"Almighty Allah (swt) releases from Hellfire one million persons in the last hour everyday in the month of Ramadhan; therefore pray to Almighty Allah (swt) to include you with these released ones"
It is advisable to postpone breaking one's fast until the evening/night prayers have been performed (after reciting the Magrib & Isha Prayer - if offered together), unless one is too weak to keep fasting or other people are waiting for you to break the fast.(Ref No 1759)
It is advisable to begin breaking fast with dates.& It is advisable to recite Sura Qadr at the time of breaking the fast.
It is advisable to offer food to other fasting people even if with a single date and a drink of water. Allamah Hilli in al-Risalah al-Sa'diyyah has narrated that Imam Ja'far Sadiq (as) has said, "If a believer treats another believer with a single morsel of food in Ramadhan, Almighty Allah (swt) will give him the reward of freeing thirty believing slaves and his wishes will be granted."
Recite the following supplications at the time of breaking fast:
O my Allah, for Thee, I fast, and with the food Thou gives me I break the fast, and I rely on Thee.
ALLAAHUMMA LAKA S'UMTU WA A'LAA RIZQIKA AFT'ARTUWA A'LAYKA TAWAWKKALTU
It has been narrated that Imam Ali (as) used to say the following when he would break his fast:
In the name of Allah, O Allah, we fast, and with the food Thou gives us we break the fast, an obligation we fulfill, and Thou art Hearer, Knower
BISMILLAH ALAAHUMMA LAKA S'UMNAA WA A'LAA RIZQIKA AFT'ARNAA FA—TAQABBAL MINNAA INNAKA ANTAS SAMEE—U'L'A'LEEM
It is advisable to say the following at the first bite of food taken:
In the name of Allah, the Beneficient, the Merciful, O He whose indulgence is boundless, forgive me.
BISMILLAHIR RAH'MAANIR RAH'EEM YAA WAASI—A'L MAGHFIRATI IGFIR LEE
Recite the Supplication of 'Allahumma Rabba Nuril Azeem (below)reported by Sayyid ibn Tawus and al-Kaf'aimy. This supplication brings about great merit. The Holy Prophet (saws) recommended this dua to Imam Ali (as) and said that Jibreel (as) came to me and said," Whoever in the holy month of Ramadhan before iftaar recites this dua, Allah (swt) answers his prayer, accepts his prayer and fasting, grants his ten requirements, forgives his sins, removes his grief's, makes his heart at ease, grants his wishes, makes his deeds to ascend upward with the deeds of prophets and righteous saints and on the Day of Judgement brings him to HIS presence with his face illuminated like a bright moon."
Allahumma Rabba Nuril Azeem اللهم رب النور العظيم
