Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu Please find what so clarification on solat. In my upbringing I was told that when the iqama is said you have to leave everything you are doing for the prayer but today someone quote an Hadith for me that:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "If the Iqama for (`Isha') prayer is proclaimed and supper is served, take your supper first."
(Sahih al-Bukhari and other variations in Sahih Muslim, Sahih al-Bukhari and elsewhere)
The prophet of Allah said 'if dinner is ready and iqama is said, you should start with the dinner first'
So I want to ask is eating food better than praying
Jazakumul llahu khayran
far bin
Amr bin Umaiya: My father said, "I saw Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) eating a piece of meat from the shoulder of a sheep and he was called for the prayer. He stood up, put down the knife and prayed but did not perform ablution.''
