Duaa for Iftar (Supplication for Breaking the Fast)
When breaking the fast at iftar, it is recommended to say a specific duaa (supplication). One of the most common and authentic supplications reported from the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is:
Commonly Recited Dua at Iftar:
اللهم لك صمت، وعلى رزقك أفطرت
Allahumma laka sumtu, wa ‘ala rizqika aftartu.
"O Allah, I have fasted for You, and with Your provision, I break my fast."
(Abu Dawood 2358)
Another Authentic Dua at Iftar:
ذهب الظمأ وابتلت العروق وثبت الأجر إن شاء الله
Dhahaba al-zama’, wabtallat al-‘urooq, wa thabata al-ajru in sha’ Allah.
"The thirst has gone, the veins have been moistened, and the reward is confirmed, if Allah wills."
(Abu Dawood 2357, Hasan by Al-Albani)
