Halal and Haram - An alternative juridical view

Re: Halal and Haram - An alternative juridical view

You sidestepped what I asked. The reason for it being haram is not given other than our obedience to Allah SWT command. All the other explanations are our own extrapolations to justify it to those who we try to satisfy with an answer. In every ayat of the Quran where it is prohibited it specifically says FLESH OF SWINE. In the ahadith you can find further restriction on the fat as well. Nothing to do with skin at all. Can you get the skin of an animal when it is alive?
