"Halal" is an Arabic word meaning "lawful" or "permissible", and the
term not only covers food and drink, but also to all matters of daily
life. When it comes to halal food, most people think of meat foods only.
However, Muslims must ensure that all foods, particularly processed
foods, pharmaceuticals, and non-food items like cosmetics, are also
halal. Frequently, these products contain animal by-products or other
ingredients that are not permissible for Muslims to eat or use on their
bodies.
Explicitly forbidden
A variety of substances are considered as harmful (haraam) for humans
to consume and, therefore, forbidden as per various Quranic verses:
Animals slaughtered in the name of anyone but God. All that has been
dedicated or offered in sacrifice to an idolatrous altar or saint or a
person considered to be "divine"[Quran2:173][Quran5:3]
An animal that has been strangled, beaten (to death), killed by a
fall, gored (to death), savaged by a beast of prey (unless finished off
by a human)[Quran5:3]
Food over which God's name is not pronounced (or at least not in a name other than God)[Quran6:121]
