Ahadith – On Cooling Food Before Consumption

Darami relates from Asmaa radiallahu anha that when Tharid (a Arabian dish that the Beloved Prophet sallallahu alayhe wasallam liked) was brought, she’d order that it be covered so that the steam may subside and would say “I have heard from the Beloved Prophet sallallahu alayhe wasallam that by doing this barakah (blessing) is increased.”

From Haakim, Jaabir radiallahu anhu, and from Abu Daud Asmaa radiallahu anha relate that he sallallahu alayhe wasallam would say “Let the food cool down because there is no barakah (blessing) in hot food.”
