Food without Mentioning the Name of Allah

The Messenger of Allah (s) said:

«كُلُّ طَعامٍ لا يُذْكَرُ اِسْمُ اللّهِ عَلَيْهِ، فَاِنَّما هُوَ داءٌ وَ لا بَرَكَةَ فيهِ»

‘Every food on which the Name of Allah is not mentioned is (a cause of) disease and is devoid of barakah (blessing).’

The greatest blessing in the words of Amīr al-Muʾminīn, ʿAlī (a)

Imam Ali (peace be upon him) said:

«اَلصِّحَّةُ اَفْضَلُ النِّعَمِ»

‘Health is the best of blessings.’
