Muslims have a prohibition against eating an animal with a cloven hoof that does not chew cud - which describes a pig. Jews (and early Christians) have the same prohibition. The basis of the reasoning might be lost, but could have been because of health concerns due to a hog's diet and habits.

Islam is a religion that calls for submission to Allah (God in English). It is the followers of Islam, called Muslims, who are commanded not to eat pork not the Islam religion. Refer to question below for more information.
