Feed a Fasting Person, for the sake of Allaah
Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuh,
The Messenger of Allaah (salallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said:
من فطر صائما كان له مثل أجره غير أنه لا ينقص من أجر الصائم شيئا
“Whoever feeds a fasting person will have a reward like that of the fasting person,
without any reduction in his reward.”
[At-Tirmidhi, authenticated by Al-Albani (rahimahullaah).]
Shaykh Muhammad bin Saalih Al-‘Uthaimeen (rahimahullaah) said: “Those who have the ability should strive to feed those who are fasting (when it’s time to break the fast) either in the masaajid or in other places. This is since whoever feeds a fasting person, he will receive the same reward as the one fasting. So if a person feeds his brothers who are fasting, he will receive the same reward as them. Therefore, those whom Allaah has granted wealth should take advantage of this opportunity to obtain a great reward.” [48 Su’aalan fis-Siyaam]
