Halal

Ḥalāl (Arabic: حلال‎ ḥalāl, 'permissible') is a term designating any object or an action which is permissible to use or engage in, according to Islamic law. The term is used to designate food seen as permissible according to Islamic law. The opposite of this word is haraam.

Halal foods are foods that Muslims are allowed to eat under Islamic Shariʻah. The criteria specify both what foods are allowed, and how the food must be prepared. The foods addressed are mostly types of meat and animal tissue

Haram

Ḥarām (Arabic: حَرَام‎ ḥarām) is an Arabic term meaning sinful. In Islamic Jurisprudence, haraam is used to refer to any act that is forbidden by God, and is one of five الأحكام الخمسة (al-ahkam al-khamsah) that define the morality of human action. Acts that are haraam are typically prohibited in the religious texts of the Quran and the Sunnah. The category of haraam is the highest status of prohibition. Islam teaches that a haraam (sinful) act is recorded by an angel on your left shoulder. If something is considered haraam, it remains prohibited no matter how good the intention is or how honorable the purpose is. A haraam is converted into a gravitational force on the day of judgement and placed on mizan (weighing scales). Views of different madhabs can vary significantly regarding what is or is not haraam.
