Sahih

حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْهِقْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ حَسَّانَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: لِيَأْكُلْ أَحَدُكُمْ بِيَمِينِهِ، وَلْيَشْرَبْ بِيَمِينِهِ، وَلْيَأْخُذْ بِيَمِينِهِ، وَلْيُعْطِ بِيَمِينِهِ، فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَأْكُلُ بِشِمَالِهِ، وَيَشْرَبُ بِشِمَالِهِ، وَيُعْطِي بِشِمَالِهِ، وَيَأْخُذُ بِشِمَالِهِ .

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Let one of you eat with his right hand and drink with his right hand, and take with his right hand and give with his right hand, for Satan eats with his left hand, drinks with his left hand, gives with his left hand and takes with his left hand.”
