————

What if eating wasn’t just a daily habit — but a deeply spiritual act?


In this powerful eleventh book of the Ihya’, Imam Al-Ghazali explores the ethics, etiquette, and spiritual wisdom behind food, meals, and eating. Drawing from the Qur’an, Hadith, and the practices of the early generations, he reveals how our relationship with food reflects our inner state — and how eating with awareness, gratitude, and moderation can become a form of worship.


Listeners will discover:


– The Prophet’s (peace be upon him) table manners and mealtime sunnahs

– The virtues of hospitality and sharing food

– The spiritual dangers of overeating, waste, and indulgence

– The deeper meanings of washing hands, saying bismillah, and eating with the right hand

– How to turn every meal into a reminder of God


Rich in practical guidance and timeless insight, The Ethics of Eating offers a roadmap to mindful, intentional living — starting with what’s on your plate.
