Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: It has spread among the general public that the statement of the fasting person when breaking his fast, “O Allah, for You I have fasted, and with Your provision I have broken my fast,” is a weak hadith. Is this correct?
Answer:
It is permissible to act upon a weak hadith in dhikr (remembrance of Allah), in sermons, and in encouraging good and warning against evil. It is permissible to act upon a weak hadith whose weakness has not reached an extreme degree. It is permissible to act upon it in matters of the virtues of deeds. Among these is: “O Allah, for You I have fasted, and with Your provision I have broken my fast. O Allah, You are the vast in forgiveness, so forgive me.” This is a sound supplication.
