"pig, slob, disgusting person"

Calling someone a pig — in Islamic culture, the most ritually unclean animal. While dogs are najis, pigs are haram on another level: you can't touch them, eat them, or even keep them. Calling someone 'khuk' attacks their cleanliness, morality, and spiritual status simultaneously.

'Mesle khuk mizaneh' — he eats like a pig. 'Khuk' directed at a person for disgusting behavior, greed, or moral filth.
