Sunan Ibn Majah 3276 (Book 29, Hadith 26) #32630
Eating with Blessings

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) advised to eat from the sides of a dish and leave the top for blessings.

It was narrated that Wathilah bin Asqa’ Al-Laithi said: "The Messenger of Allah took hold of the top of the Tharid and said: 'Eat in the Name of Allah from its sides and leave the top, for the blessing comes from its top.’"
حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو حَفْصٍ، عُمَرُ بْنُ الدَّرَفْسِ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي قَسِيمَةَ، عَنْ وَاثِلَةَ بْنِ الأَسْقَعِ اللَّيْثِيِّ، قَالَ أَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ بِرَأْسِ الثَّرِيدِ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ كُلُوا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ مِنْ حَوَالَيْهَا وَاعْفُوا رَأْسَهَا فَإِنَّ الْبَرَكَةَ تَأْتِيهَا مِنْ فَوْقِهَا

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about eating in the name of Allah and leaving the top of a dish for blessings. The Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, took hold of a dish called Tharid and said that one should eat from its sides in the name of Allah and leave its top as it is where blessing comes from. This hadith teaches us to be mindful when we are eating, to remember Allah's name before we start our meal, and to always leave some food on our plate as an act of gratitude towards God's blessings. It also encourages us to share what we have with others so that everyone can benefit from God's mercy. We should also remember that whatever good things come our way are all due to His grace alone.
