“A house in which there are no dates, its people will go hungry.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3327)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «بَيْتٌ لَا تَمْرَ فِيهِ جِيَاعٌ أَهْلُهُ»  

[Machine] "It was that whenever she received a gift, she would cover it until he left immediately, then she would say, 'Indeed, I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Indeed, it is better for blessings.'"  

أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ إِذَا ثَرَدَتْ غَطَّتْهُ حَتَّى يَذْهَبَ فَوْرُهُ ثُمَّ تَقُولُ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِنَّهُ أَعْظَمُ لِلْبَرَكَةِ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ left the bathroom and was given food. It was asked to him, "before you perform ablution (wudu)?" He ﷺ said, "I intend to pray so I will perform ablution."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ خَرَجَ مِنَ الْخَلَاءِ فَطَعِمَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَتَوَضَّأَ؟ فَقَالَ ﷺ «إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أُصَلِّيَ فَأَتَوَضَّأَ»  

[Machine] To me, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Sit, my son, mention Allah's name, eat with your right hand, and eat from what is in front of you." He said, "By Allah, my food did not end."  

لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «اجْلِسْ يَا بُنَيَّ وَسَمِّ اللَّهَ وَكُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ وَكُلْ مِمَّا يَلِيكَ» قَالَ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا زَالَتْ أَكْلَتِي بَعْدُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ invited him to a meal and said, "Come, my son, eat from what is in front of you and eat with your right hand, and remember the name of Allah over it."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ دَعَاهُ إِلَى طَعَامٍ فَقَالَ «تَعَالَ يَا بُنَيَّ كُلْ مِمَّا يَلِيكَ وَكُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ وَاذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever forgets to mention Allah's name at the beginning of his meal, let him say it when he remembers, 'Bismillah' (In the name of Allah) at the beginning and at the end. For indeed, he will have a new meal and he will be protected from any impurities that may have been present."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ نَسِيَ أَنْ يَذْكُرَ اللَّهَ فِي أَوَّلِ طَعَامِهِ فَلْيَقُلْ حِينَ يَذْكُرُ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ فِي أَوَّلِهِ وَآخِرِهِ فَإِنَّهُ يَسْتَقْبِلُ طَعَامَهُ جَدِيدًا وَيَمْنَعُ الْخَبِيثَ مَا كَانَ يُصِيبُ مِنْهُ»  

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was eating food with six of his Companions when a Bedouin came and ate it all in two bites. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ‘If he had said Bismillah, it would have sufficed you (all). When any one of you eats food, let him say Bismillah, and if he forgets to say Bismillah at the beginning, let him say Bismillah fi awwalihi wa akhirih (In the Name of Allah at the beginning and at the end).’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3264)   

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَأْكُلُ طَعَامًا فِي سِتَّةِ نَفَرٍ فَجَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَأَكَلَهُ بِلُقْمَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَوْ كَانَ سَمَّى بِاللَّهِ لَكَفَاكُمْ فَإِذَا أَكَلَ أَحَدُكُمْ طَعَامًا فَلْيَذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ فَإِنْ نَسِيَ فَي أَوَّلِهِ فَلْيَقُلْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ أَوَّلَهُ وَآخِرَهُ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said: Come near, my son, mention Allah's name, eat with your right hand and eat from what is next to you. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3777)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «ادْنُ بُنَيَّ فَسَمِّ اللَّهَ وَكُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ وَكُلْ مِمَّا يَلِيكَ»  

