Musnad Abi Ya'la 3312 — when the Prophet ﷺ ate food, he would lick
حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْحَجَّاجِ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا أَكَلَ طَعَامًا لَعِقَ أَصَابِعَهُ الثَّلَاثَ ، وَقَالَ : إِذَا سَقَطَتْ لُقْمَةُ أَحَدِكُمْ ، فَلْيُمِطْ عَنْهَا الْأَذَى وَلْيَأْكُلْهَا ، وَلَا يَدَعْهَا لِلشَّيْطَانِ . وَأَمَرَنَا أَنْ نَسْلِتَ الصَّحْفَةَ ، وَقَالَ : إِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ لَا يَدْرِي فِي أَيِّ طَعَامِهِ يُبَارَكُ لَهُ فِيهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ate food, he would lick his three blessed fingers, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When a morsel of any of you falls, let him remove the harm (dirt or filth) on it and eat it, and not leave it for Satan." He (peace and blessings be upon him) also ordered us to wipe the bowl clean and said: "Indeed, none of you knows in which part of his food the blessing has been placed for him."
