Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 7375 — What Has Been Reported Regarding
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ كَافِرٌ فَكَانَ يَأْكُلُ أَكْلًا كَثِيرًا ثُمَّ أَنَّهُ أَسْلَمَ فَكَانَ يَأْكُلُ أَكْلًا قَلِيلًا فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ الْكَافِرَ يَأْكُلُ فِي سَبْعَةِ أَمْعَاءٍ وَإِنَّ الْمُسْلِمَ يَأْكُلُ فِي مِعًى وَاحِدٍ
Syedna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A man came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), at that time he was a disbeliever and used to eat excessively. Then when he became a Muslim, he began to eat less. When he mentioned this to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A disbeliever eats with seven intestines, and a Muslim eats with one intestine.
