Did the Prophet have lunch before the nap or after it?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Did the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) have lunch and then take a nap, or did he take a nap and then have lunch?

The Shaykh:
It is well known that they had lunch at mid-morning, not like us who have lunch after Dhuhr or Asr. They had lunch at mid-morning and then took a nap after lunch.

The presenter:
May Allah reward me.

The Shaykh:
In the recent past, this was the case in this land. They had lunch at mid-morning, because there is no breakfast after the sun rises. They had lunch at mid-morning and then slept.
