Is it Discouraged to Talk while Eating? – Dr Zakir Naik
RDDZ-8-17
Yusuf Chambers: Question 9. Once we invited a guest for Iftaar, he said it is discouraged to talk while eating in the religion of Islam. Is he correct?
Dr. Zakir: I don’t know of any Hadith of Prophet Muhammad, (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam), where he said that you should not talk speak while eating etc. faisal.ags
Infact Allah says in the Qur’an in Surah Nisa ch. 4 verse no. 59 that if there is a difference go back to Allah and His Rasool. There is no text in the Quran which says you should not speak while eating. There is not text in the Hadith where the Prophet commanded that you should not speak while eating. In fact there are Hadith exactly the opposite the Prophet spoke while eating.
For example if you read the Hadith of Sahih Muslim Vol. no. 3 Hadith no. 5093 where the Prophet was served vinegar and he said that
“Vinegar is a good food” while eating.
There are other Hadith in which the Prophet said that
“Do not eat with your left hand for the Satan eats with the left hand.”
Again this is while eating.
Another Hadith of Sahih Bukhari Vol. no. 7 (Book of Foods) Hadith no. 5376
where the beloved Prophet Muhammad, (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) said
“There was a boy who was eating with the Prophet and was moving his hand around so the Prophet said ‘eat with your right hand and eat from what is close to you’
So this he said while eating.
So all these Hadith prove that there is no restriction for speaking while eating. So whenever there’s a difference go back to Allah and His Rasool and you’ll get the answer.