[Machine] Abu Bakr went out with the migration to the mosque, and Umar heard about that. He said, "O Abu Bakr, what has brought you out at this hour?" Abu Bakr said, "I was not brought out except by the pangs of hunger that I feel." Umar said, "By Allah, nothing else has brought me out either." While they were in that state, the Prophet ﷺ came out to them and said, "What has brought both of you out at this hour?" They said, "By Allah, nothing has brought us out except the pangs of hunger that we feel." He said, "By the One in whose hand is my soul, nothing else has brought me out either. So get up." They continued until they reached the door of Abu Ayyub Al-Ansari. Abu Ayyub used to keep food or milk for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He delayed it that day and did not come until later. He then fed his family and went to work in his date palm tree. When they reached the door, his wife came out and said, "Welcome, O Messenger of Allah, and whoever is with you." The Prophet ﷺ said to her, "Where is Abu Ayyub?" She heard him while he was working in his date palm tree, and he came quickly and said, "Welcome, O Messenger of Allah, and whoever is with you. O Messenger of Allah, this is not the time you usually come." The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "You have spoken the truth." He took a cluster from the date palm tree containing dates, dried dates, and ripe dates, and the Prophet ﷺ said, "I intended nothing but that you gather for us from its dates." Abu Ayyub said, "O Messenger of Allah, I would like for you to eat from its dates, dried dates, and ripe dates, and I would slaughter for you along with it." The Prophet ﷺ said, "If you slaughter, do not slaughter an elderly one." He took a neck or a leg and slaughtered it. He said to his wife, "Bake bread and knead dough for us. You know how to make bread." He took the leg and cooked half of it. When the food was ready, it was placed in front of the Prophet ﷺ and his Companions. He took from the leg and placed it in a piece of bread and said, "O Abu Ayyub, deliver this to Fatimah. She has not tasted anything like this for days." Abu Ayyub took it to Fatimah, and when they all ate and were satisfied, the Prophet ﷺ said, 'Bread, meat, dates, dried dates, and ripe dates." Tears came to his eyes, and he said, "By the One in whose hand is my soul, this is the happiness about which you will be asked on the Day of Resurrection." This greatly affected his Companions, and he said, "Rather, when you attain something similar to this, strike it with your hands and say, 'In the name of Allah.' And when you are satisfied, say, 'All praise is due to Allah, who has fed us and bestowed His blessings upon us. This is sufficient for us.'" When he stood up, he said to Abu Ayyub, "Come to us tomorrow." And no one came to him without him wanting to reward them. Umar said, "Indeed, the Prophet ﷺ ordered you to come to him tomorrow." So he went to him the next day, and he gave him his wife as a gift and said, "O Abu Ayyub, be kind to her, for we have not seen anything but goodness from her as long as she has been with us." When Abu Ayyub brought her from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , he said, "I find no better recommendation from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ than to free her, so I freed her."  

خَرَجَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ بِالْهَاجِرَةِ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَسَمِعَ بِذَلِكَ عُمَرُ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ مَا أَخْرَجَكَ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ؟ قَالَ مَا أَخْرَجَنِي إِلَّا مَا أَجِدُ مِنْ حَاقِّ الْجُوعِ قَالَ وَأَنَا وَاللَّهِ مَا أَخْرَجَنِي غَيْرُهُ فَبَيْنَمَا هُمَا كَذَلِكَ إِذْ خَرَجَ عَلَيْهِمَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «مَا أَخْرَجَكُمَا هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ؟ » قَالَا وَاللَّهِ مَا أَخْرَجَنَا إِلَّا مَا نَجِدُ فِي بُطُونِنَا مِنْ حَاقِّ الْجُوعِ قَالَ «وَأَنَا وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا أَخْرَجَنِي غَيْرُهُ فَقُومَا» فَانْطَلَقُوا حَتَّى أَتَوْا بَابَ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ وَكَانَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ يَدَّخِرُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ طَعَامًا أَوْ لَبَنًا فَأَبْطَأَ عَنْهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ فَلَمْ يَأْتِ لِحِينِهِ فَأَطْعَمَهُ لِأَهْلِهِ وَانْطَلَقَ إِلَى نَخْلِهِ يَعْمَلُ فِيهِ فَلَمَّا انْتَهَوْا إِلَى الْبَابِ خَرَجَتِ امْرَأَتُهُ فَقَالَتْ مَرْحَبًا بِنَبِيِّ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَبِمَنْ مَعَهُ فَقَالَ لَهَا نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ «فَأَيْنَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ؟ » فَسَمِعَهُ وَهُوَ يَعْمَلُ فِي نَخْلٍ لَهُ فَجَاءَ يَشْتَدُّ فَقَالَ مَرْحَبًا بِنَبِيِّ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَبِمَنْ مَعَهُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ لَيْسَ بِالْحِينِ الَّذِي كُنْتَ تَجِيءُ فِيهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «صَدَقْتَ» قَالَ فَانْطَلَقَ فَقَطَعَ عِذْقًا مِنَ النَّخْلِ فِيهِ مِنْ كُلِّ التَّمْرِ وَالرُّطَبِ وَالْبُسْرِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مَا أَرَدْتُ إِلَى هَذَا أَلَا جَنَيْتَ لَنَا مِنْ تَمْرِهِ» فَقَالَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ أَحْبَبْتُ أَنْ تَأْكُلَ مِنْ تَمْرِهِ وَرُطَبِهِ وَبُسْرِهِ وَلَأَذْبَحَنَّ لَكَ مَعَ هَذَا قَالَ «إِنْ ذَبَحْتَ فَلَا تَذْبَحَنَّ ذَاتَ دَرٍّ» فَأَخَذَ عَنَاقًا أَوْ جَدْيًا فَذَبَحَهُ وَقَالَ لِامْرَأَتِهِ اخْبِزِي وَاعْجِنِي لَنَا وَأَنْتِ أَعْلَمُ بِالْخَبْزِ فَأَخَذَ الْجَدْيَ فَطَبَخَهُ وَشَوَى نِصْفَهُ فَلَمَّا أَدْرَكَ الطَّعَامُ وُضِعَ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابِهِ فَأَخَذَ مِنَ الْجَدْيِ فَجَعَلَهُ فِي رَغِيفٍ فَقَالَ «يَا أَبَا أَيُّوبَ أَبْلِغْ بِهَذَا فَاطِمَةَ فَإِنَّهَا لَمْ تُصِبْ مِثْلَ هَذَا مُنْذُ أَيَّامٍ» فَذَهَبَ بِهِ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ إِلَى فَاطِمَةَ فَلَمَّا أَكَلُوا وَشَبِعُوا قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «خُبْزٌ وَلَحْمٌ وَتَمْرٌ وَبُسْرٌ وَرُطَبٌ» وَدَمِعَتْ عَيْنَاهُ «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ إِنَّ هَذَا لَهُوَ النَّعِيمُ الَّذِي تُسْأَلُونَ عَنْهُ قَالَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا {ثُمَّ لَتُسْأَلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ النَّعِيمِ} فَهَذَا النَّعِيمُ الَّذِي تُسْأَلُونَ عَنْهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ» فَكَبُرَ ذَلِكَ عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ «بَلْ إِذَا أَصَبْتُمْ مِثْلَ هَذَا فَضَرَبْتُمْ بِأَيْدِيكُمْ فَقُولُوا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَإِذَا شَبِعْتُمْ فَقُولُوا الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي هُوَ أَشْبَعَنَا وَأَنْعَمَ عَلَيْنَا وَأَفْضَلَ فَإِنَّ هَذَا كَفَافٌ بِهَا» فَلَمَّا نَهَضَ قَالَ لِأَبِي أَيُّوبَ «ائْتِنَا غَدًا» وَكَانَ لَا يَأْتِي إِلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ مَعْرُوفًا إِلَّا أَحَبَّ أَنْ يُجَازِيَهُ قَالَ وَإِنَّ أَبَا أَيُّوبَ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَمَرَكَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَهَ غَدًا فَأَتَاهُ مِنَ الْغَدِ فَأَعْطَاهُ وَلِيدَتَهُ فَقَالَ «يَا أَبَا أَيُّوبَ اسْتَوْصِ بِهَا خَيْرًا فَإِنَّا لَمْ نَرَ إِلَّا خَيْرًا مَا دَامَتْ عِنْدَنَا» فَلَمَّا جَاءَ بِهَا أَبُو أَيُّوبَ مِنْ عِنْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَا أَجِدُ لَوَصِيَّةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ خَيْرًا مِنْ أَنْ أَعْتِقَهَا فَأَعْتَقَهَا  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say after finishing his food, "Praise be to Allah, much abundant and pure and blessed praise. It is not enough nor is it temporarily stored, and none can be self-sufficient without it."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ عِنْدَ انْقِضَاءِ الطَّعَامِ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ حَمْدًا كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ غَيْرَ مَكْفِيٍّ وَلَا مُوَدَّعٍ وَلَا مُسْتَغْنًى عَنْهُ»  

