Etiquette of Eating & Drinking

Eat with the right hand

The Prophet (SAW) told a young boy eating carelessly: "O boy, say Bismillah, eat with your right hand, and eat from what is nearest to you."

Reference: Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, on the authority of Umar ibn Abi Salamah (RA)

Explanation

This distinguishes the believer's practice from Satan, who eats and drinks with his left hand.
