Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Now, do we say that one should eat only enough to satisfy one's appetite, or is it permissible for one to eat until full?

Answer : We say that it is permissible for you to eat until full, because the dispensation is general. He said, "Start with it," in the hadith:
start having it before prayingابدؤوا به قبل أن تصليوا
Sahih al-Bukhari 672
regarding 'Isha', it is permissible for him to eat until he is full.
