Hello everyone! ^_^
I hope your days are great.
Have you ever eaten with bare hands?? WITHOUT CUTLERY. OR, If you do that, how often do you eat with bare hands??
Do you know that eating with bare hands is useful for us?? They say the flora in the fingers is swallowed. This LINK, this LINK, this LINK, or this LINK. Oh, I know that you might be reluctant to read them all. Let me write some points here. :)
The benefit of eating with bare hands
- More hygienic
- Helps manage digestion problems
- Helps increase blood circulation
- Prevent diseases like type-2 diabetes
- Believed to have lose weight
- You know that your food is hot
- Exercise for your hands
- .... and more
Well, I often eat with bare hand when the menu is without gravy or broth. Of course I wash my hand before eating. And, I don't forget to cut my fingernails every week. Surely I use my right hand, I don't mean to offend lefties. Do you remember what you do when you are in bath room? ))
What about you?
Thank you so much for your time. "Wish you a great January!" ^_^

I think that eating with your hands or with cutlery is a cultural issue, even the cutlery is different depending on the culture. What is important is that both the hands and the cutlery used to eat should be clean to avoid diseases.
Dear Teacher Dara,
To be honest, I practice this even more for one year. I tried to find ways how to keep healthy without medicines. It's successful. Eat, portion, ways, habits are anything related to health besides positive thinking.
Sometimes, I use spoon, too, and sometimes wooden chopsticks.
Thank you for your reply and appreciation. I'm glad that you found it useful. :)
Dear onee....yes, in our part we eat food with our hands, yes right hands. ..we eat most of the food with our hands and we use spoons, forks for some food items like, pasta, noodes, soup, curds, ice cream, pudding...but we usually use spoins, forks, knives when we eat outside...at home we prefer eating with our iwn hands...though use spoons for some items....one more thing...in our part..people of all religions. ..do the same thjng, I also know...it us same in India and Pakistan too. Anyway it is a very interesting topic...like before!
i don't use to eat with my bare hands but i'm not afraid of getting my hands dirty when I can not maneuver just with the cutlery. but i also want to ask you how do you do to put the links like this"this link" without all this (https://spoonuniversity.com/lifestyle/8-reasons-eating-hands-awesome) I think it is very useful.
Our teacher in elementary school was explaining for us how we should use the forks , spoons and knives for eating . A lesson which was for away from our arabic and Islamic culture , were we are used to eat with bare hands only . I still remember that some of us asked her " Why are we studying this ? We don't have use forks , spoons or knives ! We are used to use our hands . Then she smiled and came up with a clever answer saying . Who knows maybe one day one of you , will be a very luxurious woman and she needs to know how to eat with them :) :) :)
Here we enjoy eating with our hands most . Prophet Mohammad peace be upon him did it and we are still doing it until now . Thanks for sharing your information about how beneficial and hygienic it is to use our hands or let me say our natural spoons :)
Saya makan dengan tangan saya setiap hari. I did not know about those useful tips you mentioned in this wonderful discussion of yours. On the contrary, using fork and knife does not make me easy and comfortable to eat. Besides, with my bare hands, I can have a good and big mouthful. Don't think I eat a lot. It (Sunnah) to eat with the hands instead of the spoon. A very provocative article of that respected moderator. Thanks, mod. Onee for sharing.
