Musnad ash-Shihab 1099 — Allah is pleased with the servant who eats

1099 - أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْبَزَّارُ، أنا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ، أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، ثنا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الْأَزْرَقُ، ثنا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَيَرْضَى عَنِ الْعَبْدِ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ الْأَكْلَةَ فَيَحْمَدُ اللَّهَ عَلَيْهَا، أَوْ يَشْرَبَ الشَّرْبَةَ فَيَحْمَدُ اللَّهَ عَلَيْهَا»
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Indeed, Allah is pleased with the servant who, when he eats food, praises Allah for it, or when he drinks a drink, praises Allah for it.”

Brief Explanation
Explanation:
The meaning is that when a person finishes eating food or drinking something and then expresses gratitude to Allah Ta'ala, praises and glorifies Him, Allah Ta'ala becomes pleased with this act of His servant. When the Noble Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would finish eating, he would recite this supplication: «الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ ، غَيْرَ مَكْفِيٍّ وَلَا مُوَدَّعٍ وَلَا مُسْتَغْنًى عَنْهُ رَبَّنَا » "All praise is for Allah, abundant, pure, and blessed praise. We were not able to fully do justice to this food, nor is it something that has been bid farewell forever (and this is recited so that) we do not become heedless regarding it. O our Lord!" [بخاري : 5458]

Another supplication is also narrated: «الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي أَطْعَمَنِي هَذَا وَرَزَقَنِيهِ مِنْ غَيْرِ حَوْلٍ مِنِّي وَلَا قُوَّةٍ» "All praise is for Allah who fed me this food and provided me with sustenance without any power or strength from myself." [ترمذي : 3458 ، وسنده حسن]

The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: "Whoever recites this supplication after eating, his previous sins will be forgiven." (Also)
