In many religions widely practiced in the Middle East, particularly Islam and Judaism, pork is considered forbidden. For Muslims, it is prohibited by the Quran, while for Jews, it is forbidden by the dietary laws of Kashrut. Additionally, both religions emphasize the importance of halal (permissible) and kosher (ritually acceptable) food practices, which further restrict certain types of meat and food preparation methods.

Where are religions practiced?

The term 'Eastern religions' usually refers to religions of East Asia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia, primarily Hinduism, Buddhism, Zen, and Taoism. Those areas would include countries such as India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, China and Tibet, Nepal, Bhutan, Japan, South Korea, Myanmar (Burma), Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand. There are other religions of India that could be included, such as Sikhism and Jainism, and religions of Japan and China such as Shintoism and Confucianism. In a separate category are the 'Abrahamic' religions originating in the Middle East (Judaism, Christianity, Islam); even when they are practiced in East or South Asia, they would not be considered part of the category 'Eastern religions.' Taoism and Confucianism originated in China. Buddhism began in India but now is a minority religion of India, though it is spread widely throughout other countries of Asia and also in the West. Theravada Buddhism is largely practiced in Southeast Asia; Vajrayana Buddhism in Tibet and Bhutan. Branches of Zen developed in China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam. Hinduism is practiced mainly in India but also in Nepal, Bangladesh, and other places. Shintoism originated in Japan.
