I thought this was interesting:


Following are the manners told by the Holy Prophet Muhammad(Salah) for eating:
1.Wash your hands and grogle before eating.
2.Eat with the intention to get power and strength for obeying all the commandments of Almighty Allah.
3.Eat with your right hand.
4.Eat collectively and not seperately.More hands in one utensil will bring more blessing from Almighty.
5.Be contended and thankful to Almighty on whatever you get for eating and drinking.
6.Eat while sitting on both your feet with your knees bended or sitting on left foot and right calf with knee up or on both calves with both knees bended.

On my last trip to Tangiers, I was fortunate enough to be invited to a pre wedding party in my friends neighbours house. This was a first for me and after a long sociable night The food was placed on the table (3,30 am). The first huge plate was beef cooked with prunes and olives, Ive never eaten meat so tender. This was then followed by A huge plate of chicken with my favorite olive and kidney sauce.
We all sat around a round table and ate with our hands.I have to say this was an enjoyable experiance and a very natural way of eating. Everyone was extremely well mannered and polite.
Hopefully I'll be able to make it for the wedding itself in a few months.
