[~ Y A S M I N ~]

'Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu  Was Salaam `Ala Rasulillah'   ************************************************************************ 'Assalamu `Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh'.     PROPHET ﷺ REWARD OF FEEDING  A FASTING PERSON    PROPHET ﷺ  said...    “Whoever feeds the person who    is breaking his fast, he will have his reward    (for his fasting) without decreasing   anything from the reward of the fasting person.”  [Source:  Al-Tirmidhi, Ibn Maajah - Classed as Sahih by al Albaani] *******************************************************************************************    ALLAH~ [May HE be glorified and exalted] says...   'one of the characteristics of the believers who deserve     Paradise is that they feed others...'{!}    ALLAH ~ [Azza wa Jal ] says ~   “And they give food, in spite of their love for it   [or for the love of Him]    to the 'Miskeen' [the Poor]~ the Orphan,and the captive, saying...   ‘We feed you seeking Allah’s ( عزّ وجلّ‎)  countenance only.   we wish for no reward, nor thanks from you.  ‘Verily, We fear from our Lord a Day, hard and distressful,   that will make the faces look horrible    [from extreme dislike to it]..’  So Allah saved them from the evil of that Day, and    gave them 'Nadhrah' [a light of beauty] and joy .   and their recompense shall be Paradise,   and silken garments, because they were patient”  [Source: 'Qur`an'~ Surat 'Al-Insan' ~76~ A #'s 8 -12]  ==================================================================  The Prophet [Sal Allahu `Alaihi wa Sallam]   informed us in the 'Hadith' above,  saying that   whoever gives food to a fasting person to break his Fast    will have a reward like his without the fasting     person losing any reward...{!}  So, during the month of 'Ramadan' [and even during other months]    it is very virtuous and rewarding to feed others    who are breaking their fast...{!}  It is also very virtuous and rewarding to feed others in general.    PROPHET ﷺ said...   “ You will not enter Paradise until you truly believe,   and you  will not truly believe until you love one another.” [Source ~  Sahih Muslim]  In another narration from ‘Abd-Allah ibn ‘Umar  (Radi Allahu Anhu) related that a man asked  the   PROPHET~ [Sal Allahu `Alaihi wa Sallam]... “ What is the best thing in Islam ?”   PROPHET ﷺ  answered...  “Feeding others and giving the greeting of    'Salaam' to those whom you know and those   whom you do not know.”  (Source: Sahih al-Bukhari & Muslim)   Ibn Rajab  (Allah have mercy upon him) said in al-Fath (1/43):    “The 'Hadith' (mentioned above) makes the connection     between feeding others and spreading 'Salaam'   because this combines  two (2) good actions in both word and deed,   which is perfect good treatment ('Ihsan')    indeed, this is the best thing that one can do   in Islam, after the obligatory duties.”    A Little Note...  Many 'Hadiths' are reported regarding  the virtues of providing food for others to break their fast.   Feeding others in general brings a great reward to the one who does it...!    ALLAH~ (May HE be glorified and exalted ) states...    that one of the characteristics of the Believers who deserve   Paradise is that they feed others.  {'Alhamdullilah'} ~ My 'Salaams' to all ~ ~ Y a s m i n ~ Say, 'Indeed, my Prayer, my Rites of Sacrifice, my Living and my Dying are for ALLAH, Lord of the Worlds'. {'Qur`an'~Surat Al-'An`am -# 6-162.} {'In Shaa Allah'~'Aameen'} *****************************************************************
