Re: Eating with your hand
Erm that’s not the point…some foods, i agree, can/should be eaten with the hands only (ie. samosas, finger foods, roti salan snacks) and some that are meant to be eaten with utensils. I just don’t think eating rice with my hands and licking it off my fingers is going to make me any better Muslim than the person who does do that.
With that being said, some foods I eat with my hands, some foods I don’t. If I’m alone I have no problems but not in front of other people. Since my husband doesn’t, I don’t.
No I don’t find it inappropriate or gross either unless that person is doing my threading.
