Jami at-Tirmidhi 658 (Book 7, Hadith 42) #26223
The Blessings of Dates and Charity

SUMMARY: Breaking the fast with dates is blessed, and charity given to the needy or relatives is counted as two.

Hafsah bint Sirin narrated from Ar-Rabab, from her uncle Salman bin Amir that he related that : the Prophet said: "When one of you breaks his fast, then let him do so with dried dates, for they are blessed. Whoever does not find dates, then water, for it is purifying". And he said: "Charity given to the needy is (counted as) charity, and if it is given to relatives it is (counted as) two: charity and nurturing (the ties of kinship)".
