What about Pigs

Re: What about Pigs

@Mirch

I do not know about Hazrat Esa coming and killing all pigs, that if it is a Hadees or just hearsay.
Why something is haram has not been explained in Quran. I do not know if there are some hadees which explain it. Never heard of one.
Whatever we the muslim come up as an explanation is all a theory and can be proved wrong. For example for a long time it was said that pig is haram because it is a dirty animal and because it is the only animal which is homosextual.** Also because they spread certain kind of disease. None of it is exclusively true in this day and age.**
The mere fact that Allah has made it haram without explaining the reason should be enough for us.
There are some things you can explain to others , there are other things which cannot be explained. For example what proof do you have for the existance of Jins and angels ? How would you explains jins and angels to other religions ? Other than that Allah has told us about their existance and there are Ahadees about their existance. Can you explain why Allah needs angels to help Him out ? He is Almighty , all powerfull , he can do anything or everything by just saying kun ( happen) then why he needs helpers to run his kindom ?

I agree that whatever has been prohibited in Quran should be obeyed. But everything that has been banned or declared haram has a reason, therefore making a research on that is no sin and can be or should be analysed into the deep.
More over have a look at that http://www.paklinks.com/gs/showthread.php?t=236183
and you might find that It is scientifically proven that It causes trouble to health. My neighbour had health problem because of consuming pig, therefore the doctors strictly restricted her of eating pig.
