Etiquette at time of saheri and iftar

'One of the most important etiquette and instruction is the recital of Surah al-Qadr (Power) before taking saheri and iftar as well as recital of illustrious and illuminated supplication:'


Allahuma rabb al-nur al-'adheem

Allah is the possessor of great illumination


Supplication at time of breaking the fast:

Allaahumma laka sumtu wa 'alaa riz-qika aftartu wa 'alayka tawakkaltu

O Allah: For the sake of You have I fasted;
And with Your sustenance have I broken my fast;
And in You have I trusted (relied).


Bismillah allaahumma laka sumnaa wa 'alaa riz-qika aftarnaa fa-taqabbal minnaa innaka antas samee-ul 'aleem
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 are Hearer, Knower
 
Bismillahir rah'maanir rah'eem yaa waasi-al maghfira igfir lee
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful, O He whose indulgence is boundless, forgive me
