ADAB WHEN EAT AND DRINK IN ISLAMIC RELIGION
Explanation of the etiquette of eating and drinking in Islam
In language, adab means subtlety and good character. Politeness is not only applied in association. Eating and drinking also requires rules and politeness. Islam has set the procedures for eating and drinking according to the example of the Prophet Muhammad. Eating and drinking exemplified by the Prophet Muhammad is a rule that must be applied in everyday life. Good eating and drinking should begin and end with a prayer reading. (Read Exemplifying the Struggle of Prophet Muhammad SAW and His Companions in Mecca )
Food and drink that enters our body must be halal and good food and drink, namely food that is beneficial to our body. Halal and good food and drinks will also have a good impact on the mind and daily human activities. Good food will benefit the body and can produce a good mind as well. Vice versa, haram food will have a negative impact on the body and mind. Allah SWT gives freedom for humans to enjoy all the good food and drink that is on this earth, as long as there are no restrictions that prohibit it. The Word of Allah SWT: "O you who believe, do not forbid what is good which Allah has made lawful for you, and do not transgress. Verily, Allah does not like those who transgress." (Ali-Imran:
