 Eating habits according to Sunnah of the Holy
Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) have proven now as
the healthy and hygienic eating habits according to
medical science. A few of them are as under;
 Wash hands before and after meal.
 Start with the praise of Allah.
 Eat with right hand.
 Meal together.
 Eat less
Wash Hands Before and After Meal
 Prophet (S.A.W) gave warning
not to dry hands and proceed to
eat with wet hands.

 Medical science has now clear

that washing of hands before
and after a meal saved us from
transfer of germs through towel
/ tissue paper.
 Start With The Praise Of Allah
 Prophet (S.A.W) said,
“Verily, Allah is pleased with
a servant who praises Him
when he eats, or praises Him
when he drinks.”

 Praise dissipates worry and

dilutes concern and fear.
Praise reduce sadness and
magnifies goodness.
 Eat With Your Right Hand
 The Holy Prophet (S.A.W) said that
one should eat and drink with his
right hand, for Satan eats and drinks
with the left hand.

 The left hand is considered unclean

because, at least in principle, it is
used for personal hygiene.
Therefore, eat and drink with right
hand is healthy and hygienic.
 Meal Together
 The Holy Prophet (S.A.W)
said, “Eat together and not
separately, for the blessing is
associated with the company.”

 Eating together can provide

longer health benefits and has
been shown to reduce
depression and improve
confidence.
 Eat Less

 The Holy Prophet (S.A.W) said,

“Nothing is worse than a person
who fills his stomach. It should be
enough for the son of Adam to
have a few bites to satisfy his
hunger…”

 According to medical science

eating less prevents sickness and
diseases like cancer, diabetes etc.
