If you have ever worked in a kitchen you may have heard about the 5 second rule, a piece of food falls to the floor and if under 5 seconds its ok to serve, now I know most of you are probably disgusted to learn this but the Prophet(pbuh) said " if a morsel belonging to one of you falls down, then let him take it remove any filth that is on it and eat it and let him not leave it for the shaitann..." (muslim)
We must remember that shaitaan is always with us, we should understand how unacceptable wasting food is and realize the blessing that may be in the food we were about to throw away. Common sense must apply to this rule if it falls in something we cannot identify just let it go.
