In today’s fast-paced lifestyle, eating has become rushed, distracted, and mechanical. Many of us eat while scrolling, skip meals, or overeat without awareness—habits that affect not only physical health but also spiritual well-being. Islam offers a timeless framework for nourishment—one that emphasizes intention, moderation, gratitude, and mindfulness .
