Undesirability of Eating in a Reclining Posture
Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I saw Messenger of Allah (PBUH) eating some dates while sitting on his buttocks, with his legs raised.[Muslim].


Commentary:
This Hadith sheds light on another sitting posture of Messenger of Allah (PBUH). But it betrays his uneasy state. In fact, when he was in a hurry he would be eager by eating a few dates so that he might be free to attend to some more important business. Also a report of Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) quoted by Muslim explains this state of mind of Messenger of Allah (PBUH).

باب كراهية الأكل متّكئاً
وعن أَنسٍ رضي اللَّه عنه قال: رَأَيْتُ رسول اللَّه صَلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم جالساً مُقْعِياً يَأْكُلُ تمْراً، رواه مسلم.«المُقْعِي» هو الذي يُلْصِقُ أليَتيهِ بالأرضِ، ويُنْصِبُ ساقَيْهِ.