[Machine] We witnessed a meal at the house of Abdul Alaa, and Abu Umamah was with us. Abu Umamah said, after finishing the food, "When the meal is over, I do not like to be a speaker. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say after finishing the food, 'Praise be to Allah, abundant, pure and blessed praise. A praise that is not temporary or unnecessary.'"  

شَهِدْنَا طَعَامًا فِي مَنْزِلِ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى وَمَعَنَا أَبُو أُمَامَةَ فَقَالَ أَبُو أُمَامَةَ عِنْدَ انْقِضَاءِ الطَّعَامِ مَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَكُونَ خَطِيبًا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ عِنْدَ انْقِضَاءِ الطَّعَامِ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ حَمْدًا كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ غَيْرَ مُوَدَّعٍ وَلَا مُسْتَغْنًى عَنْهُ»  

[Machine] A man from the Ansar invited the Prophet ﷺ. He said, "So we went with him, and when he ate and washed his hands, he said, 'Praise be to Allah who has given us food and has not made us in need of anyone's provision. He guided us, fed us and quenched our thirst. Every good adversity has been replaced by something better. Praise be to Allah who fed us with food and gave us drink from beverages, clothed us from nakedness, guided us from misguidance, illuminated us from blindness, and favored us over many of His creation. Praise be to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds.'"  

دَعَا رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ فَانْطَلَقْنَا مَعَهُ فَلَمَّا طَعِمَ وَغَسَلَ يَدَهُ قَالَ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَطْعَمَ وَلَا يُطْعَمُ مَنَّ عَلَيْنَا فَهَدَانَا وَأَطْعَمَنَا وَسَقَانَا وَكُلُّ بَلَاءٍ حَسَنٍ أَبْلَانَا الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَطْعَمَ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ وَسَقَى مِنَ الشَّرَابِ وَكَسَا مِنَ الْعُرْيِ وَهَدَى مِنَ الضَّلَالَةِ وَبَصَّرَ مِنَ الْعَمَى وَفَضَّلَ عَلَى كَثِيرٍ مِمَّنْ خَلَقَ تَفْضِيلًا الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ»  

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ate or drank, he said: "Praise be to Allah Who has given food and drink and made it easy to swallow, and provided an exit for it. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3851)  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ كَانَ إِذَا أَكَلَ أَوْ شَرِبَ قَالَ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَطْعَمَ وَسَقَى وَسَوَّغَهُ وَجَعَلَ لَهُ مَخْرَجًا»  

Ibn ‘Abbas said that his maternal aunt presented to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ clarified butter, lizards and cottage cheese. He ate from clarified butter and cheese, but left the lizard abominably. It was eaten on the food cloth of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Had it been unlawful, it would not have been eaten on the food cloth of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3793)   

أَنَّ خَالَتَهُ أَهْدَتْ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ سَمْنًا وَأَقِطًا وَأَضُبًّا فَأَكَلَ مِنَ السَّمْنِ وَالْأَقِطِ وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ مِنَ الْأَضُبِّ تَقَذُّرًا قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ «أُكِلَ عَلَى مَائِدَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَلَوْ كَانَ حَرَامًا لَمْ يُؤْكَلْ عَلَيْهَا»  

[Machine] We entered upon Abu Musa, and in front of him was a chicken that he was eating from it. We said, "Do you eat from it?" He said, "I ate it from the table of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ."  

