Being able to eat and drink is a great blessing of Allah. How costly and difficult it is to digest one meal without having a stomach! We should thank Allah again and again for letting us digest many meals without having to go through these difficulties.

The Ability to Eat
Last Friday (April 9, 2004), we had the opportunity to visit a sick
brother in a Hospital in East York, Canada. This brother had an
infection in his stomach which caused it to explode. As a result, the
doctors had to remove half of his stomach through an operation. For
seven days, he is unable to eat or drink anything. Nutrients are being
provided to him by using specialized methods. During our visit, we told
him to be patient and pray to Allah for quick recovery. At one point,
the brother made a very important statement. He said, "Now I have
understood that if Allah doesn't want, we cannot eat even one grain of
rice."
Being able to eat and drink is a great blessing of Allah. How costly and difficult it is to digest one meal without having a stomach! We should thank Allah again and again for letting us digest many meals without having to go through these difficulties.
