Hadith 19420

قَالَ قَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ : حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ ، أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " إِذَا أَكَلَ أَحَدُكُمْ ، فَلَا يَأْكُلْ بِشِمَالِهِ ، وَإِذَا شَرِبَ ، فَلَا يَشْرَبْ بِشِمَالِهِ ، وَإِذَا أَخَذَ ، فَلَا يَأْخُذْ بِشِمَالِهِ ، وَإِذَا أَعْطَى ، فَلَا يُعْطِي بِشِمَالِهِ " .
It is narrated mursal from Abdullah bin Abi Talha, may Allah have mercy on him, that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: When any one of you eats food, he should not eat with his left hand; when he drinks, he should not drink with his left hand; when he holds something, he should not hold it with his left hand; and when he gives something, he should not give it with his left hand.
