Excellence of Dinner and Undesirability of Ignoring it
Al-Kāfi|Volume 6|Book 5|Chapter 43
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ جَمِيلِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ تَرْكُ الْعَشَاءِ مَهْرَمَةٌ وَ يَنْبَغِي لِلرَّجُلِ إِذَا أَسَنَّ أَلَّا يَبِيتَ إِلَّا وَ جَوْفُهُ مُمْتَلِئٌ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ .
3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Jamil ibn Salih who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said, ’Neglecting dinner is senility, thus it is necessary for an aged man to go to sleep when his stomach is full of food.’”
