Dates have been part of Islamic tradition for centuries. They are not only a healthy choice for breaking the fast, providing essential nutrients that help keep your body energised during fasting, but are also a Sunnah food. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) encouraged Muslims to break their fast with dates and water, a practice that continues to this day.
“When one of you is fasting, he should break his fast with dates; but if he cannot get any, then he should break his fast with water, for water is purifying.”
(Sunan Abu Dawood, Hadith 2349)
This hadith underlines the significance of dates in Ramadan. By breaking your fast with dates, you’re not only nourishing your body but also reviving a beloved Sunnah of the Prophet (PBUH).
At Riwaya, we understand the importance of having the finest dates for Ramadan. That’s why we’ve curated a collection of high-quality dates to suit every need. Here’s a closer look at our range:
Ajwa dates are often referred to as “the dates of Paradise.” These soft and slightly dry dates are grown in the blessed city of Madina and hold immense spiritual significance. It is reported that the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said:
“Whoever has seven Ajwa dates every morning, neither magic nor poison will harm him that day.”
(Sahih al-Bukhari, Hadith 5445)
Ajwa dates are not only spiritually enriching but also packed with health benefits. They’re an excellent source of fibre and antioxidants, making them a perfect choice for your Ramadan meals.
Medjool dates, known as the ‘king of dates’, are sourced from Palestine. They are larger, sweeter, and chewier than other varieties. They are packed with essential nutrients such as fibre, potassium, and magnesium, and they are a source of vitamin B6, which not only benefits general health but also aids in weight loss goals.

People who buy dates in bulk in preparation for Ramadan may find it difficult to maintain their freshness and quality throughout the whole month. Therefore, they need to store the dates properly to ensure their quality and nutrient content. Here are some tips on how to do that:
Dates are sensitive to heat. Don't let them get too hot, and protect them from direct sunlight. You can put it in a pantry or cupboard. In case you are living in a warm climate region, you may want to consider refrigerating them.
Make sure your dates are stored in airtight containers like mason jars, resealable plastic bags, acrylic containers or any other box that prevents air contact with the dates. By preventing air contact it stops the absorption of moisture, which can not only changes dates colours and taste but also encourage the growth of bacteria, making them unsuitable for eating. It is important to ensure that they are sealed in a container to preserve their flavour and texture.
Fresh dates can be frozen for even longer storage—up to a year. When ready to use, they can be thawed at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
Dates are an integral part of Ramadan, embodying both spiritual and physical nourishment. By breaking your fast with dates, you’re following the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) while reaping their numerous health benefits.
