Halal is an Arabic word which means permissible or lawful. In the Holy Quran, God commands Muslims and all of mankind to eat of the Halal things - "O mankind! Eat of that which is lawful and wholesome, and follow not the footsteps of the devil.  Lo! he is an avowed enemy of you." (2:168)

Haram Can Become Halal
In case of necessity, people are allowed to eat haram food and drinks such as pork, dead animals and wine as the Shari'ah rule states "Necessity dictates exceptions". This rule is backed by the Quranic verses:
"O you who believe eat of the good things that We have provided for you and be grateful to Allah if its him you worship. He has only forbidden you dead meat and blood and the flesh of swine and that on which any other name has been invoked besides that of Allah, but if one is forced by necessity without willful disobedience, nor transgressing due limits then is he guiltless for Allah is Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful" (2:172-173).
What are haram food and drinks?
Haram food or drinks is determined by one or more of the following factors:
  Prohibited by a clear legal evidence,   Animals not slaughtered in the Islamic manner,
  Contain unlawful or filthy elements,   Animals dedicated to someone other than Allah,
  Unclean and impure,   Obtained through illegal means.
  Harmful to human body nad health,    
       
 
Four categories of food and drinks prohibited in Islam :
 
1. Prohibited By Itself
This category comprises any food and drink prohibited by a clear text from the Quran.
2. Prohibited Due To External Factors
Any food or drink which is basically halal but transformed into haram due to one of the haram determining factors makes it prohibited. e.g. A halal lamb is becomes haram if its stolen.
3. Prohibited Due To Harmfulness
Any food or drink that harms human body or health.
4. Prohibited Due To Impurity And Filthiness
Any food or drink that is not clean and pure is haram. The goodness and wholesomeness of food and drinks are deteriorated by filth and impurity thus making them haram.
