Practice restraint and moderation while consuming or indulging in something. Strive for balance in life.

This hadith speaks to the importance of moderation in all aspects of life. It was narrated by Ya’la bin ‘Ata’ that he heard Sa’eed bin Al-Musayyab say, when a Bedouin asked him about a drink that had been cooked and reduced by half, “No, not until two-third has gone and one-third is left.” This teaches us that we should be mindful of how much we consume or indulge in something; it is important to practice restraint and moderation so as to avoid overindulgence. We should strive for balance in our lives so as to maintain our health and wellbeing.
