There&#8217;s no doubt that during Ramadan, we eagerly await the moment of iftar, that blessed time when we break our fast after a long day of obedience and worship. But beyond the joy of quenching thirst and satisfying hunger, there lies a great moment where duas are accepted and it&#8217;s sunnah to say our dua for breaking fast<\/p>\n<p>The real issue is that we see people saying inauthentic dua when breaking fast in Ramadan, ascribing it to our Prophet. People don&#8217;t really know the authentic dua for breaking fast, and this calls for attention. Whenever a Sunnah comes from our Prophet, it should be done as he did it, and the dua for breaking fast is not an exception. In shaa Allah, we are going to clarify the authentic dua when breaking fast in this article today.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"What Is The Authentic Dua For Breaking Fast?

Some consider it weak <strong>(Da\u2019if)<\/strong>, while others consider it a good practice. It\u2019s important to prioritize the most authentic supplications to ensure your worship aligns with the Sunnah.

The Prophet Muhammad (\ufdfa) warned against adding to or altering the religion. He said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>\u201cWhoever introduces something into this matter of ours that is not part of it will have it rejected.\u201d<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>(Sahih al-Bukhari)<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Prophet (\ufdfa) warned against attributing false statements to him, stating:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong data-start=\"1434\" data-end=\"1516\">\u201cWhoever tells a lie against me deliberately, let him take his place in Hell.\u201d<\/strong> (Sahih Bukhari 109).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>By sticking to authentic dua for breaking fast, we ensure that our worship is sincere and in line with the teachings of the Prophet (\ufdfa) and not introducing innovations <strong>(bid\u2019ah)<\/strong> into worship. It\u2019s not just about the words we say but about the intention and authenticity behind them. Since we have learned the authentic dua when breaking fast, that should suffice for us.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"654\" data-end=\"1044\">Let us revive this Sunnah and make our iftar moments a time of gratitude and sincere prayer. As we strive to follow the Sunnah and deepen our connection with Allah, let\u2019s make the most of every moment, especially during Ramadan. May Allah accept our fasts, answer our duas, and grant us success in this life and the next.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1046\" data-end=\"1372\" data-is-last-node=\"\">May Allah accept our fasts, answer our duas, and grant us His mercy and forgiveness.
