Man o Salwa is a meal which was gifted to Bani Israel, Bani Israel were the people during the time of Prophet Musa AS. The people of Bani Israel requested Prophet Musa AS to ask Allah for a special meal to fulfill their hunger.
The Quran and Hadith claim that Man o Salwa was presented to the people of Bani Israel.
How does the food Man o Salwa taste?
Muslims have grown up listening to Quranic stories of Bani Israel and how Allah treated them. All of us are aware that Man and Salwa are the food of Jannah that Allah sent for Bani Israel. So here is what it’s tasted like;
Man
Man meaning a type of sweet Man was like dew drops that can be found on trees, plants, and rocks. After that, it is used into sweet honey which they pick up and savor with. Man used to descend on the as snow descends it is sweeter than honey and whiter than snow.
Salwa
Salwa was a kind of Bird, a quail, People used to catch it and turn it into roasted meat. It was such a blessing to eat the roasted meat of Quail which was indeed a blessing for Bani Israel after Prophet Musa AS prayed to Allah.
Only Allah knows the best how Man and Salwa tasted like, as we can not imagine the sweetness more than honey and whiter than milk, as it is above our heads.
Some scholars claim that Man was Honey. And only Allah knows what he had sent to the nation of Bani Israel. There are some sayings and narrations on what Man and Salwa were but the words have been changed throughout time. But indeed it was a pure blessing to Bani Israel.
As per the Quran, the people of Bani Israel were fed up eating the same food over and over again so Allah blessed them with something which he had never sent to any other nation in the past but still, the Bani Israel nation was very unthankful towards Allah.
