Be content with what you have been given by Allah and practice moderation in your consumption so as not to waste or overindulge unnecessarily .

This hadith speaks to the importance of moderation in wealth and food, even when one has been blessed with a great deal of bounty. It was narrated by Abdullah bin Zurair that he entered upon Ali bin Abi Talib on the day of Eid al-Adha, and he brought some Khazeerah to them. When Abdullah suggested that they make a dish from ducks instead, Ali reminded him that he heard the Messenger of Allah say “It is not permissible for the caliph to take more from the wealth of Allah than two dishes”. This hadith teaches us that we should be content with what we have been given by Allah, no matter how much it may be; it also teaches us to practice moderation in our consumption so as not to waste or overindulge unnecessarily. We should remember this lesson when we are presented with an abundance or variety of food or other blessings so as not to forget our gratitude for what we have been given by Allah.
