Islam and health: Hunger - Imam Ali (as)

Hunger is better than the humiliation of subjugation.

Keeping oneself hungry is the most beneficial cure, where as eating to one's fill increases maladies.

Hunger is better than subjugation.

Complement your food with hunger and discipline yourself with contentment.

The best condiment is hunger.

How good an assistant of piety hunger is.

How good an assistant in cutting down the [desires of the carnal] self and breaking its [bad] habitys hunger is!
