Do not eat or drink with your left hand .

EXPLANATIONS:
In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught us to avoid eating and drinking with our left hand. This is because it is associated with Satan, who also eats and drinks with his left hand. We should strive to do good deeds in order to please Allah, so we should not imitate the actions of Satan. It is important for us to remember that even small things like how we eat can have a big impact on our lives. We must always strive to do what pleases Allah in all aspects of our lives, including how we eat and drink.
