Allah سبحانہ وتعالیٰ has placed the conformity and observance of the Holy Prophet’s sunnah as a prerequisite of attaining His Love. The Holy Quran states,  Say, (O Muhammad to mankind): “If you (really) love Allah, then follow me (i.e. accept Islam. Follow the Quran and the Sunnah, Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. And Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.” (Aal e Imran)

It teaches us how to live in this finite world and how to secure a high place in the gardens of Jannah. A brief and concise description of some of the of chaste sunnah of the Holy Prophet is given below which if implemented will help us in strengthening our relationship with Allah and in acquiring success in the Hereafter.

Sunnah of Eating
Rasoolullah used to wash his hands and recite Bismillah prior to eating food. He would eat with his right hand and from his front rather than the middle of the dish. He would never point out if the food was unpleasing.

Ettiquettes of Drinking
He would drink, while sitting, without slurping and making undesirable sounds. He used to drink in three breaths (for one drink) and disapproved of breathing in the drinking vessel. He refrained from drinking water just after finishing meals.
