shows that due to the types of foods that pigs eat, they are prone to inject parasites that can be transferred in the meat when eaten by humans. Also, pig flesh is the nearest type of flesh to human, hence when you get a skin graft, you can still to this day use pig skin to graft with. Also, if you smell a rotten or burning pigs flesh it smells the same as human flesh.

But Allah knows best.</description>

		<description>&quot;Shah: On top of that, the Muslims in Asia also believe that they cannot touch dog because it is “dirty” but in certain part of Arab, nomads and tribes still keep dog especially a particular breed I forgot the name.&quot;

it is haram to eat any animal with canine teeth, and that includes dogs, cats and the like. If you read the Quraan and Hadith yu will find exactly what you can and can not eat and most importantly WHY.

		<description>Out of due respect, I am a Muslim too, but why do God created a pig if it is haram to consume.
I understand abt animals that are half-dead, fell headlong, consume by other animals but WHY specifically a pig is haram.
On top of that, the Muslims in Asia also believe that they cannot touch dog because it is &quot;dirty&quot; but in certain part of Arab, nomads and tribes still keep dog especially a particular breed I forgot the name.
Jazakallah.</description>

		<description>According to Holy Quran and Hadithes of Holy Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him) this animal is haram full stop. Even Jewish people who follow thier scripture don&#039;t eat this filthy animal. But I can agree with the comment from brother Hassan bin Maqbool that some young Muslims in UK do eat all sorts of haram foods i.e burgers, in different fast food chains. Somehow they need to be educated.</description>

		<description>&quot; He hath only forbidden you dead meat, and blood, and the flesh of swine, and that on which any other name hath been invoked besides that of Allah. But if one is forced by necessity, without wilful disobedience, nor transgressing due limits,- then is he guiltless. For Allah is Oft-forgiving Most Merciful.&quot; The Holy Quran 2:173 


&quot; Forbidden to you (for food) are: dead meat, blood, the flesh of swine, and that on which hath been invoked the name of other than Allah; that which hath been killed by strangling, or by a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by being gored to death; that which hath been (partly) eaten by a wild animal; unless ye are able to slaughter it (in due form); that which is sacrificed on stone (altars); (forbidden) also is the division (of meat) by raffling with arrows: that is impiety. This day have those who reject faith given up all hope of your religion: yet fear them not but fear Me. This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion. But if any is forced by hunger, with no inclination to transgression, Allah is indeed Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.&quot; The Holy Quran 5:3</description>

		<description>Well,
          There is no doubt whether pork is halal or haram. Pork is pork which is strictly prohibited in Islam. Even I have seen people eating chicken and Beef from Macdonald in UK and they believe it&#039;s halal. Infact it&#039;s not.Any Burger King,Macdonald and KFC is not halal in UK.</description>

		<description>It is a hoax.

The company that imports the meat from Australia to Singapore reported it to police. The Islamic Council of Singapore did an investigation and did not find any with the Halal sticker.
