I want you to understand that first before you read more explanations in this article because it is a basic question about dua for after eating in Islam that must be well understood.

Dua is sentences about supplication and praise to Allah. In general, these requests are requests that Allah give us good things and that He keep us from bad things. Dua is not only said when we need something, but also when we are getting something.

In Islam, dua is a type of worship. We can find this explanation in the hadith below:

عَنِ النُّعْمَانَ بْنِ بَشِيْرٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : إِنَّ الدُّعَاءَ هُوَ العِبَادَةُ

From Nukman bin Basyir radliyallahu anhuma, that the Prophet (Muhammad) sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, "Verily dua is worship."

So, if you ask me, "what is dua for after eating?", the answer is sentences about supplications and praises to Allah that are said after eating. That's the answer.

That's a brief explanation of "what is dua for after eating?". As Muslims, we must understand that.

Why Do You Have to Say Dua for After Eating?

The important thing about dua for after eating in English and Arabic which I will explain now is “why do you have to say dua for after eating?”. I want you to understand that now because it is one of the important questions in this discussion that must be well understood.

Before I give you the answer to that question (why do you have to say dua for after eating?), I will quote some verses of the Quran and hadith that are specifically related to this discussion. Pay attention to the explanation below:

فَكُلُوْا مِمَّا رَزَقَكُمُ اللّٰهُ حَلٰلًا طَيِّبًاۖ وَّاشْكُرُوْا نِعْمَتَ اللّٰهِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ اِيَّاهُ تَعْبُدُوْنَ

Then eat of what Allah has provided for you [which is] lawful and good. And be grateful for the favor of Allah, if it is [indeed] Him that you worship. (An-Nahl [16]: 114).

وَاِذْ تَاَذَّنَ رَبُّكُمْ لَىِٕنْ شَكَرْتُمْ لَاَزِيْدَنَّكُمْ وَلَىِٕنْ كَفَرْتُمْ اِنَّ عَذَابِيْ لَشَدِيْدٌ

And [remember] when your Lord proclaimed, 'If you are grateful, I will surely increase you [in favor]; but if you deny, indeed, My punishment is severe.' " (Ibrahim [14]: 7).

فَاذْكُرُوْنِيْٓ اَذْكُرْكُمْ وَاشْكُرُوْا لِيْ وَلَا تَكْفُرُوْنِ ࣖ

So, remember Me; I will remember you. And be grateful to Me and do not deny Me. (Al-Baqarah [2]: 152).

يٰٓاَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا كُلُوْا مِنْ طَيِّبٰتِ مَا رَزَقْنٰكُمْ وَاشْكُرُوْا لِلّٰهِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ اِيَّاهُ تَعْبُدُوْنَ

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. (Al-Baqarah [2]: 172).

عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : إِنَّ اللهُ يُحِبُّ إِذَا أَنْعَمَ عَلَى عَبْدِهْ نِعْمَةً أَنْ يَرَى أَثَرَ نِعْمَتِهِ عَلَيْهِ . رَوَاهُ الْبَيْهَقِيُّ

From Imran bin Hashin radliyallahu ‘anhu, that the Prophet (Muhammad) sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said, "Verily Allah is pleased to see the effect of the favor that He has given to His servants." The hadith was narrated by al-Baihaqi.

All readers! If we understand some of the verses of the Quran and hadith above, we can conclude the three main reasons why we should say the dua after eating as follows:

1. Islam obliges Muslims to thank Allah when they have had the pleasures described in several verses of the Quran and hadith above.
2. Eating is one of the pleasures that Allah has given us.

Three: there is a hadith that specifically explains that the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam said a dua after eating. I will explain that at the end of the discussion.

Before I explain the dua after eating which is the main topic in this article, I will quote one hadith that is specifically related to it. One hadith I am referring to is as follows:

From Abu Said al-Khudri radliyallahu 'anhu, that when the Prophet (Muhammad) sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam had eaten, he prayed, "Praise be to Allah who has fed us, given us water, and has made us among the Moslem people."
