The Blessing of Eating Together

SUMMARY: Eating together and mentioning the name of Allah over food will make it blessed.

Wahshi bin Harb (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Some of the Companions of Messenger of Allah said: "We eat but are not satisfied". He said, "Perhaps you eat separately". The Companions replied in affirmative. He then said: "Eat together and mention the Name of Allah over your food. It will be blessed for you". Abu Dawud.
عن وحشى بن حرب رضى الله عنه أن أصحاب رسول الله قالوا‏:‏ يا رسول الله ، إنا نأكل ولا نشبع قال‏:‏ ‏"‏فلعلكم تفترقون‏"‏ قالوا‏:‏ نعم‏.‏ قال‏:‏ فاجتمعوا على طعامكم، واذكروا اسم الله ، يبارك لكم فيه‏"‏ ((رواه أبو داود))