دَخَلْنَا عَلَى أَبِي مُوسَى وَبَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ دَجَاجَةٌ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهَا قُلْنَا تَأْكُلُ مِنْهَا؟ فَقَالَ أَكَلْتُهُ عَلَى مَائِدَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ «  

The sister of my mother Umm Hufaid presented to Messenger of Allah ﷺ clarified butter (ghee), cheese and some lizards. He ate out of the clarified butter and cheese, but left the lizard finding no liking for it. But it was eaten on the table of Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Had it been forbidden (haram), it could not be eaten on the table of Messenger of Allah ﷺ. (Using translation from Muslim 1947)   

«أَهْدَتْ أُمُّ حُفَيْدٍ خَالَتِي بِنْتُ الْحَارِثِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ سَمْنًا وَأَقِطًا وَأَضُبًّا فَدَعَا بِهِنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَكَلَ عَلَى مَائِدَتِهِ وَتَرَكَهُنَّ كَالْمُتَقَذِّرِ لَهُنَّ وَلَوْ كَانَ حَرَامًا مَا أُكِلَتْ عَلَى مَائِدَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَلَا أَمَرَ بِأَكْلِهِنَّ»  

[Machine] They said, "O Messenger of Allah, we eat but do not feel satisfied." He said, "Do you gather together for your food or eat separately?" They replied, "We eat separately." He said, "Gather together for your food and invoke the name of Allah, and He will bless it for you."  

قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا نَأْكُلُ وَلَا نَشْبَعُ قَالَ «تَجْتَمِعُونَ عَلَى طَعَامِكُمْ أَوْ تَتَفَرَّقُونَ؟ » قَالُوا نَتَفَرَّقُ قَالَ « اجْتَمِعُوا عَلَى طَعَامِكُمْ وَاذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللَّهِ يُبَارَكْ لَكُمْ»  

Jabir reported that Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade that a man should eat with the left hand or walk with one sandal or wrap himself completely leaving no opening for the arms (to draw out) or support himself when sitting with a single garment wrapped round his knees which may expose his private parts. (Using translation from Muslim 2099a)  

«أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَهَى أَنْ يَأْكُلَ الرَّجُلُ بِشِمَالِهِ أَوْ يَمْشِيَ فِي نَعْلٍ وَاحِدَةٍ وَأَنْ يَشْتَمِلَ الصَّمَّاءَ أَوْ يَحْتَبِيَ فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ كَاشِفًا عَنْ فَرْجِهِ»  

When any one of you intends to eat (meal), he should eat with his right hand. and when he (intends) to drink he should drink with his right hand, for the Satan eats with his left hand and drinks with his left hand. (Using translation from Muslim 2020a)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا أَكَلَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَأْكُلْ بِيَمِينِهِ وَإِذَا شَرِبَ فَلْيَشْرَبْ بِيَمِينِهِ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَأْكُلُ بِشِمَالِهِ وَيَشْرَبُ بِشِمَالِهِ»  

[Machine] "That the Prophet ﷺ used to use his right hand for his food and his left hand for everything else."  

«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَجْعَلُ يَمِينَهُ لِطَعَامِهِ وَيَجْعَلُ شِمَالَهُ لِمَا سِوَى ذَلِكَ»  

[Machine] "That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade giving or taking anything with the left hand, and forbade breathing into the vessel when drinking."  

«أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَهَى أَنْ يُعْطِيَ الرَّجُلُ بِشِمَالِهِ شَيْئًا أَوْ يَأْخُذَ بِهَا وَنَهَى أَنْ يَتَنَفَّسَ فِي إِنَائِهِ إِذَا شَرِبَ»  

[Machine] On the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he said, "None of you should eat with his left hand, nor drink with it, as indeed the Satan eats and drinks with his left hand." And Nafi' added, "And neither should you take with your left hand, nor give with it."  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا يَأْكُلْ أَحَدُكُمْ بِشِمَالِهِ وَلَا يَشْرَبْ بِهَا فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَأْكُلُ بِهَا وَيَشْرَبُ بِهَا» وَزَادَ فِيهِ نَافِعٌ «وَلَا يَأْخُذَنَّ بِهَا وَلَا يُعْطَيْنَ بِهَا»  

[Machine] About the Prophetﷺ he said, "The example of a believer is like that of a palm tree, whatever it eats, it is wholesome, and whatever it sheds, it is beneficial."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ مَثَلُ النَّخْلَةِ إِنْ أَكَلَتْ أَكَلَتْ طَيِّبًا وَإِنْ وَضَعَتْ وَضَعَتْ طَيِّبًا»  

[Machine] "I was with the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ , and then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent to us a basket of fresh dates. The basket was placed between us, and we started eating from it while feeling hungry. Our companions, when someone paired up with another, would say to their partner, "I have paired up, so let us pair up."  

