duhh obviously after ..cos if you were to do it before eating sehri then you wudnt be able to eat after once you intend to keep fast …i,e, read the above dua ..

your welcome

Well i know the Dua for sehri.
But i always read it after i am done eating sehri right before fajar time, but someone told me today that u r suppose to read it before you eat as that your niyaat taht u r eating for sehri and plan to fast… so i am confused now!

Actually thats an interesting question. When exactly should we recite the dua for sehri. Immediately after sehri? Or can we do it at any time during the day before aftari?

Re: Sehri Dua

well.. we do it immediately after sehri or when fajr time starts.

The intention is very important for the fast, it’s actually fardh. Without the niyyah the fast will not be accepted. You don’t have to verbally say that you intend to fast, but you should make intention in your heart to fast the previous night which can be as late as right before Fajr time.

Sunan Al Nasai, Book of Fasting, Hadith 2331.

Also, check out this video from around the 9 min. mark to the 13 min. mark and then from around 15 min. mark to the 19 min. mark, to hear about the niyyah or intention of fasting.

Aap apne sar ko kyon mare hi ho? lolzz

The dua for sehri or the niyyah for the fast should be read right after you take the sehri or it will be late and the Fajr time would start.This is what should be recited after the sehri:

“Nawai tuan assuma gadammin shari, ramadanal mubaraki, fardullaka ya allahu,fatakabbal minni innaka antas samiul aleem”.
