Dua for Breaking Fast
اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ صُمتُ وَعَلَى رِزقِكَ أَفطَرتُ
"Oh Allah I have fasted for Your sake and broken the fast upon Your provisions."
ذَهَبَ الظَّمأُ، وابْتَلَّتِ العُرُوقُ، وَثَبَتَ الأَجْرُ إِنْ شاءَ اللَّهُ تَعالى
"The thirst is gone, the veins are moistened, and the reward has been earned if Allah wills."
[Hadith Abu Dawud]
A fasting person will feel two types of happiness. The first is at the time of breaking the fast and the other is at the time of meeting with his or her Lord.
One should be conscious of Allah who has promised to send down blessings for the ones observing His fast. Avoid being so excited about eating that we forget The One providing these provisions.
Let’s be mindful and make heartfelt prayers, for the Prophet s.a.w. mentioned in a hadith narrated by Ibn Majah, “Indeed the prayer of the fasting person during the breaking of fast is not rejected.”
