We All wanna eat... but how?
Assalamu'Alaykum
Courtesy: From ad-Dawal ila-Allah
These rewards and blessings can be attained only by those keen to imbibe the Guidance and Example (Sunnah) of the Prophet Muhammad (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) into every mode of their lives, seeking thereby none but the Face of Allaah. For such people, their whole lives become 'Ebadah (worship). Even the act of eating and drinking upon which all living things depend can become acts of 'Ebadah. Thus, by acquainting ourselves with the Sunnah of eating and drinking we too can turn this mundane exercise into an act of worship and a source of blessing, Insha'Allaah!!
The Etiquettes of Eating
1] How to Begin
When a Muslim begins to eat, he should begin with the name of Allaah. As the Prophet Muhammad (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) said: 'When one of you eats, he should mention Allah's name (i.e. say 'Bismillah); if he forgets to mention Allah's name at the beginning, he should say (when he remembers): I begin in the name of Allah at the beginning and at the end of it ( Bismillah awwalahu wa Akhirahoo)." [2]
The Prophet (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) explained that shaitan partakes in the food if the name of Allaah is not recited at the start of eating. However if one forgets in the beginning and then remembers and says the aforementioned du'aa shaitan is made to vomit out what he has eaten. [3]
2] The Manners of Eating
The best manner in which to eat food is with the fingers. The Companion, lbn Ka'ab ibn Maalik reported that he saw the Messenger (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) eating with three fingers and when he finished, he would lick them. [4] Sadly nowadays, the Muslims are choosing to imitate the disbelievers rather than the Prophet (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) and are choosing to eat with knives and forks rather than the finger's. Although it is not at all forbidden (haraam) to eat with a Knife and fork, to con*sider this a better and more cultured or civilized way to eat is definitely wrong, since this is to consider someone else's way to be superior to that of the Prophet's. It should also be men*tioned that if one does choose to eat with a knife and fork, then they should make sure that the fork is in the right and not in the left hand as is the convention with the disbelievers. This is because to eat with the left hand is forbidden. The Prophet, (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) said: "Do not eat with your left hand for shaitaan eats with his left hand," [5]
Another thing which the Prophet (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) taught us about the man*ners of eating is that we should always eat from what is near*est to us and not from the middle of the plate. The reason for this is that the blessings come down upon the food in its mid*dle, therefore it should be left to last. [6]
3] The Manners of Sitting whilst Eating.
It would probably come as no surprise to us to learn that unlike the arrogant manner traditionally associated with the Greeks and Romans, the Prophet (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) would never eat from a reclining position.[7]
His whole life was a model of modesty and humility and this was no less in his manner of eating. The Companion Anas, radhi Allahu Anhu' each reported that he saw Allaah's Messenger squatting and eating dates.[8] Other times, the Prophet (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) would sit on his knees, as reported by 'Abdullaah ibn Busr who said that the Prophet was sitting on his knees upon which a bedouin said: 'What is this sitting?' The Prophet (sallallahu alahi wa-sallam) replied, "Allaah has made me a respectable servant and He did not make me an obstinate tyrant. [9]
4] Don't Criticize Food:Aboo Hurairah, radhiAllahu 'anhu reported that the Prophet (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) never found fault with food. If he liked it, he would eat it, but if he disliked it, he just left it.
This is how our Prophet was. Yet if we look to ourselves today, we find that we are ever ready to criticize whatever we find on our plate. This is extreme ingratitude to Allaah on our part and next time we think of complaining about food or maybe moaning that 'there's nothing to eat' even though our fridges are full, we should spare a thought for all those people both Muslim and non-Muslims who don't know where their next meal is coming from. So we should instead be grateful as instructed by Allaah:
"0 You who believe! Eat of the good things that we have provided for you and be grateful to Allaah, if it is He you worship." [al-Baqarah(2): 17)
5] DON'T LEAVE FOOD FOR SHAITAAN
As Muslms we must be aware that shaitaan is around us wher*ever we are and whatever we are doing. Even when we are eating shaitaan is in our presence, waiting to grasp any oppor*tunity he can to fill his belly. This is why the Prophet, (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) commanded us never to waste food, because food that we waste is eaten by shaitaan. He (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) said: "The shaitaan is present with everyone of you in everything he does; he is even present when he eats food, so if any on of you drops a mouthful, he should remove away anything filthy on it and eat it and not leave it for the devil; and when he finishe, he should lick his fingers for he does not know in what portion of his food the blessing ties." [11]
So here, the Prophet (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) enumerated another reason why we should not waste food i.e. we may deprive ourselves of the blessings which are contained n the food. this should be sufficient encouragement fares to appreciate the value of food and not waste it.
6] DON'T EAT TOO MUCH
One of the worst habits we nave adopted as a result of our relatively luxurious lifestyle is the habit of overeating and not showing any restraint in that. How many times can we think of where we have eaten so much that we can barely breathe, or where we can feel the food coming up to our throats?! This eating pattern does not befit the Muslim, who should do all things in moderation, including his eating. The Prophet, (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) said: "A Believer eats in one intestine, whereas a non-believer eats in seven intestines"[12]
Therefore it is not for us to eat till we are completely satiated; rather we should eat such that the hunger goes but there is still room for more.
7] AFTER EATING
When we have finished eating, we should always remember Allaah and be grateful to Him, for He is ar-Razzaaq, the Provider and our Sustainer We should express this gratitude in the manner in which the Prophet taught us. He said: "One who has eaten some food and then says: 'AlI praise is for Allaah, who has given me this (food to eat] and provided me without any effort or power on my part', he will have his sins forgiven. (Alhamdulillaahil-lazee at'amanaa haadha warazaqeenee min ghairi hawlin minnee wala quwwah)." [13]
SubhaanAllaah! The reward for just saying this short du'aa is so great, too great to neglect. Can we afford to miss out on such opportunities of Allaah's Mercy and Forgiveness?
8] A MEANS OF DRAWING CLOSER TO ALLAAH
The ahaadeeth mentioned here only cover some of the Islamic etiquettes of eating which the Messenger Muhammad (sallalahu alaihi wa-sallam) taught us. Many more hadeeth on this subject are to be found in the books of hadeeth such as Saheeh al-Bukharee, Saheeh Muslim and others. But just a few narra*tions cited here give us some indication of the attention that the Companions paid to even the smallest details of the prophet's Sunnah (example). Many of us today may consider such matters to be 'trivial' or 'insignificant,' but we find the Companions did not take these matters lightly. They consid*ered such details important enough to preserve through careful transmission which their successors meticulously recorded in the books of hadeeth so that they could be read by genera*tions to come. It is up to us whether we want to benefit from the knowledge they carried for us or not.
So during this blessed month of Ramadhan, when we take the suhoor (the predawn meal) and break our fasts, we have an excellent opportunity to transform an everyday practice of eating and drinking into an act of worship and a source of blessing for us. Every mouthful of food we take will serve as a reminder of Alaah's great favour upon us and His Mercy and this in turn will cause us to earn favour with Allah, for the Prophet (sallalahu alaihi wa-sallam) said: "Indeed Allah is pleased with His servant who, when he eats a morsel, praises Him for it, or drinks a sip and then praises Him for it." [14]
May Allaah grant us the ability to become of His thankful servants. Aameen.
FOOTNOTES
[1] There is a common misconception that to wash ones hands before eating is from Sunnah. This is based on the hadeeth which alleges that the Prophet (sallalahu alaihi wa-sallam) said: The blessing of the food is in washing the hands before it and after it. [Ahmed, Aboo Dawood and others] It should be known however that this hadeeth is daef (week) according to Aboo Dawood. Imaam Ahmad, at-Tirmidhee and others. Infect some scholar went as far As to say that this practice was disliked since it was a practice of the Jews and only if there was a reason to wash them was it not disliked. The point is that washing the hands before the meal contains no added reward since it is not from the Sunnah, although there is no harm in doing as if one needs to. [Up]

