Hi, my name is Chant and I would like to ask a serious question regarding muslims, Islam and pigs.
Earlier this week a company here in Denmark announced that they were developing a new type of bio-fuel.
To be more precise, a fuel made from dead animals mixed with diesel oil. This is of particuliar interest to farmers whose livestock have been inflicted with various diseases that disqualifies the meat for food.
Now, here comes the actual question. Among these dead animals are dead pigs. And as we all know, to muslims the pig is a "dirty" or "unclean" animal and they are not allowed to eat it.
But are they allowed to use it as fuel for their cars?
