If hemust eat ( or according to another version "If a

human being cannot resist the temptation..."), thenlet him use one-third for food, one-third for drinkand one-third for breathing".

This means that it must have a mixture ofthe different types of food which God has graciouslyprovided for His creation, so that it satisfies all thebody needs in terms of proteins, fat, carbohydrates,salts and vitamins. Most of these are mentioned in

the Quran: He created cattle which give you warmth,benefits and food to eat. (l6:5) It is He who subduedthe seas, from which you eat fresh fish. (16:l4)
