Nah, that’s to do with parasites afaik. Pig meat can be pretty dodgy (not so much these days thanks to better hygiene standards and the like) so religious leaders prohibited its consumption with some unrelated religious justification. Same reason jews don’t eat shellfish - dodgy at the best of times but especially so if obtained from warmer waters which you would have in the Middle East.
