It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abd Muzani (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "‘Aqiqah will be performed for the child, and no blood will be applied to his head."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ‘Aqiqah on his own behalf after his Prophethood.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Unload the burdens from the camels, for their forelegs are tied and their legs are also bound."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When you are traveling through green pastures, give the animals their due (i.e., let them graze), and when you are passing through drought-stricken land, move quickly, and travel at night, for the distance of the land becomes shorter at night. When you camp somewhere, do not set up camp in the middle of the road, because (such places at night) are the dwelling places of all kinds of animals."

Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that a donkey whose face had been branded was brought past the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Has the report not reached you that I have cursed the person who brands an animal on its face or strikes it on its face?" Then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) forbade doing so.

Salim bin Abdullah bin Umar narrates from his father, Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him), that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded that knives be sharpened, kept hidden from the animals, and when a person slaughters (an animal), he should do so quickly.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, blessing is in the middle of the bowl, so eat from the edges (of the plate) and do not eat from the middle."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar bin Abu Salamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he went to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and there was food before the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Son! Come near, mention the name of Allah (that is, say Bismillah), eat with your right hand, and eat from what is in front of you."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "When any one of you is eating food and a morsel falls from his hand, he should pick it up, clean off any dirt that may have stuck to it, and eat it, and not leave it for Satan. Also, he should not wipe his hand with a towel until he has licked it, because he does not know in which part of the food the blessing lies. (Remember that) Satan lies in wait for people or humans in everything, even at the time of eating. Therefore, no one should lift his plate until he has licked it himself or had someone else lick it, because there is blessing in the last part of the food."

Ibn Jurayj says: Abu al-Zubair informed me that he heard Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) say that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When a person eats food, he should lick his hand (before wiping or cleaning it with any cloth, etc.) or have it licked (by someone else), and he should not lift his plate until he has licked it or had it licked (by someone else), because there is blessing in the last part of the food."
