Question

Is this narration authentic?

Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:

“How good is the believer’s meal of dates at the time of sehri”

 

Answer

Imam Abu Dawud (rahimahullah) has recorded this Hadith on the authority of Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (radiyallahu ‘anhu). Imam Ibn Hibban (rahimahullah) has declared the Hadith authentic (sahih).