Etiquette of VISITORS
The best action of Islam is to feed (the poor).
Rasullullah sallAllâhu alayhi wasallam has said: "The person who has faith in Allâh and in the hereafter, it is necessary for him to be polite to his guests." (Bukhari)
One remains a guest for three days, thereafter it is sadaqah. (The host must entertain his guest for three days. More than that whatever entertainment is made, will be regarded as sadaqah).
One should entertain ones guest with special food for one day and one night. (Bukhari)
A guest should not remain at the place of the host for such a long time that would either incovenience or disgust him.
Whoever is invited and does not accept has disobeyed Allâh and His Rasul sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
Whoever enters (a house) without invitation (for meals), enters as a burglar and departs as a bandit. (Abû Dawûd)

Etiquette of visting the sick
These actions create love of bonding within the Muslims. Furthermore, the Muslims in essence are like one body as mentioned in an authentic narration of Rasulullah . If one part of the body hurts the entire body hurts. Our consolation will not take away the sickness from our Muslim brother or sister, but it may lift his spirits and make him happy.
Just as our Master Rasulaullah has guided us on how to conduct ourselves in every sphere of our lives, he has also guided us regarding the method of visiting the sick.

Etiquettes Of Social Life
The Five Branches of the Sharee'ah
The Sharee'ah consists of following five branches or parts:
Aqaa'id (Beliefs): e.g. beliefs in the Oneness of Allah Ta'aala and the Risaalat (Prophethood) of Rasoolullaah sallallahu alayhi wasallam
A'maal (Righteous deeds): e.g. Salaat, Sawm.
Mu'aamalaat (Transactions, Contracts): e.g. trade and commerce.
Akhlaaq (Moral character): e.g. humility, generosity, etc.
Husn-e-Mu'aasharat (Beautified social conduct): i.e. good relationship with people, e.g. abstention from acts which cause others inconvenience, such as disturbing a person in his sleep.
Of the above five constitutional branches of Islaam, Muslims in general nowadays regard only two branches as being integral parts of the Deen. These are Aqaa’id (beliefs) and Ibaadaat (worship).
May allah give us the ability to practice them all - ameen
