1. Wash Hands

Washing hands is one way to avoid becoming infected with a dangerous disease.

Rasulullah SAW said: "He who was asleep in her arms are former lard / fat (because it is not washed), and when morning he suffered from an illness, then let him not to blame but himself."

2. Reading Basmalah Before Eating

Included also read basmalah before eating and ending with hamdalah after eating.

It was narrated from Umar ibn Abi Salamah said:

كنت غلاما في حجر رسول الله -صلى الله عليه وسلم-, وكانت يدي تطيش في الصحفة, فقال لي رسول الله -صلى الله عليه وسلم-: ياغلام, سم الله, وكل بيمينك, وكل مما يليك

Meaning: "When I was a kid in the upbringing Messenger of Allaah alaihi Wasallam, and my hand took the food from all sides of the plate. then said to me the Messenger of Allaah 'alaihi Wasallam: O children, read basmalah, and eat with your right hand, and eat what is close to you. "(Narrated by Bukhari, Muslim, Ahmad, Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah)

And read hamdalah after eating or drinking, according to the words of the Messenger of Allaah 'alaihi Wasallam:

من أكل طعاما فقال الحمد لله الذي أطعمني هذا ورزقنيه من غير حول مني ولا قوة غفر له ما تقدم من ذنبه

Allah's Apostle SAW bersabada: "If one of you want to eat, then celebrate the name of Allah SWT. And if he forgot his name at first, then read, 'Bismillahi awwalahu wa akhirahu' (In the name of Allah at the beginning and at the end). "(HR. Abu Dawud)

Prophet also said: "Verily Allah be pleased with a servant when eating a meal and then she say Alhamdulillah. And when he drank a drink so he will say Alhamdulillah. "(HR. Muslim, Ahmad and Tirmidhi)

Abdullah bin Umar. saying that the Prophet SAW said: "If any one among you eat, let him eat with his right hand, and when he drank then let drink with his right hand. Because devils were eating and drinking with his left hand. "(HR. Muslim)

Suffice it to the children of Adam a few mouthfuls that can enforce his spine. If there is no other way, then one third (from the stomach) for his food, a third for drink and one third for breathing. "(HR. Tirmidhi and Hakim)

8. Eat when hungry and stop Before Satiety

The purpose of has served that was ready to eat. Rasullualah shallallhu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "If dinner has been served and prayers have been upheld, then start with dinner and do not be hasty (all pray) until your food is finished." (Agreed alaih)

Faidah priority to eat rather than prayer is we will not think about food when praying. Therefore, which measures the level of a person hungry. If there is someone very hungry and the food has been served should eat first. But this should not be done much less frequently used as a routine.

12. Drink Triple Draught While Breath Taking Off Glasses
