Wahshi b. Harb, on his father’s authority, said his grandfather told of God's messenger's Companions saying, "Messenger of God, we eat but are not satisfied." He suggested that they ate separately, and when they replied that that was so he said, "If you gather together at your food and mention God’s name you will be blessed in it." Abu Dawud transmitted it.
Reported by Abu Dawud (No. 3764), Ibn Majah (No. 3286) and Ahmad (No. 15498). Cited in Mishkat al-Masabih (No. 4252).
They said: O Messenger of Allah, we eat but we do not get satiated. He said: "Perhaps you eat separately." They said: Yes. He then said: "Get together over your food and mention the name of Allah, so that it will be blessed for you."
عن وحشى بن حرب رضى الله عنه أن أصحاب رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قالوا: يا رسول الله ، إنا نأكل ولا نشبع قال: "فلعلكم تفترقون" قالوا: نعم. قال: فاجتمعوا على طعامكم، واذكروا اسم الله ، يبارك لكم فيه"…
