Sahih Muslim 2024b (Book 36, Hadith 149) #12378
The Forbidden Practice of Eating and Drinking While Standing

SUMMARY: It is forbidden to drink while standing and it is even more detestable to eat while standing.

Anas reported that Allah's Apostle forbade that a person should drink while standing. Qatada reported: We said to him: What about eating? Thereupon he (Anas) said: That is even worse and more detestable (abominable).
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الأَعْلَى، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ أَنَّهُ نَهَى أَنْ يَشْرَبَ الرَّجُلُ قَائِمًا ‏.‏ قَالَ قَتَادَةُ فَقُلْنَا فَالأَكْلُ فَقَالَ ذَاكَ أَشَرُّ أَوْ أَخْبَثُ
