Hadith of the Day

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنه قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ:

“مَنْ فَطَّرَ صَائِمًا كَانَ لَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِهِ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَجْرِ الصَّائِمِ شَيْئًا”

Transliteration:

An Abi Hurayrata radhiyallahu ‘anhu qal: Qala Rasulullah ﷺ:

“Man fattara saaiman kana lahu mithlu ajrihi ghayra annahu la yanqusu min ajri as-sa’imi shay’an.”

Translation:

Abu Huraira (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

“Whoever gives food for a fasting person to break his fast, he will have a reward like theirs, without diminishing anything from the reward of the fasting person.”

— [Sunan At-Tirmidhi 807]

Reflection:

This hadith highlights the immense reward of providing iftar to a fasting person. Even if you cannot offer a full meal, sharing dates or water brings the same reward without reducing the fasting person’s reward.

Show Kindness to Orphans & the Needy

The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said:

How to Practice This Today:

Donate to an orphanage or sponsor an orphan.
Prepare or distribute meals for people in need in your community.
Spend time with an orphan or help a child in need.
Make dua for orphans and the less fortunate around the world.

By caring for orphans and people experiencing poverty, we earn immense rewards and bring joy to those in need. May Allah accept our deeds. Ameen.

Day 10 Tahajjud (Qiyamul Layl)

As we approach Day 10, don’t forget the power of Tahajjud (night prayer). The quiet hours of the night are a special time to draw closer to Allah, ask for His mercy, and pray for all your needs. Make the most of this blessed time in your Ramadan journey.

How to Perform Tahajjud:

The best time for Tahajjud is in the last third of the night before Suhoor.
You may offer a minimum of two rakats and as many as 12 rakats, including Witr.
After completing your prayer, make personal duas, seeking Allah’s mercy, forgiveness, and blessings.

O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of God is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And God has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things). ~ Quran 49:13
