@Hadithoftheday Encouraged to break the fast as soon as Maghrib arrives.

Narrated from Sahl ibn Sa’d R.A, that the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ said: “The people will continue to do well so long as they hasten to break the fast.” (Bukhari, Muslim)

@Hadithoftheday Aisha R.A was asked about a man among the companions of Muhammad ﷺ – ‘Abd-Allaah ibn Mas’ood – who hastened to pray Maghrib and break the fast. She said: This is what the Messenger of Allah used to do. (Muslim)

@Hadithoftheday Narrated Abu Hurayrah R.A:

The Prophet ﷺ said: Religion will continue to prevail as long as people hasten to break the fast, because the Jews and the delay Christians doing so. - (Abu Dawood 2353)

@Hadithoftheday There is no reward for delaying breaking the fast, rather it is better to hasten to break the fast as soon as the sun has set; this brings a more complete reward.
Thus we are urged to hasten to break the fast as soon as it is established that the sun has set

@Hadithoftheday There are number of reasons for why it is recommended to hasten to break the fast:
1. To be different from the Jews and Christians.

2. To follow the Sunnah.

3. So as not to make the day longer and take from the night. +

@Hadithoftheday 4. It is kinder to the fasting person and gives him more strength for worship.

5. To hasten to eat that which Allah has permitted to him, for Allah is generous and the one who is generous likes to see people enjoying his generosity.

@Hadithoftheday Abu Hurairah R.A reported:
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:

Allah Almighty said: The most beloved among my servants are those who are quickest to break their fast. (Tirmidhī 700)

@Hadithoftheday Breaking the fast early does not mean that it is terminated before the prescribed time.
It means that fast must be broken without any delay after the sunset. One should not delay it for the mere reason that the rigour one has gone through in the fast should be enhanced further
