الذِّكْرُ عِنْدَ الطَّعَامِ وَالشَّرَابِ
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ.
فَإِنْ نَسِيَ فِي أَوَّلِهِ، فَلْيَقُلْ:
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ أَوَّلَهُ وَآخِرَهُ.
Remembrance when eating and drinking

In the name of Allah.

If one forgets at the beginning, one should say:
In the name of Allah at its beginning and its end.
الذِّكْرُ عِنْدَ شُرْبِ اللَّبَنِ
اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِيهِ, وَزِدْنَا مِنْهُ.
Remembrance when drinking milk

O Allah, bless it for us and grant us more of it.
الذِّكْرُ عِنْدَ الْفَرَاغِ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ وَالشَّرَابِ
الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَطْعَمَنِي هَذَا, وَرَزَقَنِيهِ مِنْ غَيْرِ حَوْلٍ مِنِّي وَلَا قُوَّةٍ.
الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ غَيْرَ مَكْفِيٍّ وَلَا مُوَدَّعٍ وَلَا مُسْتَغْنًى عَنْهُ رَبَّنَا.
Remembrance after eating and drinking

All praise belongs to Allah, who fed me this and provided it for me without any power or strength of my own.

All praise belongs to Allah—abundant, pure, blessed praise. Our Lord is never repaid in full, never forsaken, and never dispensable.
غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ.
His previous sins are forgiven.
أَذْكَارُ الضَّيْفِ
أَفْطَرَ عِنْدَكُمُ الصَّائِمُونَ ، وَأَكَلَ طَعَامَكُمُ الْأَبْرَارُ ، وَصَلَّتْ عَلَيْكُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ.
A guest's supplication

May fasting people break their fast with you, may the righteous eat your food, and may the angels pray for you.
هَدْيُ النَّبِيِّ فِي الشُّرْبِ
كَانَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَشْرَبُ فِي ثَلَاثَةِ أَنْفَاسٍ، إِذَا أَدْنَى الْإِنَاءَ إِلَى فَمِهِ سَمَّى اللَّهَ تَعَالَى, وَإِذَا أَخَّرَهُ حَمِدَ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى، يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ.
The Prophet's guidance when drinking

The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, drank in three separate breaths. When bringing the vessel to his mouth, he named Allah; when taking it away, he praised Allah. He did this three times.

Hadith
Abu Hurayra reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Allah created Adam, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and his height was 60 spans. He said, 'Go and greet those (a group of angels who were sitting down) and listen to how they answer you. It is your greeting and the greeting of your descendants.' He said, 'Peace be upon you,' and they replied, 'Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah.' They added, 'and the mercy of Allah'. All who enter the Garden will have his form, but creation has continued to decline until now.'"
