I’ve been so long away from our conversation on science … are you here to stay now? It’s my turn isn’t it?
And totally apt answer above, but I think he is looking for why not chicken or beef based on the argument of health. So what you are telling him is that the “argument of not being health” is not the reason why it is haram, and that he is mistaken.
Rather, we must adhere to the instruction of Allah (SWT) and avoid the meat. You know the forbidding of pork also clarifies another thing. It proves that Paul was no prophet and that he was an imposter. It shows that Paul was the one who preached another gospel different to Isa (AS), because the Clarification that the Qur’an is has obviously shown that pork is and always will be haram and the Christians had no right to make it permissible, when God had told the Jews that it was not. The reference to pork links us to the ancient Abrahamic lineage.

Subhanallah, interesting isn’t it that pork is becoming so widespread and economical (inspite of health concerns) now that it is really proving to be a test of faith now.
I believe it is your turn. I still frequent though I reply seldom.
