The du‘ā for breaking the fast, what it is broken with, and the Qur’ān’s verses on the fast, from the Sabīl library, each with its source.
AI ne ya rubuta · ana jiran bitar malamai+
AI ne ya rubuta kalmomin wannan maƙala daga laburaren Sabīl da tushensa, kuma AI ne ya duba su ta hanyar kwatanta su da waɗannan. Babu malamin da ya yi mata bita tukuna.

The fast ends at nightfall, which the library’s card gives as sunset, and the narrations give the moment its words: a short du‘ā that the thirst has gone and the reward is certain, if Allah wills. This page explains that du‘ā and where the Sabīl library has it, what the library says the fast is broken with, and what the Qur’ān says about the fast and about supplication. Each entry is shown from the library with its Arabic, its meaning and the source and grade the library gives; the narrations are listed by number at the end. Under some verses the page also shows the notes of that edition; they are the edition’s words, not this page’s, and this page has not checked them. It does not say what breaks a fast or when exactly the fast ends at your place: those are rulings and local questions, and are for a scholar and your masjid.
The fast in the Qur’ān
The Qur’ān prescribes the fast as it was prescribed for those before, so that the believers may become righteous.
Yã ku waɗanda suka yi ĩmãni! An wajabta[1] azumi a kanku kamar yadda aka wajabta shi a kan waɗanda suke daga gabãninku, tsammãninku, zã ku yi taƙawa,
[1] Bayãnin hukuncin azumi da darajar watan Ramalãna wanda aka saukar da Alƙur'ãni a cikinsa.
Alƙur’ani 2:183Hausa Translation - Abu Bakr Jumi · QuranEnc.com · version 1.2.2
It sets the day of the fast between two edges: eating and drinking are allowed until the light of dawn is distinct from the darkness of night, and the fast is completed until nightfall.
An halatta a gare ku, a daren azumi, yin jima'i[1] zuwa ga matanku sũ tufa ne a gare ku, kuma kũ tufa ne a gare su, Allah Yã sani lalle ne ku kun kasance kuna yaudarar kanku.

Kuma ku ci kuma ku sha har sĩlĩli fari ya bayyana a gare ku daga sĩlĩli baƙi daga alfijiri, sa'an nan kuma ku cika azumi zuwa ga dare.

Alƙur’ani 2:187Hausa Translation - Abu Bakr Jumi · QuranEnc.com · version 1.2.2
And in the middle of the verses on fasting it says that Allah is near and answers the call of the one who calls on Him.
Kuma idan bãyiNa suka tambaye ka daga gare Ni, to, lalle Ni Makusanci ne. Ina karɓa kiran mai kira idan ya kirã Ni.[1] Sabõda haka su nẽmi karɓawaTa, kuma su yi ĩmãni da Ni: tsammãninsu, su shiryu.

The du‘ā on the Pocket Companion’s Ramaḍān card
The Hijri Companion set of the Pocket Companion has a card headed “Ramaḍān”, in three parts.
Daftarin fassara: na’ura ce ta yi shi daga Larabci da Turanci, kuma malami ko edita ɗan harshen bai karanta shi ba tukuna. Inda wani layi bai fito fili ba, ku nuna Turancin, ku kuma dogara da Larabcin.

