Why Muslims can't eat pork is as follows:
Muslims don't eat pork because of religious beliefs, myths, eating habits and so on.
1. Religious belief
As we all know, Muslims believe in Islam, and the Islamic doctrine says that it is forbidden to eat dead things, bleeding and pork. Therefore, the fundamental reason why Hui people do not eat pork is their belief and absolute loyalty to Allah's orders, so religious belief may be one of the reasons why Hui people do not eat pork.
2. Mythology
It is said that the ancestors of the Hui people were saved by pigs in a defeat and fled, and they were grateful for saving their lives. Therefore, the ancestors of the Hui people stipulated that the Hui people should not eat pork, which is a kind of kindness that drips from the water, reflecting the importance of the Hui people from the side. Because this is only a legend, there is no way to verify it.
3. Eating habits
Pigs are ugly, weird, greedy and stupid. The languages of all nationalities in the world use the word "pig" to describe ugly, lazy and stupid people. The Islamic diet is based on the principle of beauty. The so-called "beauty" mainly refers to the "cleanliness and character" of the food. Muslims talk about "hygiene and health", which can be described as "food for nourishment". So Muslims don't eat pork.
