Question

Is there any fault in eating food with a spoon? Has the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) ever eaten food with a spoon? What is the ruling on cutting meat with a knife? 1663517551


Answer

- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) never ate food with a spoon. Therefore, eating with a spoon, cut spoon, etc. without any need is against the Sunnah. Huzur Sallallahu ‘alaihi wa sallam used to eat Eid with his hands. After eating, he would lick his fingers and clean them. It is sunnat to cut meat etc. with a tooth without cutting it with a knife. However, it is permissible to eat with a spoon or cut meat with a knife when absolutely necessary. However, in this case, the infidels must be avoided. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) himself sometimes cut the meat with a knife and ate it. Because, the meat was very tough. It was not suitable for cutting with teeth. 9576556756
