The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, abandoned eating from a dining table (khawan) and thin bread out of humility and asceticism. Eating from a dining table is permissible, and one who does so should not be criticized. If one is invited to a meal served on a table, he should eat with them. However, if he explains to them the practice of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and reminds them of asceticism, that would be good.
