    In the series above Ghamidi sahab explains first the principles based on which Quran prohibits the wild animals and anything related to beastliness. What does Quran want to achieve with that, the objective: to avoid the weakening of believing-self in human nature – which he postulates in episode 7.

    Firstly, can someone give the references from the Quran from which he derives that “objective”?

    Secondly, he puts forth the western nations as an evidence. But one can bring many other factors to the spotlight which caused such disbelief in the western nations. Has he explained this theory in its applicative form – like he does with the Yajuj and majuj and the end of the world – because pig meat has been eaten for many many centuries then why now; if he hasn’t explained it anywhere else then can someone please request him to do that because to the extent of my knowledge we don’t get anyone else in the Islamic world with such unique position in this matter as him.

    See verse 5:1. It tells that only cattles are halal which means that the beasts are haram.

    Human nature avoids consuming beast. The shariah tells that same. The objective is purification of food. This kind of purification is metaphysical. It means if one consumes flesh of beast it corrupts one spiritually.

    Ghamidi saheb cites west because they are the people of book or they come from the Christian culture. Christianity discarded shariah but what they chose to eat is only pig as favourite, among the prohibited meat.

    The descendent of yaphat or yajuj and majuj didn’t receive the divine guidance for a very long period. Still their consumption of beast like dogs has never been a common food. Divergence from human nature is also a part of nature.

    Exceptions do not nullify a principle, they instead, confirms the principle is correct.
