Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When any one of you eats food, he should not wipe his hand. In another narration, there is this addition: He should not wipe it with a cloth until he has licked it or had it licked. Abu Zubair says: I heard Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) say, I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Before lifting the bowl, lick your fingers or have them licked, for there is blessing in the last part of the food.
