Taking the pre-dawn meal as late as possible [Sunnah of Fasting]

Taking the pre-dawn meal as late as possible [Sunnah of Fasting] Sâlim b. 'Ubayd reports, "I used to stay in the house of Abû Bakr. One night, he prayed for as long as Allâh willed him to. He then said [to me], 'Go and see if al-fajr has started,' so I went, returned and said, 'Whiteness has risen in the sky.' So he prayed for as long as Allâh willed, then said [again], 'Go and see if al-fajr has started.' I went out, returned and said, '[The light] is spreading out and becoming reddish,' to which he said, 'Now bring me my drink (i.e. my pre-dawn meal, al-suhûr).'" Al-Dâraqutnî, Al-Sunan 2:166. Al-Dâraqutnî grades its chain of transmission sahîh.   O Allaah! I ask You for guidance, piety, safety and well-being, and contentment and sufficiency."  (Allaahummaa innee as'alukal-hudaa wat-tuqaa wal-`afaafa wal-ghinaa).  [Related by Muslim, no 2721] Http://Understand-Islam.net
