Allaah, the Most High said (words that mean), "...And eat and drink and be not excessive (therein)..." (al-A'raaf 7:31)
Allaah Has Combined All of Medicine (at-Tibb) in Half a Verse of the Qur'aan
Excerpts:
Al-Qurtubi commented upon this verse, after mentioning that excessive eating is makrooh (disliked), he mentions the benefits of eating little:
quote:
In eating little there are many benefits. From them that a man becomes of sounder body, of better memory, purer in understanding, (requiring) less sleep, and lighter in (his) soul...
Alee bin Hasan said:
quote:
"And Allah, the Sublime and Exalted, has combined the whole of medicine in (just) half a verse, so He, the Most High said, "And eat and drink and be not excessive..."
Subhanak Allaahuma wa bihamdika ash-hadu anlaa illaaha illa anta astaghfiruka wa atubu ilayk
If I said anything correct, then it is from Allaah (subhanahu wa taa'ala), and if I erred, then that is from me and shaytan.
