AHADITH REGARDING FOOD

BISMILLAAHIR RAHMAANIR RAHEEM.
ASSALAMU'ALAIKUM WRWBTH DEAR ILHAM FRIENDS,

' Abdallah bin Salam RA said: " When the Prophet SAWS came to Al-Madinah, the people rushed to meet him, and it was said, ' The Messenger of Allah SAWS has come! The Messenger of Allah SAWS has come! The Messenger of Allah SAWS has come!' three times. I came with the people to see him, and when I saw his face clearly, I knew that his face was not the face of a liar. The first thing that I heard him say was: ' O people! Spread (the greeting of) salam, feed others, uphold the ties of kinship, and pray during the night when people are sleeping, and you will enter Paradise with Salam.' " (Ibn Majah)

It was narrated from 'Abdallah bin 'Amr RA that a man asked the Messenger of Allah SAWS:
" O Messenger of Allah, which (aspect) of Islam is the best?" He (SAWS) replied, " Offering food (to the needy) and greeting with salam those whom you know and those whom you do not know." (Ibn Majah)

Ma'Salamah,
Sr. Tasneem
