How much is the remembrance of Allah the Exalted when entering the house and eating food?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Shaykh, in a hadith from Jabir, it says: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: When a man enters his house,
and he mentions Allah the Exalted upon entering and upon his food, he said,The Shaykh : "There is no lodging for you and no dinner." So if the man enters, what
is the name of Allah the Exalted mentioned? Is Satan at that man's place, eating from his food? What would he eat?
The questioner:
This is the intended meaning
The Shaykh :
This is the intended answer, from here and here. Satan has sustenance that mixes with humans, and he has sustenance specific to him.
The questioner:
Now, if you did not mention Allah, the number is... one.
The Shaykh :
What is your knowledge regarding the proportion of Satan's eating?
The questioner :
......
The Shaykh :
What is its proportion? Its quantity, I mean... like our talk, for example, we have this kind of information, meaning if you take how many grains, you feel
that they are in it. So what interests you? Do you want to delve into these details? They are not practical rulings that bring us closer to Allah Mighty and Majestic.
Knowing them, because they concern us, is from the strange matters in which it is not good to expand. This is, as it is said, from
the edge of knowledge. What do you want with these details?
The questioner:
Shaykh, this is a question. Can you answer it?
