Eating Habits of Muslims and Non-Believers

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said that a Muslim eats with one intestine, while a non-believer eats with seven.

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zinad from al-Araj that Abu Hurayra said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'The muslim eats in one intestine, and the kafir eats in seven!' "
