Authentic Du’aa during Breaking the Fast – Dr Zakir Naik
RDDZ-8-10
Yusuf Chambers: The first question from the audience, he asks, he or she could be different duas are recited at the beginning of the fast during the Suhoor which is the most authentic?
Dr. Zakir: As far as reciting any dua, I do not know of any Sahih Hadith in which the Prophet has recited any dua at the Suhoor time or any of the Sahabas has mentioned any dua, I don’t know of any. In fact the Prophet said, it’s mentioned in the
Hadith of Tirmidhi in the Book of Fasting Hadith no. 730 Our beloved Prophet said that
“Anyone who has not intended to fast before dawn there is no fast for him”
The Prophet also said Hadith of Sunan Nasai in the Book of Fasting Hadith no. 2331 our beloved Prophet Muhammad, (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) said
“There is no fast for a person who has not intended to fast the night before”
That means intention is compulsory for fasting. It should be done before the break of dawn or as the Hadith says that the night before means anytime before the break of dawn you can intend. But when you intend you need not say it loudly, its not required because you intend in the heart. So the main thing is you intend in your heart that you’re gonna fast and that’s sufficient. When you want to pray you intend, you do Niyah for praying and you pray. You don’t have to say it loudly. So same way you don’t have to say that I intend to fast but many people, many of the Muslims have invented words in Arabic or in different languages that I intend to fast tomorrow etc, etc. which we don’t find in any of the Sahih Hadith and neither do we find in the sayings of the Prophet or of the Sahabas. So the best is to intend in your heart that’s it. And there is no particular dua for Suhoor.
Yusuf Chambers: Okay, that’s very enlightening answer. Hope that answers the question of the participant in the audience. Next question from our audience, if a person has the intention of waking for the Suhoor and unfortunately he or she doesn’t manage to wake up is his or her fast still accepted?
Dr. Zakir: If a person before sleeping has an intention of fasting tomorrow and he has the intention to wake up for Suhoor but could not get up for Suhoor because he overslept etc. Having Suhoor is not Fard, it’s a Sunnah. Our beloved Prophet said in
Sahih Bukhari Vol. no. 3 Book of Fasting Hadith no. 1923, he said that
“In the Suhoor is a blessing”
It’s a Sunnah, recommended Sunnah but if person sleeps it’s not a Fard because he had the intention of getting up, he had the intention to fast, his fast will be accepted.
