The answer

Drinking and eating while reclining is disliked unless there is a necessity, and physicians have prohibited it. It is reported that Hisham refrained from it. "Al-Hannan" (The Affectionate) and "Al-Mannan" (The Bestower) are two of Allah's names, and they have been mentioned in hadiths authenticated by Al-Albani.
