It is narrated in Bukhari and Msulism that 'Umar bin Abu Salamah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:I was a boy under the care of Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and my hand would wander about in the dish. Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to me: "Little boy, mention Allah's Name (i.e., say Bismillah before you start eating), eat with your right hand and eat from what is near to you". I always followed this way of eating after this incident.[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
