The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَن المِقدامِ بن معدي كرب عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «كيلوا طَعَامك يُبَارك لكم فِيهِ» . رَوَاهُ البُخَارِيّ
Al-Miqdam b. Ma'dikarib reported the Prophet as saying, “If you measure out your food* you will be blessed in it."
*This is said to refer to such matters as buying and selling, and taking care that suitable portions are given to one’s children.
Bukhari transmitted it.
