ذَهَبَ الظَّمَأُ وَابْتَلَّتِ الْعُرُوقُ وَثَبَتَ الأَجْرُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ
(AbuDawud:2357)
তৃষ্ণা মিটে গেছে, শিরাগুলো সিক্ত হয়েছে এবং আল্লাহ চাইলে পুরস্কার নিশ্চিত।
اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ صُمْتُ وَعَلَى رِزْقِكَ أَفْطَرْتُ
(AbuDawud:2358)
Bengali Translationহে আল্লাহ! তোমার জন্যই আমি রোজা রেখেছি এবং তোমার রিযিকের কারণেই আমি আমার রোজা ভঙ্গ করেছি।
