*🌴 Some Worldly Benefits of Breaking the Fast (Iftar) with Dates*

* During fasting, sugar levels drop and bodily energy decreases. Eating dates at the time of Iftar normalizes the sugar level and restores the body's energy. This is because dates are a fruit rich in nutrition and fast-acting sugar, which is very essential for a fasting person.

* The amount of cholesterol (fat) in dates is next to none. Therefore, at the time of Iftar, such food is necessary which contains the minimum amount of fat.

* While a fasting person benefits from the physical advantages by following the Sunnah of eating dates for Iftar, they also become deserving of reward and blessings (Ajar-o-Thawab).
