Sunan Abi Dawud 2348 (Book 14, Hadith 36) #22639
Eating and Drinking Until Red Light Spreads Horizontally

SUMMARY: Eating and drinking should not be stopped until the red light spreads horizontally.

Narrated Talq ibn Ali al-Yamami: The Messenger of Allah said: Eat and drink; let not the white and ascending light prevent you from (eating and drinking); so eat and drink until the red light spreads horizontally.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى، حَدَّثَنَا مُلاَزِمُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ، حَدَّثَنِي قَيْسُ بْنُ طَلْقٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ كُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا وَلاَ يَهِيدَنَّكُمُ السَّاطِعُ الْمُصْعِدُ فَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا حَتَّى يَعْتَرِضَ لَكُمُ الأَحْمَرُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ هَذَا مِمَّا تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ أَهْلُ الْيَمَامَةِ

Eat & Drink Until The Red Light Spreads Horizontally

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about eating and drinking. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that people should not stop eating and drinking when they see a white light, but instead they should continue to eat and drink until the red light spreads horizontally. This means that people should not stop their activities just because of a white light, but rather wait for the red light to spread before stopping what they are doing. The values taught in this hadith are patience, perseverance, self control, discipline, obedience to Allah's commands, and respect for time limits. It also teaches us that we must be mindful of our actions at all times so as to ensure we do not miss out on any opportunities or blessings from Allah SWT.
