When breaking the fast - Iftar
اللَّهُمَّ اِنِّى لَكَ صُمْتُ وَبِكَ امنْتُ [وَعَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ] وَعَلَى رِزْقِكَ اَفْطَرْتُ
O Allah! I fasted for You and I believe in You [and I put my trust in You] and I break my fast with Your sustenance
["wa ‘alayka tawakkaltu" is quoted in some books of knowledge - but not all, hence it is in brackets]
[Abu Dawud]
Transliteration:
Allahumma Inni laka sumtu wa bika amantu [wa alayka tawakkalto] wa ‘ala rizqika aftartu
eselamu alejkum akhi barekallahu fike for this dua, I am greateful for to you.
one of your Muslims brothers.

Aslam-o-alaikum brothers,
i would like to know one thing about the iftaar dua and that is, when do you actually recite the dua?
is it after you have broken your fast or just before breaking it?
Jazak Allah Kher.

Salams
Please pray I get well soon (my voice too) and then Insha’Allah I might record a recitation of the du’a for you in order to assist memorisation.

Jazak Allah Khair, I said this du’a in English but now I’m learning my du’as in Arabic. Thanks for the helpful post.
