I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "A human being does not fill any vessel worse than the stomach. It is enough for the son of Adam to have a few bites to keep his back upright. But if his appetite overcomes him, then a third is for food, a third for drink, and a third for breath.”

ابن ماجة:٣٣٤٩حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ الْحِمْصِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَتْنِي أُمِّي عَنْ أُمِّهَا أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتِ الْمِقْدَامَ بْنَ مَعْدِي كَرِبَ يَقُولُ

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: «مَا مَلأَ آدَمِيٌّ وِعَاءً شَرًّا مِنْ بَطْنٍ: حَسْبُ الآدَمِيِّ لُقَيْمَاتٌ يُقِمْنَ صُلْبَهُ. فَإِنْ غَلَبَتِ الآدَمِيَّ نَفْسُهُ، فَثُلُثٌ لِلطَّعَامِ وَثُلُثٌ لِلشَّرَابِ وَثُلُثٌ لِلنَّفَسِ».

ibnmajah:3350ʿAmr b. Rāfiʿ > ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz b. ʿAbdullāh Abū Yaḥyá > Yaḥyá al-Bakkāʾ > Ibn ʿUmar

“A man burped in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ and he said: ‘Withhold your burps from us! For the most hungry of you on the Day of Resurrection will be those who most ate their fill in this world.’”

ابن ماجة:٣٣٥٠حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ رَافِعٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَبُو يَحْيَى عَنْ يَحْيَى الْبَكَّاءِ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ

تَجَشَّأَ رَجُلٌ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ كُفَّ جُشَاءَكَ عَنَّا فَإِنَّ أَطْوَلَكُمْ جُوعًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَكْثَرُكُمْ شِبَعًا فِي دَارِ الدُّنْيَا

ibnmajah:3351Dāwud b. Sulaymān al-ʿAskarī > Muḥammad b. al-Ṣabbāḥ

“I heard Salman, when he was forced to eat food, say: ‘It is sufficient for me that I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: The people who most eat their fill in this world will be the most hungry on the Day of Resurrection.’”

ابن ماجة:٣٣٥١حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْعَسْكَرِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الثَّقَفِيُّ عَنْ مُوسَى الْجُهَنِيِّ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ عَنْ عَطِيَّةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَلْمَانَ وَأُكْرِهَ عَلَى طَعَامٍ يَأْكُلُهُ فَقَالَ حَسْبِي إِنِّي

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ شِبَعًا فِي الدُّنْيَا أَطْوَلُهُمْ جُوعًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ
