Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِي وَجْزَةَ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي سَعْدٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي مُزَيْنَةَ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَا بُنَيَّ إِذَا أَكَلْتَ فَسَمِّ اللَّهَ وَكُلْ بِيَمِينِكَ وَكُلْ مِمَّا يَلِيكَ قَالَ فَمَا زَالَتْ أُكْلَتِي بَعْدُ.
English Translation
Abu Mu'awiyah told us: Hisham ibn 'Urwah told us, from Abu Wajzah, a man of Banu Sa'd, from a man of Banu Muzaynah, from 'Umar ibn Abi Salamah, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: O my son, when you eat, mention the name of Allah, eat with your right hand, and eat from what is nearest to you. He said: My manner of eating has remained thus ever since.
