Mentioning Allah at start and end of meals
Hadith 1828
- " كان إذا قرب إليه الطعام يقول: بسم الله، فإذا فرغ قال: اللهم أطعمت وأسقيت وأقنيت وهديت وأحييت، فلله الحمد على ما أعطيت ".
The companion who served the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) for eight years narrates that whenever any food was brought near the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he would say "Bismillah" (In the name of Allah), and when he finished eating, he would say: "O Allah! You fed, You gave drink, You satisfied and enriched, You guided, and You gave life, so all praise is for You (for these blessings) which You have bestowed."
