Feeding a fasting person brings blessings equal to the fast without reducing the reward of the one who fasted. But the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) added something extra.

He taught a special prayer for the hosts who provide iftar. A dua that calls down angels and righteous people upon their food and their home.

# **Dua To Recite When Someone Invites You For Iftar**

This supplication is recorded in Sunan Ibn Majah. The Prophet (ﷺ) broke his fast with Sa'd bin Mu'adh and then said these words for him.

**Arabic:**
أَفْطَرَ عِنْدَكُمُ الصَّائِمُونَ وَأَكَلَ طَعَامَكُمُ الأَبْرَارُ وَصَلَّتْ عَلَيْكُمُ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ

**Transliteration:**
Aftara 'indakumus-saimun, wa akala ta'amakumul-abrar, wa sallat 'alaikumul-mala'ikah

**Meaning:**
May the fasting people break their fast with you, and the righteous eat your food, and the angels pray for blessing on you.

This dua carries three beautiful wishes for your host. It is about blessing their home with the presence of those who obey Allah. Fasting people carry a special status.

Their prayers are accepted. Their sins are forgiven. Having them in your home brings barakah through the walls. You are asking that their table never be empty of such blessed souls.

The Prophet (PBUH) said this to Sa'd bin Mu'adh, one of the greatest companions. Sa'd hosted the Prophet (PBUH) for iftar. And the Prophet (PBUH) responded with this beautiful prayer. It teaches you proper manners. When someone feeds you, you do not just say thank you and leave. You give them something that lasts. A dua that echoes in the heavens.

## How many times should you recite this dua?

- Recite this dua **once** every time someone provides you iftar.
- You can say it immediately after breaking your fast at their home or when you are leaving.

Ramadan is about giving and sharing. When you receive, your job is not just to eat. Your job is to pray for the giver.
