“I entered with the Messenger of Allah, I and Khalid bin Al-Walid, upon Maimunah so she brought us a vessel of milk. The Messenger of Allah drank from it, I was upon his right and Khalid was upon left, so he said to me: ‘The (turn to) drink is for you, so if you wish, you could choose to grant it to Khalid.’ So I said: ‘I would not prefer anyone (above myself) for your leftovers.’ Then the Messenger of Allah said: ‘Whoever Allah feeds some food, then let him say: “O Allah, bless it for us, and feed us better than it, (Allahumma Barik Lana Fihi Wa At’imna Khairan Minhu)” and whomsoever Allah gives milk to drink, then let him say: “O Allah bless it for us, and grant us increase in it (Allahummha Barik Lana Fihi Wa Zidna Minhu).” And the Messenger of Allah said, ‘There is nothing that suffices in the place of food and rink except for milk.’”

when the table spread would be lifted from in front of him, the Messenger of Allah would say: “All praise is due to Allah, abundant, good, blessed praise, without being left off, nor being without need of it, O our Lord (Al-Hamdulillahi Hamdan Kathiran Tayyiban Mabarakan Fihi, Ghaira Muwwadda’in, Wa La Mustaghnan Anhu Rabbana).”

When the Prophet used to eat or drink, he would say: “All praise is due to Allah who fed us and gave us drink, and made us Muslims (Al-Hamdulillah, Alladhi At’amana, Wa Saqana, Wa Ja’alana Muslimin).”

The Messenger of Allah said: “Whoever eats food and then says: ‘All praise is due to Allah who fed me this and granted it as provision to me, without any effort from me nor power, (Al-Hamdulillah, Alladhi At’amani Hadha Wa Razaqanihi Min Ghairi Hawlin Minni, Wa La Quwwatin)’ his past sins shall be forgiven.”
