Musnad Ahmad 16639

Translation

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ entered upon me while I was eating with my left hand, and I was a left-handed woman. He struck my hand, and the morsel fell. He said: “Do not eat with your left hand, for God, Blessed and Exalted, has made a right hand for you,” or he said: “God, Mighty and Majestic, has released your right hand for you.” He said: “My left hand became my right hand, and I never ate with it after that.”
