Breaking the Fast with Dates الإفطار بالتمر [I]

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم . Regarding the iftar meal, it is to break your first as soon as it is permissible to do so. The Prophet Muhammad ‎ صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم would hasten to break his fast. Sahl ibn Sa'd ‎ رضي الله عنه reported that the Prophet said: ‎ لا يزال الناس بخير ما عجلوا الفطر ‎"The people will not cease to be upon good as long as they hasten in breaking the fast," (Ahmad, Bukhari, Muslim and Tirmidzee/‎al Jamee' ash Shagheer II/205). It is reported that the Prophet would also break his fasts with dates. Anas ibn Maalik said: ‎ كان رسول الله صلي الله عليه وآله وسلم يفطر علي رطبات قبل أن يصلي ، فإن لم تكن رطبات فعلي تمرات ، فإن لم تكن حسا حسوات من ماء ‎"The Messenger of Allah used to break his fast with fresh dates before he prayed. If he did not find fresh dates then with dried dates. If there were no dried dates then with a few of water," (Sunan Abu Dawood, I/528, Daar al Fikr Beirut, I, ‎1990M-1410H).
