Islam

The laws on Muslim food are very similar to those of Judaism.  The name for food Muslims can’t eat is Haram, food they can eat is called Halal.  Foods that people are not sure about are called Mashbooh.  Some foods that they can’t eat are pig, dog, donkey, carnivores, monkeys, cats, lions, frogs, crocodiles, turtles, worms, flies, cockroaches, owls, and eagles. This includes meat that was not slaughtered correctly, in the name of Allah.  Tea, alcohol, coffee and drugs are also not allowed.  Halal food that has been in contact with foods that are not allowed are then also not allowed.
