He has only forbidden you carrion, blood and pork and what has been
consecrated to other than Allah. But anyone who is forced to eat it –
without desiring it or going to excess in it – commits no crime. Allah
is Ever-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (Surat al-Baqara, 173)
The wisdom behind Allah's prohibition of blood emerged during the 20th
century. By carrying vitamins, hormones, oxygen and substances such as
protein, sugar and fat absorbed during digestion to the cells, blood
makes it possible for life to survive. On theother hand, it also
carries various toxins and waste products that need to be expelled
from the body. One of the most important tasksperformed by blood is
totransport substances such as urea, uric acid, keratin and carbon
dioxide that need to be removed from the body.
Therefore, in the event that significant quantities of blood are
consumed, the level of products in the body that should be expelled
will rise considerably. That will increase the levels of urea, harmful
substances transported to the kidneys for expulsion from the body.This
can impair brain functions and even result in coma. That is why,
because of its very nature, there will alwaysbe harmful compounds in
blood, even if taken from healthy animals. If it is taken from a sick
animal, various parasitesand germs will also be transmitted in it. In
that event, the germs may multiply and spread throughout the body. And
that is the real danger. If someone consumes blood, all the germs and
waste products in it may spread through the bodyand lead to such
diseases as kidney insufficiency or liver coma. In addition, most of
the microbes carried in the blood may cause other diseases by damaging
the lining of the stomach and the intestines.
What is more, blood is not a sterile environment; to put it another
way, it is ideal for germs to grow in. i Since microbes have excellent
opportunities to feed in blood, it represents an ideal environment for
them. When in equilibrium with the functions of theother fluids in the
body and the immune system, blood does not support micro-organisms,
and therefore disease. In a healthy individual, thesemicro-organisms
live by making use of one another inside the body.When that
environment is seriously impaired, when the internal equilibrium is
damaged, in other words, they mayturn into micro-organisms that cause
disease when they find the appropriate surroundings.
For example, when the blood pH level (acid and alkali balance) is
imbalanced because of poor nutrition or harmful chemicals, harmless
microbes can change into ones that cause disease. If the body is to be
healthy, the pH level of the blood should be around 7.3. Even small
variations in that level may cause thatbalance to be impaired and
cause micro-organisms to become more harmful in order toadapt to their
surroundings. Blood being sterile may be compared to milk going off
when left outside. Microbes already presentin the blood exhibit
harmful effects by adapting to their new environment. ii
In addition to all this, blood is not suitable for use as a food
product. The level of digestible proteins such as albumin, globulin
and fibrinogen is low; just 8 grams in 100 ml. of blood. The same
applies to fats. In addition, blood contains a high level of
hemoglobin, a complex protein that is very difficult to digest and is
unacceptable to the stomach. When blood clots, the protein fibrinogen
gives rise to aplate containing erythrocytes (red blood corpuscles) by
turning into fibrin. Fibrin is one of the hardest proteins to digest,
thus making blood even more difficult to digest. In conclusion, health
experts agree that bloodis unfit for human consumption in any form.
After saying: "Unlawful for you are carrion, blood and pork, and what
has been consecrated to other than Allah, and animals which have been
strangled, and animals which have been killed by a blow, and animals
which have fallen to their death, and animals which have been gored,
and animals which wild beasts have eaten – except those you are able
to slaughter properly – and animals which have been sacrificed on
altars, and deciding things by means of divining arrows – that is
deviance…." Almighty Allah goes on to say…" But if anyone is forced by
hunger, not intending any wrongdoing, Allah is Ever-Forgiving, Most
Merciful" (meaning that an exception can be made.) (Surat al-Ma'ida,
3) People of the time were unaware of the wisdom behind it, but were
protected by abiding by Allah's prohibition. Those who believe and
trust in Allahand comply with His commandments and prohibitions will
enjoy auspicious lives in terms of the Hereafter and alsolive under
Allah's protection and infinite mercy.

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
