Peace,
I'm sure it does not refer to Halal Food.
I do not know the true meaning of Elkauser.

I agree with Samia's translation. When I asked my cousin why he is reading it in his prayer, my mother said 'al-kawthar' is a place in heaven and this chapter is intended for the prophet Mohammed only. I'm not sure who went to heaven and back to confirm this and even so it still doesn't make sense why one would read this when praying to God.

It means "the abundance", but a good translation, in my opinion, is the surplus of good things. Q. 1083 contrasts this by saying that the enemy (of the people, of the prophet) are "cut off" (abtar). Therefore, this means they are cut off from the abundance of good things that the believers receive from God; in other words, they receive either bad things or nothing at all.

Al-kauthar
(Historically The Most Abundant Good.)
Surah 108 1
Surely, I ask you to participate in my perpetual act of giving, which is liberal and generous. Become the burning wick that is placed on a stand (the wick of a lamp, or a candle, pulls the fuel to the flame through a capillary action. The perpetual fuel is giving of yourself, together with life experience and comprehension of the Qur'an; physically apply this concept of the universal nourishing, by the establishing of service to humanity and all creation, so you become a burning light, drawing power from this action, a power building upon itself, which is on public display to illuminate the way for others to emulate) a pleasure and delight for your deep inner self. (Soul, or true essence.)
Surah 108 2
This perpetual inner capacity, from one rearing, fostering, and nourishing you, is to separate amongst you, masters of learning and knowledge, from ones who are habitually careless.
Surah 108 3
Without doubt, for you, it is a great state, a manner of existence that results in permanence; for ones aspiring and ambitious for it. The ones who sever ties with this concept, will exist like slaves!
