The answer

The Prophetic commands covering and overturning vessels, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Close the doors, tie up the waterskins, overturn the vessels—or cover the vessels—and extinguish the lamps, for Satan does not open a closed door, untie a tied waterskin, nor uncover a vessel." Therefore, a vessel containing food or drink must be covered, and if it is empty, it should be overturned.
