  Among the Indian religions, Jainism opposes the eating of meat, while some schools of Buddhism and Hinduism advocate but do not mandate vegetarianism. Jewish Kashrut dietary rules allow certain kosher meats and forbid others (treif). The rules prohibit the consumption of unclean animals such as pork, and mixtures of meat and milk. Similar rules apply in Islamic dietary laws: The Quran explicitly forbids meat from animals that die naturally, blood, and the meat of pigs, which are haram, forbidden, as opposed to halal, allowed. Some Sikh groups oppose eating any meat.
