The answer

Allah the Almighty has not forbidden anything except for a wisdom. Allah has honored the human being and prohibited aggression against him, and made it obligatory to bury his corpse, which contradicts the permissibility of eating his flesh. The questioner is advised to focus on religiously beneficial questions.
