HOW DO THE UNWISE INTERPRET THE QUR'AN?

this Divine Book. It is known today that, even after all the
inspections and precautions taken during the production of pork, it
still is physically unfit for human consumption, and is a type of meat
that creates health hazards in human beings. Nonetheless, the
production of pork is cost-effective and this is one of the reasons
why it is so popular worldwide. This tempting factor, we may notice,
somewhat resembles the flow of the fish during the Sabbath of the
Jews. When there are so many edible and delicious sources of meat
such as lambs, sheep, chickens, cows, countless varieties of birds,
animals of prey and many more, to covet pork meat when it is
forbidden by God would be considered a purposeful act.
Since the Qur'an is valid until the Day of Judgment, any form of
pork consumption, other than the extraordinary situations stated in
the Qur'an, is forbidden until then. If after a hundred years pork is
completely treated of any health hazards, to avoid consuming it
would still be a form of worship for true believers. Then, the
question of whether to eat it or not will again be a trial for those
mindless objectors.

occurred before the Qur'an's revelation. Therefore, these types of
Qur'anic anecdotes display many warnings, examples, signs and
messages to people.
The Qur'an conveys the ignorant words of those who are
unable to realize this holy wisdom:
When Our Signs are recited to them, they say, 'We
have already heard all this. If we wanted, we could say
