Hi.

I've just seen your answer to HALAL‌ and HARAM.

You're right for HALAL. it's been accepted as a word in English. But, I'm afraid there's no word for HARAM. 

You've mentioned Wikipedia as a reference. That's not THAT reliable, I think.

Let me say that, it's better to think about internationally-accepted words to write here.

In my book, it needs more careful thought. We may manage to add the word HARAM to the list of English words some day!
