Question:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Giving someone iftar or sehri if there are three kinds of foods in it (ie fruits, meat, and date) all three bought from three different people.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So if the person who had fast, ate all foods but started from date. So the sawab of giving iftar and sehri will get the only person who gave date or everyone?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

One of the ways to increase rewards in the month of Ramadan is to provide others with food and drink to begin and end the fast (Sahur and Iftar)<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It is reported that the Messenger of Allah said: “Whoever provides the food for a fasting person to break his fast with, then for him is the same reward as his (the fasting person’s), without anything being diminished from the reward of the fasting person.” (Jami’ at Tirmdhi, hadith # 807)[1]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It is permissible to provide different types of food for Sahur and Iftar, however dates and water would be preferable whenever available.<\/span><\/p>\n

Regarding food that used to begin the fast (Sahur); Abu Huraira reported Allah\u2019s messenger as saying, \u201cHow good is the believer\u2019s meal of dates shortly before dawn!\u201d (Mishkat al Masabih, 1998)[2]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With regards to breaking the fast (Iftar); Salman b. \u2018Amir reported Allah\u2019s messenger as saying, \u201cWhen one of you breaks his fast he should do so with dates for they provide blessing; but if he cannot get any he should break his fast with water for it is purifying.\u201d Ahmad, Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud, Ibn Majah, and Darimi transmitted it, but only Tirmidhi included \u201cfor they provide blessing.\u201d (Mishkat al Masabih, 1990)[3]<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If different food is provided for Sahur and Iftar by different individuals then each person will receive rewards for those who begin and break their fast using the food provided. However, it would be preferable to provide dates and water. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A good solution would be for each individual to provide some dates and water with other foods so each person will be providing the best thing to start and end the fast.<\/span><\/p>\n
