[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, indeed we eat and do not feel satiated." He said, "Perhaps you separate from your food, come together upon it, and mention the name of Allah, so that He may bless it for you." We brought this narration as a witness.

The Companions of the Prophet ﷺ said: Messenger of Allah ﷺ we eat but we are not satisfied. He said: Perhaps you eat separately. They replied: Yes. He said: If you gather together at your food and mention Allah's name, you will be blessed in it. Abu Dawud said: If you are invited to a wedding feast before you, do not take it until the owner of the house (i.e. the host) allows you (to eat).

“O Messenger of Allah, we eat and do not feel full.” He said: “Perhaps you eat separately?” They said: “Yes.” He said: “Gather to eat together, and mention the Name of Allah over it, then it will be blessed for you.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3286)
