10 Tough Questions About Islam That Are Hard to Answer, Complete with Explanations from the Quran and Hadith

As a religion guided by the Quran and hadith, Islam has rational answers for many critical questions about its teachings. Here’s a rundown of some tough questions and their explanations. Why does Islam forbid pork? This prohibition is based on QS. Al-Baqarah: 173 and health wisdom, because pigs can be hosts for parasites and diseases. About hijab, QS. An-Nur: 31 explains the obligation to cover the awrah to maintain honor and identity as a Muslim woman, not as a form of restriction. Polygamy is allowed under strict conditions of fairness, according to QS. An-Nisa: 3, as a solution for certain circumstances. The purpose of human life is to worship Allah (QS. Az-Zariyat: 56), which includes all good activities. Hudud punishments like hand amputation (QS. Al-Ma’idah: 38) aim to maintain security with strict proof requirements. Islam encourages knowledge (QS. Al-Mujadalah: 11) and forbids usury (QS. Al-Baqarah: 275) because of its injustice. Destiny is understood with effort and trust in God, according to a hadith narrated by Muslim. Islam teaches tolerance towards non-Muslims as long as they don’t fight against you (QS. Al-Mumtahanah: 8). About not being able to see Allah in this world, QS. Al-A’raf: 143 explains human limitations, and later in paradise believers will be able to see Him. https://mozaik.inilah.com/dakwah/10-pertanyaan-agama-islam-yang-sulit-dijawab-lengkap-dengan-penjelasan-dari-alquran-dan-hadis

Finally someone explains polygamy using actual proofs and the requirement of being fair. Not just blindly following trends, but truly having to be ready, inside and out.

I love that point about the hijab - it's not a restriction but about protecting your honor. Makes me even more excited to wear it now.

That part about destiny really hits hard-make an effort first, then leave the rest to God. Not just giving up.

Why is pork forbidden? It's clearly stated in the Quran and there's wisdom behind it health-wise too. I get asked about this a lot by my non-Muslim friends actually.

A lot of people get confused about usury, when actually it's clearly unfair. Thanks for the reminder, especially nowadays with all these online loans everywhere.
