The prohibition of killing and eating cows among the Hindus are generally well known. This paper aims to discuss the status of the cow in Hinduism through analysing past related literatures. This paper employs content analysis method through Systematic Literature Review. Articles are collected from Scopus and Dimensions database. 16 articles are screened through the process of identification, examination and eligibility. A systematic analysis focuses on factors of cow veneration in Hinduism. Three major factors were evident in this study namely religion, economy and politic. In the first phase, veneration of the cow is more of a religious issue due to the influence of ahimsa principle introduced in Jainism. In the later phase, it is more of an economic factor where cows were protected and not killed for their benefits to mankind. Whereas now, veneration of the cow is more related to political factors in defending the status quo of the Hindus.
