Muslims cover their food as a recommended practice in Islam (Sunnah) to protect it from Shaytan (Satan), pests, and contaminants, particularly at night when a yearly illness is said to descend. It serves as a measure of hygiene and a spiritual safeguard against negative influences, ensuring the food remains pure and blessed.
