O mankind! Eat of that which is lawful and good on the earth, and follow not the footsteps of Shaitân (Satan). Verily, he is to you an open enemy.






According to Al Imaam, Al Mufassir Muhammad Jamaaluddeen Al Qaasimee - rahimahullaah - in his tafseer entitled ‘Mahaasinut Ta’weel commonly known as Tafseer al-Qaasimee the meaning of ‘tayyib’ in this noble aayah is: ‘that which is pleasant and delicious to one’s self without being harmful to their bodies nor their intellect’.


And the Prophet - sallallaahu alaihe wa sallam - said: (There are) four (qualities) of which, if the world in its entirety passed you by there will be no blame on you if you had attained them:

1)- Sidqul Hadeeth: Truthfulness in speech.

2)- Hifdhul Amaanah: Keeping trusts.

3)- Husnul Khuluq: Perfection of character.

4)-‘Iffatul Mat’am: Abstinence (as much as possible) concerning [the] consumption of food.

Collected by Imaam At Tabaraanee and it is saheeh.

The meaning of ‘iffatul mat’am’ is:

a) that one does not nourish one’s self with the haraam,


b) or that which is not nutritious,


c) nor with that which possesses something doubtful


d) or increases the intake beyond what is sufficient to sustain one’s self even if it is from the halaal,


e) and one should not overeat.


In an authentic narration Abdullaah ibn Mas’ood, radiyallaahu ‘anhu used to say:


quote:
al-Istihyaa’ or shyness regarding Allaah is that you protect your head and what it contains, that you look after your stomach and what fills it, that you remember (constantly) death and decay.

So whoever desires the Here-after abandons the adornments of the world and whoever does that, has in reality become shy regarding Allaah with the utmost of shyness

"If the dead were asked what the reason was for their death, they would've answered, "overeating."

Commentary of Hadeeth #47
By Imaam Ibn Rajab


Al Miqdaad ibn Ma'dy Karib (radhiyallaahu 'anhu) narrated: "I heard the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam) saying: "The son of Aadam never filled a vessel more vicious than his stomach. It is sufficient for a son of Aadam to eat enough food to provide for his essential needs. If it is inevitable to eat more than that, he shall fill one third (of his stomach) with food, one third with drink, and leave one third (empty) for breathing (comfortably)."

{At Tirmidhee Kitaabuz Zuhd #2380} He labeled it as "good and authentic." It was also recorded by Al Mubaarak in Kitaabuz Zuhd #603, by Al Bayhaaqi in his Shu'ab al Eemaan #5648, 5650 and by At Tabaraani 20/274.


The Importance of this Hadeeth


This hadeeth is a basis of three principles medicine. It is narrated that when the physician Ibn Masawayh read this hadeeth in the book on Abu Khuthaimah (radhiyallaahu 'anhu) he said, "If people make use of such words, they will be protected from diseases and maladies; hospitals and pharmacies will have no patients." He said this because overeating is reason for all diseases.

Al Haarith ibn Kildah, a prominent 'Arab physician said, "Diet is the mother of medicine and overeating is the mother of illness."

Al Haarith also said, "That which kills human beings and annihilates animals in the wilderness is eating food while the stomach is still full of undigested food."

It is also quoted, "If the dead were asked what the reason was for their death, they would've answered, "overeating."

These are but some of the benefits of diet for having sound health. As for the heart, little food brings about tender hearts, sound understanding, and humility. A small amount food also decreases bodily desires and anger. Too much food results in just the opposite effect.

Ibn 'Umar (radhiyallaahu 'anhu) said, "I have not been completely satiated for the last four months."

'Amr ibn Qays (radhiyallaahu 'anhu) said, "Beware of overeating, it hardens the hearts."

Salamah ibn Sa'eed (radhiyallaahu 'anhu) said, "Men use to be criticized for overeating as much as they were criticized for committing sins."

Muhammad ibn An Nadr al Haarithy (radhiyallaahu 'anhu) said, "Hunger leads to piety as fullness leads to arrogance."

Ash Shaafi'ee said (rahimahullaah) said, "I have not been full for 16 years because fullness results in laziness, witlessness and sleepiness. In addition, it weakens one's ability to worship."

Abu Juhayfah (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said to a man who burped in his presence:

“Stop your burping, for the people who eat the most in this life will be the most hungry hungry on the Day of Resurrection.” (Reported by al-Haakim. Saheeh al-Jaami’, 1190).
