Hui people fast pork:

Hui people strictly, conscientiously and consciously implement the rule of "no pork". In the eyes of Muslims, pigs among domestic animals are greedy, lazy, ugly and stupid, rolling in the mud and annoying. Therefore, among all taboos, the first one is the prohibition of pigs, which is the most resolute and common.

At the same time, the fasting of pork caused a series of chain reactions, and it developed to ban leather shoes, leather clothes and belts made of pigskin, brushes and toothbrushes made of bristles, and no daily necessities such as soap and balsam containing lard.

Not only that, Muslims even avoid talking about the word "pig" and call it "black animal", or transliterate it as "malicious keeler" in Arabic. What's more, even the homonym of "pig" is taboo. For example, Muslims whose surname is Zhu are changed to "black". Born in the year of the pig, it was renamed "Black" or "Hai".
