Kutha
Kutha , Kuttha or Kuthha denotes the form of the religious-ritual forbidden in the religion of Sikhism and the slaughter of animals in the form of Muslim halal and Jewish kosher meat, which Sikhs consider slow and painful ; in contrast to the permitted quick slaughter, the Jhatka , which aims to let the slaughtered animal suffer as short as possible.
history
Guru Nanak disapproved of the fact that Hindus ate halal meat in his day , while in other respects they strictly adhered to their dietary rules: “They eat goat meat, which has been slaughtered kutha and foreign words spoken, but they do not allow anyone to enter their cooking area. "
Word origin
Kutha is derived from the Panjabi -Verb Kohna "torture".
