“I was a boy in the care of the Prophet ﷺ and my hand used to wander all over the plate. He said to me: ‘O boy! Say the Name of Allah, eat with your right hand, and eat from what is in front of you.’”
كُنْتُ غُلاَمًا فِي حِجْرِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَكَانَتْ يَدِي تَطِيشُ فِي الصَّحْفَةِ فَقَالَ لِي يَا غُلاَمُ سَمِّ اللَّهَ وَكُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ وَكُلْ مِمَّا يَلِيكَ
I was a boy under the care of Messenger of Allah ﷺ and my hand used to go around the dish while I was eating. So Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, 'O boy! Mention the Name of Allah and eat with your right hand, and eat of the dish what is nearer to you." Since then I have applied those instructions when eating.
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عُمَرَ بْنَ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ يَقُولُ كُنْتُ غُلاَمًا فِي حَجْرِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَكَانَتْ يَدِي تَطِيشُ فِي الصَّحْفَةِ فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَا غُلاَمُ سَمِّ اللَّهَ وَكُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ وَكُلْ مِمَّا يَلِيكَ فَمَا زَالَتْ تِلْكَ طِعْمَتِي بَعْدُ
I was under the care of Messenger of Allah (way peace be upon him), and as my hand used to roam about in the dish he said to me: Boy, mention the name of Allah, and eat with your right hand and eat from what is near to you.
كُنْتُ فِي حَجْرِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَكَانَتْ يَدِي تَطِيشُ فِي الصَّحْفَةِ فَقَالَ لِي يَا غُلاَمُ سَمِّ اللَّهَ وَكُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ وَكُلْ مِمَّا يَلِيكَ
[Machine] For me, it means that the Prophet ﷺ said, "O boy, mention the name of Allah, eat with your right hand, and eat from what is in front of you. This has always been my habit, and my hand does not wander."
لِي يَعْنِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَا غُلَامُ سَمِّ اللهَ وَكُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ وَكُلْ مِمَّا يَلِيكَ فَلَمْ تَزَلْ تِلْكَ طُعْمَتِي بَعْدُ وَكَانَتْ يَدِي تَطِيشُ
“I was a boy in the care of the Prophet ﷺ and my hand used to wander all over the plate. He said to me: ‘O boy! Say the Name of Allah, eat with your right hand, and eat from what is in front of you.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3267)
بَيْنَمَا أَنَا فِي حَجْرِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَكَانَتْ يَدِي تَطِيشُ فِي الصَّحْفَةِ فَقَالَ «يَا غُلَامُ سَمِّ اللهَ وَكُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ وَكُلْ مِمَّا يَلِيكَ»
[Machine] I was a boy in the presence of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . My hand would wander in the plate, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, "O boy, when you eat, say Bismillah (in the name of Allah), eat with your right hand, and eat from what is in front of you. "My food has been blessed ever since."
كُنْتُ غُلَامًا فِي حِجْرِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَتْ يَدِي تَطِيشُ فِي الصَّحْفَةِ فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا غُلَامُ إِذَا أَكَلْتَ فَقُلْ بِسْمِ اللهِ وَكُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ وَكُلْ مِمَّا يَلِيكَ «فَمَا زَالَتْ تِلْكَ طِعْمَتِي بَعْدُ»

[Machine] I was in the room of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and my hand was inadvertently hitting the tray. He said, "O young boy, say Bismillah (In the name of Allah) and eat with your right hand, and eat from what is in front of you."
كُنْتُ فِي حِجْرِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَكَانَتْ يَدِيَّ تَطِيشُ فِي الصَّحْفَةِ فَقَالَ يَا غُلَامُ سَمِّ اللهَ وَكُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ وَكُلْ مِمَّا يَلِيكَ
