حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ سُلَيْمٍ الْكِنَانِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ جَابِرٍ الطَّائِيُّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْمِقْدَامَ بْنَ مَعْدِي كَرِبَ الْكِنْدِيَّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ:

مَا مَلَأَ ابْنُ آدَمَ وِعَاءً شَرٌّ مِنْ بَطْنٍ، حَسْبُ ابْنِ آدَمَ أُكُلَاتٌ يُقِمْنَ صُلْبَهُ، فَإِنْ كَانَ لَا مَحَالَةَ، فَثُلُثٌ طَعَامٌ، وَثُلُثٌ شَرَابٌ، وَثُلُثٌ لِنَفَسِهِ

✧ I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "The son of Adam fills no vessel worse than his stomach. A few morsels that keep his back upright are sufficient for the son of Adam; but if he must, then one-third for food, one-third for drink, and one-third for his breath."
