Answer 2

Everything that is against human nature is 'haram' in Islam.

For example, pork meat is scientifically not suitable for human consumption, therefore its prohibited. Similarly Drugs, Alcohol and even Smoking is prohibited in Islam.

Islam is the only religion (way of life rather) that has so distinct and crystal clear divisions between permitted and prohibited.

Whether its for diet, clothes, medicines, housing etc of that Islam gives permission is beneficial for human body, soul and fits exaclty the nature.

Answer 6

Clearly mentioned in Qur'an.

5:3 Forbidden to you (for food) are: dead meat, blood, the flesh of swine, and that on which hath been invoked the name of other than Allah. that which hath been killed by strangling, or by a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by being gored to death; that which hath been (partly) eaten by a wild animal; unless ye are able to slaughter it (in due form); that which is sacrificed on stone (altars); (forbidden) also is the division (of meat) by raffling with arrows: that is impiety. This day have those who reject faith given up all hope of your religion: yet fear them not but fear Me. This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion. But if any is forced by hunger, with no inclination to transgression, Allah is indeed Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

What is halal?
5:5 This day are (all) things good and pure made lawful unto you. The food of the People of the Book is lawful unto you and yours is lawful unto them. (Lawful unto you in marriage) are (not only) chaste women who are believers, but chaste women among the People of the Book, revealed before your time,- when ye give them their due dowers, and desire chastity, not lewdness, nor secret intrigues if any one rejects faith, fruitless is his work, and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (all spiritual good).
