Dua for Iftar
When breaking the fast – Iftar
اللَّهُمَّ اِنِّى لَكَ صُمْتُ وَبِكَ امنْتُ وَعَلَى رِزْقِكَ اَفْطَرْتُ
O Allah! I fasted for You and I believe in You and I break my fast with Your sustenance.
Transliteration:
Allahumma Inni laka sumtu wa bika amantu wa ‘ala rizqika aftartu
Iftar commences at Maghrib, marked by the initial words of the beautiful adhan.
In our weakened state from fasting, the urge to hastily break our fast is strong. Yet, this vulnerable moment is precious—ideal for reflecting on Allah and making heartfelt dua. Just as the dua at suhoor declares our intent to fast, the dua at iftar becomes an expression of gratitude to Allah.

Wa Alaykum Salam
Not exactly clear what you mean Slave of Allah but the reference to Sunan Abu Dawud for this dua is clearly given below the translation.
Wasalam
6:54 pm
Salam to all Muslim worldwide.
It is a rear blessing from Allah(SWT) to experience another fast in this holy month of Ramadan.
May Allah(SWT) accept our fast as sincere act of ibadah.(Amin)
Brother ‘Slave of Allah’ and Ahmed, I think this is not the period to debate over duas been authentic or not.
A lot of Muslims are not even aware of these duas. Yet they fast earnestly to Allah(SWT).
The bottom line is for us to observe our fast with strict adherence to sharia.
5:48 am
Allahu Akbar!
3:39 am
Assalamu Alaikum Brothers and sisters. Alhamdulilah for God has takin us through the end of Ramadan may he accept all our Ibadat and forgive our mistakes. Amin

Be cautious: dear brothers and sisters in Islam, there exists two Dua’s in the Internet. The one is very very popular, but weak. And the other is not popular, but strong. So please brothers and sisters, use the strong one! Admin.
Popular, but weak Hadith:
Allah Humma inni Laka Soom-Tu wah Bikka aa-Mantu [wa-Ilayka Tawak’ Kalto], Wah Ala Rizke-Ka Af-Tar-tu Fahtaqab al-Minnee [Oh Allah I
have fasted for You, believed in You, relied on You, and with your sustenance i break it. Therefore forgive me my past and future sins.]
Notice: [“wa ‘alayka tawakkaltu” is quoted in some books of knowledge – but not all, hence it is in brackets]
Why is this Hadith weak? This Hadith (“Allahumma inni laka sumtu wa bika aamantu [wa ‘alayka tawakkaltu] wa ‘ala rizq-ika aftarthu”)
which is found in the Sunan Of Abu Dawud (2358) on the authority of Mu’aath ibn Zuhra. And the Hadith is Mursal which means that there
is a missing link between Mu’aath ibn Zuhra and the Prophet (Sallalahu alaihi wasallam) as he did not meet
the Prophet (sallalaahu alaihi wasallam) i.e. so the report is weak.
Strong Hadith, but not very popular like the above one:
dhahabadh-dhama’u wab-tallatil ‘uruuqi, wa thabatal arju inshaAllah
“The thirst is gone, the veins are moistened and the reward is confirmed, if Allah [Ta’ala] Wills” [Abu Dawud 2:306]