«كُنْتُ فِي أَصْحَابِ الصُّفَّةِ فَبَعَثَ إِلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِتَمْرِ عَجْوَةٍ فَكُبَّتْ بَيْنَنَا فَجَعَلْنَا نَأْكُلُ الثِّنْتَيْنِ مِنَ الْجُوعِ وَجَعَلَ أَصْحَابُنَا إِذَا قَرَنَ أَحَدُهُمْ قَالَ لِصَاحِبِهِ إِنِّي قَدْ قَرَنْتُ فَأَقْرِنُوا»  

“The believer eats with one intestine and the disbeliever eats with seven intestines.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3256)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «الْمُؤْمِنُ يَأْكُلُ فِي مِعًى وَاحِدٍ وَالْكَافِرُ يَأْكُلُ فِي سَبْعَةِ أَمْعَاءٍ»  

A believer drinks In one intestine whereas a non-believer drinks in seven intestines. (Using translation from Muslim 2063)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ جَاءَهُ ضَيْفٌ كَافِرٌ فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِشَاةٍ فَحُلِبَتْ فَشَرِبَ حِلَابَهَا ثُمَّ أُخْرَى فَشَرِبَ حِلَابَهَا ثُمَّ أُخْرَى فَشَرِبَ حِلَابَهَا حَتَّى شَرِبَ حِلَابَ سَبْعِ شِيَاهٍ ثُمَّ أَصْبَحَ فَأَسْلَمَ فَأَمَرَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِشَاةٍ فَحُلِبَتْ فَشَرِبَ حِلَابَهَا ثُمَّ أَمَرَ لَهُ بِأُخْرَى فَلَمْ يَسْتَتِمَّهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ يَشْرَبُ فِي مِعًى وَاحِدٍ وَالْكَافِرُ يَشْرَبُ فِي سَبْعَةِ أَمْعَاءٍ»  

[Machine] I have heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "A human does not fill any vessel worse than his stomach. It is sufficient for the son of Adam to eat a few mouthfuls that will keep him upright. But if he must (eat more), then one third for his food, one third for his drink and one third for his breath."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَا مَلَأَ آدَمَيٌّ وِعَاءً شَرًّا مِنْ بَطْنٍ حَسْبُكَ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ لُقَيْمَاتٌ يُقِمْنَ صُلْبَكَ فَإِنْ كَانَ لَا بُدَّ فَثُلُثٌ طَعَامٌ وَثُلُثٌ شَرَابٌ وَثُلُثٌ نَفَسٌ»  

“The food of one person is sufficient for two, the food of two is sufficient for four, and the food for four is sufficient for eight.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3254)   

سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «طَعَامُ الْوَاحِدِ يَكْفِي الِاثْنَيْنِ وَطَعَامُ الِاثْنَيْنِ يَكْفِي الْأَرْبَعَةَ وَطَعَامُ الْأَرْبَعَةِ يَكْفِي الثَّمَانِيَةَ»  

I do not eat while reclining. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3769)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَمَّا أَنَا فَلَا آكُلُ مُتَّكِئًا»  

The Prophet ﷺ was brought a piece of cheese in Tabuk. He called for a knife, mentioned Allah's name and cut it. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3819)  

«أُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِجُبْنَةٍ مِنْ تَبُوكَ فَدَعَا بِسِكِّينٍ فَسَمَّى وَقَطَعَ»  

