Dua For Breaking Fast in Ramadan: The holy month of Ramadan is deeply cherished and held in high esteem by Muslims worldwide. During this month, individuals are called upon to practice self-discipline, patience, and piety.

During Ramadan, Muslims are required to participate in various religious practices, including reading the Quran and giving to those in need, in addition to fasting. Nonetheless, the central aspect of Ramadan is abstaining from food to acknowledge Allah’s blessings and show solidarity with those who are less fortunate.
Knowing the Dua for breaking the fast is crucial for every healthy Muslim during Ramadan since fasting is obligatory.

Dua for Breaking Fast
Reciting the dua for breaking the fast is an important practice before you break your fast. While it is often recommended to recite the dua in Arabic, it is not necessary. You can recite the dua in any language that you feel comfortable with, including English.
The purpose of the dua is to express gratitude to Allah and seek His acceptance of your fast. This can be done in any language as the intention and meaning behind the dua is what truly matters.
اللَّهُمَّ اِنِّى لَكَ صُمْتُ وَبِكَ امنْتُ وَعَليْكَ تَوَكّلتُ وَ عَلى رِزْقِكَ اَفْطَرْتُ
In English
Allahumma inni-laka-sumtu, wa bika-aamantu, wa alayka tawakkaltu, wa ala rizqika-aftartu.
Translation
Oh Allah! I have observed the fast for Your sake, and I have faith in You and rely on You, and I open my fast with the provision You have granted me.
Importance of Dua For Breaking Fast
According to a hadith reported by Ibn Majah, Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said that when a person who has been fasting breaks their fast, they have a supplication that is guaranteed to be accepted by Allah. The supplication is as follows: “O Allah, I beseech You, by Your encompassing mercy, to forgive me.”
Opening your fast with a small amount of food, such as dates and water, is a recommended Sunnah of the Prophet (ﷺ). It is important to make an intention or dua, either audibly or silently, when beginning any act of worship, including opening the fast.
Conclusion
During Ramadan, the act of fasting is imbued with the intention of seeking Allah’s forgiveness and blessings by refraining from food, sinful behavior, and all immoral activities. The purpose of making a dua while fasting is to sincerely beseech Allah to accept our worship and bestow its due reward upon us.
