It was reported about ‘Utbah al-Ghulaam, that when he was ready to break his fast [at sunset], he would say to some of his companions around him:
Go and get me [some] water or dried dates to break my fast with, so that you may attain a reward similar to that of mine.[1]
Translator’s note:
[1] The Prophet ﷺ said:
«Whoever gives iftaar to one who is fasting, will have a reward like his – without detracting from the reward of the fasting person in the slightest»