04Ramadan
Watan
Azumi daga alfijir zuwa faɗuwar rana · Tarawihi bayan Isha · a nemi Lailatul Ƙadari a dararen mara na goman ƙarshe · i’tikafi a goman ƙarshe · Zakkar fidda kai kafin sallar Idi.
The first part, “The month”, gives the month in one line: the fast, tarāwīḥ, seeking Laylat al-Qadr, iʿtikāf and Zakāt al-Fiṭr, each with the time the card gives it. The library cites the line to al-Bukhārī and Muslim with the grade ṣaḥīḥ.
The second, “Breaking the fast”, is the du‘ā of ifṭār: one short sentence saying that the thirst has gone, the veins are moistened, and the reward is certain, if Allah wills. The library cites it to Abū Dāwūd with the grade ḥasan. In that narration Ibn ʿUmar reports that the Prophet ﷺ said it when he broke his fast. The source line ends with the words “break on dates, or water”.
The third, “Laylat al-Qadr”, is a du‘ā that calls on Allah as Most Forgiving, who loves forgiveness, and asks for forgiveness. The library cites it to at-Tirmidhī and Ibn Mājah with the grade ṣaḥīḥ. At-Tirmidhī calls his narration ḥasan ṣaḥīḥ; of the later scholars the app’s ḥadīth dataset names, three grade each narration ṣaḥīḥ or ḥasan ṣaḥīḥ and one, Zubayr ʿAlī Zaʾī, grades both weak. In both, ʿĀ’ishah asks the Prophet ﷺ what she should say on that night if she knew it or came upon it, and is taught the du‘ā; Ibn Mājah’s wording is the card’s, and at-Tirmidhī’s has one word more. The night itself has an article of its own.
The Maghrib row of the Ramaḍān poster
The Ramaḍān poster sets the fasting day out in numbered rows. Row 04 is headed “Maghrib — break the fast at once”, and has the same du‘ā with its meaning, then two more sentences: what the fast is broken with, fresh dates, or dried, or water; and a sentence on the supplication of the one who is fasting, shown with the row below.
Daftarin fassara: na’ura ce ta yi shi daga Larabci da Turanci, kuma malami ko edita ɗan harshen bai karanta shi ba tukuna. Inda wani layi bai fito fili ba, ku nuna Turancin, ku kuma dogara da Larabcin.
Layukan da suka shafi hukunci ana nuna su koyaushe tare da Turancin bugu a ƙasansu. Layin da daftarinsa bai wuce bincike ba ana nuna shi da Turanci kaɗai.
04Magariba — ku buɗe baki nan takeMaghrib — break the fast at once
Dhahabaẓ-ẓama’, wa-btallatil-‘urūq, wa thabatal-ajru in shā’allāh
Ƙishirwa ta tafi, jijiyoyi sun jiƙa, kuma lada ta tabbata, in Allah Ya so. Ɗanyen dabino, ko busasshe, ko ruwa. Addu’ar mai azumi lokacin buɗe-baki ba a mayar da ita.
Turancin bugu, ana nuna shi koyaushe:
The thirst is gone, the veins are moistened, and the reward is certain, if Allah wills. Fresh dates, or dried, or water. The supplication of the fasting one at breaking is not turned back.
Abu Dawud · hasan; Tirmizi · hasan
Layukan da ke da gefe mai ɗigo-ɗigo su ne yadda ake karanta Larabcin, an fitar da su bisa ƙa’ida daga wasulansa. Ba daga littattafan da aka buga suke ba, kuma ba a duba su ba: inda suka bambanta da Larabcin, Larabcin ne daidai.
The row’s source line gives Abū Dāwūd and at-Tirmidhī, each with the grade ḥasan. The narration of Anas in both books says that the Prophet ﷺ broke his fast before praying with fresh dates, and if there were none with dried dates, and if there were none with a few sips of water. At-Tirmidhī has a narration of three whose supplication is not turned back, the fasting person among them. In its Arabic it is the fasting person until he breaks his fast; the English on sunnah.com has it at the time he breaks it, which is the wording of another narration of at-Tirmidhī’s, whose chain he calls not strong. At-Tirmidhī calls the first ḥasan, which is the grade the poster gives; later scholars differ on it, and some of them grade it weak.
The heading’s “at once” is the poster’s own. The narration of Sahl ibn Saʿd in al-Bukhārī and Muslim says that people remain on the right path as long as they hasten the breaking of the fast. How the moment of sunset is fixed where you are is a question of the local timetable: see the Ramaḍān screen, below.
The row before it: guarding the tongue
The poster’s row 03 is headed “Through the day — guard the tongue”. It says what to say to someone who abuses you or picks a quarrel, a short phrase saying that one is fasting, and ends with a sentence about false speech. The library cites the row to al-Bukhārī with the grade ṣaḥīḥ. In al-Bukhārī, Abū Hurayrah reports both: that the one fasting, if someone fights him or abuses him, should say twice that he is fasting; and that Allah has no need of the food and drink given up by one who does not give up false speech and acting on it.
Daftarin fassara: na’ura ce ta yi shi daga Larabci da Turanci, kuma malami ko edita ɗan harshen bai karanta shi ba tukuna. Inda wani layi bai fito fili ba, ku nuna Turancin, ku kuma dogara da Larabcin.
Layukan da suka shafi hukunci ana nuna su koyaushe tare da Turancin bugu a ƙasansu. Layin da daftarinsa bai wuce bincike ba ana nuna shi da Turanci kaɗai.
03A tsawon yini — ku kiyaye harshe
إِنِّي صَائِمٌ
Innī ṣā’im
Idan wani ya zage ku ko ya nemi faɗa da ku, ku ce innī ṣā’im — ina azumi. Wanda bai bar faɗar ƙarya ba, Allah ba Shi da buƙatar barinsa abinci da abin sha.
Turancin bugu, ana nuna shi koyaushe:
If someone abuses you or picks a quarrel, say innī ṣā’im — I am fasting. Whoever does not leave false speech, Allah has no need of his leaving food and drink.
Bukhari · sahihi
Layukan da ke da gefe mai ɗigo-ɗigo su ne yadda ake karanta Larabcin, an fitar da su bisa ƙa’ida daga wasulansa. Ba daga littattafan da aka buga suke ba, kuma ba a duba su ba: inda suka bambanta da Larabcin, Larabcin ne daidai.
The library’s Ramaḍān cards also have a card headed “Suḥūr & ifṭār”. The library’s own checking has not settled a question about one of its lines, so it is linked here and not quoted.

Ramaḍān, the app’s Ramaḍān screen, lists each day of the month at your place with a time under “Ifṭār”. The time is worked out on your device; in the words of the screen’s own note, it is “the start of Maghrib as calculated for your place, with no margin added”. The note ends: “Where your masjid announces its own times, follow those.”
