Do not eat & drink with "Left Hand"     [Sahih Muslim: Volume 3, Book 23, Number 5007] Jabir b. 'Abdullah (Radi Allah Anhu) reported Allah's Messenger (sal-allahu- alleihi-wasallam) having said: "Do not eat with your left hand, for the Satan eats with his left hand."   [Sahih Muslim: Volume 3, Book 23, Number 5008] Ibn 'Umar (Radi Allah Anhu) reported Allah's Messenger (sal-allahu- alleihi-wasallam) as saying: "When any one of you intends to eat (meal), he should eat with his right hand. and when he (intends) to drink he should drink with his right hand, for the Satan eats with his left hand and drinks with his left hand."   [Sahih Muslim: Volume 3, Book 23, Number 5010] Salim (Radi Allah Anhu), on the authority of his father, reported Allah's Messenger (sal-allahu- alleihi-wasallam) as saying: "None of you should eat with his left hand and drink with that (left hand), for the Satan eats with left hand and drinks with that (hand). Nafi' has made this addition in that:" Do not take up anything with that (left hand) and do not give anything with that."   [Sahih Muslim: Volume 3, Book 23, Number 5012] 'Umar b. Abu Salama (Radi Allah Anhu) reported: I was under the care of Allah's Messenger (sal-allahu- alleihi-wasallam), and as my hand used to roam about in the dish he said to me: "Boy, mention the name of Allah, and eat with your right hand and eat from what is near to you."   Our Lord! accept from us; surely Thou art the Hearing, the Knowing.

Those who in Believe in Allah And those who Believe in Stars

 

 

[Sahih Bukhari :  Book 1, Kitab Al-Iman ,  Number 132] It is narrated on the authority of Zaid b. Khalid al-Juhani (Radi Allah Anhu) : The Messenger of Allah (sal-allahu-alleihi- wasallam) led the morning prayer at Hudaybiya. There were some marks of the rainfall during the night. At the conclusion of prayer he turned towards people and observed: Do you know what your Lord has said? They replied: Allah and His Messenger know best. Upon this he (the Holy Prophet (sal-allahu-alleihi- wasallam) ) remarked: He (Allah) said: Some of My bondsmen entered the morning as My believers and some as unbelievers. He who said: We have had a rainfall due to the Blessing and Mercy of Allah, he is My believer and a disbeliever of stars, and who said: We have had a rainfall due to the rising of such and such (star) disbelieved Me and affirmed his faith in the stars.   [Sahih Bukhari :  Book 1, Kitab Al-Iman ,  Number 133] It is reported on the authority of Abu Huraira (Radi Allah Anhu) that the Messenger of Allah (sal-allahu-alleihi- wasallam) said: Don't you know what your Lord said? He observed: I have never endowed My bondsmen with a favor, but a section amongst them disbelieved it and said: Stars, it was due to the stars. [Sahih Bukhari :  Book 1, Kitab Al-Iman ,  Number 134] It is reported on the authority of Abu Huraira (Radi Allah Anhu) that the Messenger of Allah (sal-allahu-alleihi- wasallam) observed: Allah does not shower His blessings from the heaven that in the morning a group of men disbelieve it (to be a blessing from Allah). Allah sends down rain, but they (the disbelievers) say: Such and such star (is responsible for that). [Sahih Bukhari :  Book 1, Kitab Al-Iman ,  Number 135] It is reported on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas (Radi Allah Anhu) that there was (once) a downpour during the life of the Apostle (sal-allahu-alleihi- wasallam) this the Apostle (sal-allahu-alleihi- wasallam) observed: Some people entered the morning with gratitude and some with ingratitude (to Allah). Those who entered with gratitude said: This is the blessing of Allah, and those who entered with ingratitude said: Such and such asterism was right. It was upon this that the verse was revealed: I swear by the falling of stars; And most surely it is a very great oath if you only knew; Most surely it is an honored Quran, In a book that is protected; None shall touch it save the purified ones; A revelation by the Lord of the worlds. Do you then hold this announcement in contempt? And to give (it) the lie you make your means of subsistence. (Surah Al-Waqia)
