Mishkat al-Masabih #1893
Fasting
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَنْ سَهْلٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا يَزَالُ النَّاسُ بِخَيْرٍ مَا عَجَّلُوا الْفِطْرَ»
Sahl reported God’s messenger as saying, “The people will continue to prosper as long as they hasten the breaking of the fast.”*
*This refers to each day during Ramadan, and recommends that the fast should be broken as early as that may lawfully be done.
(Bukhari and Muslim.)
