Imam Sadiq (as) says:
“The Prophet wiped the dish of the food and said:
‘Anyone who does this, his action is like he has given
charity to the size of the dish of his food”.

6. According to view of Holy Prophet angels
pray for the abundance of sustenance for the
one who finishes his food.
Allah says in Holy Quran:

“And when your Lord made it known: If you are
grateful, I would certainly give to you more, and if you
2
are ungrateful, My chastisement is truly severe”.
It is clear if we are thankful to him, he will
surely enhance his blessing towards us. It is act of
gratefulness to finish your food, to avoid waste to
show kind of thankfulness to God.
7. Prophet used to be careful with hygiene of
the food, the container where food or drink is
as matter of health and hygiene.
8. Prophet used to eat/drink in plate/glass
which were cleaner and which were easier to
clean.
9. Prophet used to drink in palm of his hands.
Prophet said:
3
“There is no dish cleaner than the palm of hands”.
