Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 2, Hadith 763

Narrated Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-‘As: The Prophet (ﷺ) used to say on the day of the breaking of the fast seven takbirs in the first rak’ah and then recite the Qur’an, and utter the takbir (Allah is most great). Then he would stand, and utter the takbir four times. Thereafter he would recite the Qur’an and bow. Abu Dawud said: This has been narrated by Waki’ and Ibn al-Mubarak. Their version goes: “Seven (in the first rak’ah) and five (in the second).”

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو تَوْبَةَ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ، – يَعْنِي ابْنَ حَيَّانَ – عَنْ أَبِي يَعْلَى الطَّائِفِيِّ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ يُكَبِّرُ فِي الْفِطْرِ فِي الأُولَى سَبْعًا ثُمَّ يَقْرَأُ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ فَيُكَبِّرُ أَرْبَعًا ثُمَّ يَقْرَأُ ثُمَّ يَرْكَعُ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ رَوَاهُ وَكِيعٌ وَابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ قَالاَ سَبْعًا وَخَمْسًا ‏.‏

Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 2, Hadith 763

 
Sunan Abi Dawud is one of the six major hadith collections in Sunni Islam, compiled by the Islamic scholar Abu Dawud al-Sijistani (817–889 CE). It is a comprehensive collection of sayings, actions, and approvals of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) that covers various aspects of Islamic jurisprudence, ethics, and social conduct. The collection contains over 4,800 hadiths, arranged into books that focus on topics such as prayer, purification, fasting, zakat (charity), marriage, and justice. While it is considered highly authoritative, Sunan Abi Dawud includes a critical methodology in selecting hadiths, prioritizing those that are authentic and reliable.
