Bah. Make everything "haraam" instead and die. The flesh is evil so stop breathing because it contains oxygen, carbon dioxide and all other sorts of particles flying around and die from suffocation. The flesh is just concealed energy, live and get over it. Some foods are less suitable for consumption due to design preferences and pig meat is among that slow to digest and high similarity to human DNA so it is like cannibalism to eat it. And blood lacks nutrition. And remember you become what you eat. The pig consumes basically anything even humans. Murderers have even used pigs to dispose of corpses. Salaam

With due respect to friends of FreeMinds - Allow me to inquire as to WHO it was - First of All - that, & WHEN & WHERE- as far as is possible to 'evidentially' trace - that 'laid down' that the "Koran" specifically prohibits the following EITHER during organized prayer OR during any time whatsoever singing instrumental music singing accompanied by instrumental music With the basis behind such 'prohibition' being known, the issue could well be commented upon further
