How to Break Your Fast The Right Way


By Muslim Media Practitioners


It is desirable to break the fast with fresh dates. If it is not available, use dried dates. And if both are not available, use water.


It is also desirable to take an odd number of dates.


In a Hadith narrated by Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him), he said, "Allah's Messenger (SAW) used to break his fast with fresh ripe dates before praying the Magrib prayer. If he does not get fresh dates, he will take dried dates, and if he does not get dried dates, he will take a drink of water" ( Sunan Abu Dawud, 2065)
