Dua for Breaking the Fast During Ramadan

Ramadan is the best time for self-reflection. This is a month of blessings, carrying multiple spiritual benefits. Dua makes it easy for believers to achieve self-purification besides other Ramadan goals. As an Arabic word implying invocation or calling out, dua is a sincere supplication to beseech the Lord in all personal matters. Dua is a conversation between the creation and the Creator in which the believers put their needs before the Almighty Allah (SWT), asking His help to resolve their problems. The teachings of the faith in the noble Quran and hadith highlight the importance of dua in a Muslim’s life. Allah (SWT) says in the Quran:

“And your Lord says, ‘Call upon Me; I will respond to you.’ Indeed, those who disdain My worship will enter Hell [rendered] contemptible.” [40:60]
