SHAFAQNA – It is narrated from Imam Hadi (AS) who said: Staying awake at night, makes sleeping more enjoyable; and eating less, makes food more delicious [1]. In this narration Imam Hadi (AS) pointed to two cases that can help people, especially the believers in order to enjoy their lives and improve the quality of their lives. One is to avoid too much sleep and spend a part of night praying to God; by doing so, the sleep can be more enjoyable afterwards. The other recommendation is to eat less; meaning if a person can get used to eating enough and avoid filling the stomach to the full, then as a consequence, food will taste more delicious to such a person.
