Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. The questioner, Sādim Mīm al-Shahrī from al-Ḥafar al-Bāṭiḥ, says: What is your view regarding the beginning of eating? Some of the brothers say, "Bismillah, O Allah, bless us in what You have provided us and protect us from the punishment of the Fire." What is the validity of this invocation? What is reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is that he says when eating.
Answer:
And he praises Allah and extols Him when he finishes eating. So he begins with Bismillah and ends with al-ḥamd lillāh. Yes.
