"Almighty Allah (swt) releases from Hellfire one million persons in
the last hour everyday in the month of Ramadhan; therefore pray to
Almighty Allah (swt) to include you with these released ones"
It is advisable to postpone breaking
one's fast until the evening/night prayers have been performed
(after reciting the Magrib & Isha Prayer
- if offered together), unless
one is too weak to keep fasting or other people are
waiting for you to break the fast.(Ref
No 1759)
It is advisable
to begin breaking fast with dates.& It is advisable
to recite
Sura Qadr at the time of breaking
the fast.
It is
advisable to offer food to other fasting people even if with a single date
and a drink of water.
Allamah Hilli in al-Risalah al-Sa'diyyah has
narrated that
Imam Ja'far Sadiq (as) has said, "If
a believer treats
another believer with a single morsel of food in Ramadhan, Almighty
Allah (swt) will give him the reward of freeing thirty believing
slaves and his wishes will be granted."
Recite the
following supplications at the time of breaking fast:
It is advisable
to say the following at the first bite of food taken:
In the name of Allah, the Beneficient,
the Merciful, O He whose indulgence is boundless, forgive me.
BISMILLAHIR RAH'MAANIR RAH'EEM YAA WAASI—A'L
MAGHFIRATI IGFIR LEE
Recite the
Supplication of 'Allahumma Rabba Nuril Azeem (below)reported by
Sayyid ibn Tawus and al-Kaf'aimy. This supplication brings about
great merit. The
Holy Prophet (saws) recommended this dua to
Imam Ali (as) and said that Jibreel
(as) came to me and said," Whoever in the holy month of Ramadhan
before iftaar recites this dua, Allah (swt) answers his prayer,
accepts his prayer and fasting, grants his ten requirements,
forgives his sins, removes his grief's, makes his heart at ease,
grants his wishes, makes his deeds to ascend upward with the deeds
of prophets and righteous saints and on the Day of Judgement brings
him to HIS presence with his face illuminated like a bright moon."
Allahumma Rabba Nuril Azeem اللهم رب النور العظيم