[Machine] "About the Messenger of Allahﷺ he met Zaid ibn Amr ibn Nufail in the valley of Baladah. The Messenger of Allahﷺ offered him a dish containing food, but he refused to eat and said, 'We do not eat from animals that are slaughtered on your altars, nor do we eat except from that on which the name of Allah is mentioned.'"  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ لَقِيَ زَيْدَ بْنَ عَمْرِو بْنِ نُفَيْلٍ بِأَسْفَلَ بَلْدَحَ فَقَدَّمَ إِلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ سُفْرَةً فِيهَا طَعَامٌ فَأَبَى أَنْ يَأْكُلَ وَقَالَ «إِنَّا لَا نَأْكُلُ مِمَّا تَذْبَحُونَ عَلَى أَنْصَابِكُمْ وَلَا نَأْكُلُ إِلَّا مِمَّا ذُكِرَ اسْمُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ»  

“At the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ we used to eat while walking, and drink while standing up.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3301)   

«كُنَّا نَشْرَبُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ قِيَامٌ وَنَأْكُلُ وَنَحْنُ نَسْعَى»  

[Machine] On the authority of Abu Raafi', the adoptive son of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , who said: "I was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when he passed by a pot containing some meat in which people were cooking. Some of them handed him a shoulder [of the meat], and he ate it while he was standing, then he performed prayer without performing ablution."  

عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ مَوْلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «كُنْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَمَرَّ بِقَدْرٍ لِبَعْضِ أَهْلِهِ فِيهَا لَحْمٌ يُطْبَخُ فَنَاوَلَهُ بَعْضُهُمْ مِنْهَا كَتِفًا فَأَكَلَهَا وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ ثُمَّ صَلَّى وَلَمْ يَتَوَضَّأْ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Blessings descend in the middle of the food, so eat from its edges."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «الْبَرَكَةُ تَنْزِلُ وَسَطَ الطَّعَامِ فَكُلُوا مِنْ حَافَتَيْهِ»  

[Machine] "That the Prophet ﷺ used to combine watermelon with dates."  

«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَجْمَعُ الْبِطِّيخَ بِالرُّطَبِ»  

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to eat dates with melon.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3326)   

«كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَأْكُلُ الْبِطِّيخَ بِالرُّطَبِ» *  

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ used to eat pot roast or watermelon with dates." "Doubt from Ahmad"  

«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَأْكُلُ الطَّبِيخَ أَوِ الْبِطِّيخَ بِالرُّطَبِ» « الشَّكُّ مِنْ أَحْمَدَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If a morsel of food falls, one of you should remove any dirt from it and eat it, and not leave it for Satan. And wipe your plates, for blessing cannot be determined in which of your meals it will be found."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا سَقَطَتْ لُقْمَةُ أَحَدِكُمْ فَلْيُمِطِ الْأَذَى عَنْهَا وَلْيَأْكُلْهَا وَلَا يَدَعْهَا لِلشَّيْطَانِ وَأَسْلِتُوا الصَّحْفَةَ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يُدْرَى فِي أَيِّ طَعَامِكُمْ تَكُونُ الْبَرَكَةُ»  

when a fly alights in anyone’s vessel, he should plunge it all in, for in one of its wings there is a disease, and in the other is a cure. It prevents the wing of it is which there is a cure, so plunge it all in (the vessel). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3844)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا وَقَعَ الذُّبَابُ فِي إِنَاءِ أَحَدِكُمْ فَلْيَغْمِسْهُ فَإِنَّ فِي أَحَدِ جَنَاحَيْهِ دَاءٌ وَفِي الْآخَرِ شِفَاءٌ وَإِنَّهُ يَتَّقِي بِجَنَاحِهِ الَّذِي فِيهِ الدَّاءُ فَلْيَغْمِسْهُ كُلَّهُ ثُمَّ لِيَنْزِعْهُ»  

[Machine] The translation of the provided Arabic phrase into English is as follows: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to eat with three fingers and then lick them."  

«كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَأْكُلُ بِثَلَاثِ أَصَابِعَ ثُمَّ يَلْعَقُهُنَّ»  

[Machine] "When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to eat, he would lick his three fingers."  

«أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا أَكَلَ لَعِقَ أَصَابِعَهُ الثَّلَاثَ»  

[Machine] He heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "If one of you drops a morsel of food from his hand, let him remove any dirt from it and eat it. He should not leave it for the devil, nor should he wipe his hand with a cloth until he licks his hand, for a person does not know in which of his foods the blessing lies, and the devil lurks upon people or upon a person in everything, even when he is eating or his food. He should not lift the plate until he licks it or allows someone else to lick it, for indeed there is blessings in the last part of the food."  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِذَا طَعِمَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَسَقَطَتْ لُقْمَتُهُ مِنْ يَدِهِ فَلْيُمِطْ مَا رَابَهُ مِنْهَا وَلْيَطْعَمْهَا وَلَا يَدَعْهَا لِلشَّيْطَانِ وَلَا يَمْسَحْ يَدَهُ بِالْمِنْدِيلِ حَتَّى يَلْعَقَ يَدَهُ فَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَا يَدْرِي فِي أَيِّ طَعَامِهِ يُبَارَكُ لَهُ وَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَرْصُدُ النَّاسَ أَوِ الْإِنْسَانَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ حَتَّى عِنْدَ مَطْعَمِهِ أَوْ طَعَامِهِ وَلَا يَرْفَعُ الصَّحْفَةَ حَتَّى يَلْعَقَهَا أَوْ يُلْعِقَهَا فَإِنَّ فِي آخِرِ الطَّعَامِ الْبَرَكَةَ»  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'If dinner is ready and the Iqamah for prayer is said, then start with dinner first."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 853)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا وُضِعَ الْعَشَاءُ وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ فَابْدَءُوا بِالْعَشَاءِ»  

[Machine] "From the Prophet ﷺ , the following is similar to him."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مِثْلَهُ  

[Machine] He told me that Ibn Umar used to pass by us and say, "Do not compete with each other, for the Prophet ﷺ forbade reciting the Quran except with the permission of one's brother."  

أَخْبَرَنِي قَالَ كَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ يَمُرُّ بِنَا فَيَقُولُ «لَا تُقَارِنُوا فَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ نَهَى عَنِ الْقِرَانِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَسْتَأْذِنَ الرَّجُلُ أَخَاهُ»  

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ who said, "Whoever eats dates with a group of people, let him not combine it, but if he wants to do so, let him seek their permission. If they give him permission, then he may do so."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ أَكَلَ مَعَ قَوْمٍ مِنْ تَمْرٍ فَلَا يَقْرِنْ فَإِنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ فَلْيَسْتَأْذِنْهُمْ فَإِنْ أَذِنُوا لَهُ فَلْيَفْعَلْ»  

“The believer eats with one intestine and the disbeliever eats with seven intestines.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3256)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «الْمُسْلِمُ يَأْكُلُ فِي مِعًى وَاحِدٍ وَالْكَافِرُ يَأْكُلُ فِي سَبْعَةِ أَمْعَاءٍ»  

“The believer eats with one intestine and the disbeliever eats with seven intestines.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3256)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «الْمُؤْمِنُ يَأْكُلُ فِي مِعًى وَاحِدٍ وَالْكَافِرُ يَأْكُلُ فِي سَبْعَةِ أَمْعَاءٍ»  

“The Messenger of Allah 9saw) used to like sweets and honey.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3323)   

«كَانَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُحِبُّ الْحَلْوَاءَ وَالْعَسَلَ»  

[Machine] Ayoub and I, regarding the narration of Al-Qasim, I memorize from me regarding the narration of Abu Qilabah. He said, "We were with Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari, so he called for a table, and on it was chicken meat. He said, 'I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ eating from it.'"  

أَيُّوبُ وَأَنَا لِحَدِيثِ الْقَاسِمِ أَحْفَظُ مِنِّي لِحَدِيثِ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ قَالَ كُنَّا عِنْدَ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ فَدَعَا بِمَائِدَةٍ وَعَلَيْهَا لَحْمُ دَجَاجٍ وَقَالَ «رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ»
