And in yourselves. Then will you not see?
O mankind, eat from whatever is on earth [that is] lawful and good and do not follow the footsteps of Satan. Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy. [2:168]
O you who have believed, eat from the good things which We have provided for you and be grateful to Allah if it is [indeed] Him that you worship. [2:172]
[Allah said], "O messengers, eat from the good foods and work righteousness. Indeed, I, of what you do, am Knowing. [23:51]
Alhamdulillah, I'm so glad that we were able to do this workshop. Because when it comes to food many don’t have a basic understanding of the difference between halaal and Thayyib.
This was something we were working on as our science lessons, but Alhamdulillah it was destined to be far more than that.
This was the beginning of our project.
Most of all eating and drinking is not realized to be a command by the Creator. As the religion is considered to be only at times of worship.
Also, they are told to avoid eating refined flour, sugar, junk etc.… but again its not said why and what are the effects they have on our system.
Furthermore, the ingenious system of digestion and how it works is also not thought, so that we can be grateful to Him and preserve the system by sustaining it in the way guided by the Creator and paying attention to the Prophetic ways of eating.
Some pics from the event.
We had a sale afterwards.
Jazakumullahu Khairan to all our participants and all those who worked together to make this happen.
Our special thanks to our dear chief guest Asma Ali Khan, and her mom for taking their time and accepting our invitation.
