Hadith.1950 - Al-'Ala narrated from Muhammad ibn Muslim, from Abu Ja'far (as), who said: "I heard him say: 'A pregnant woman in her late term and a nursing woman with little milk are not at fault if they break their fast during the Month of Ramadan because they are unable to fast. They must each give a mudd (a specific measure) of food as charity for every day they break their fast, and they must make up each day they missed after Month of Ramadan.'"

Hadith.1953 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: "Sadir entered upon my father (as) during the Month of Ramadan. My father said to him: 'O Sadir, do you know what nights these are?' Sadir replied: 'Yes, may I be your ransom; these are the nights of the Month of Ramadan. Why do you ask?' My father (as) said to him: 'Can you free ten slaves from the descendants of Isma'il every night of these nights?' Sadir replied: 'May I be your ransom, my wealth cannot reach that amount.' My father (as) continued to reduce the number until he said: 'Can you free one slave every night?' Sadir replied: 'I cannot do that either.' My father (as) then asked: 'Can you provide iftar for one Muslim every night?' Sadir replied: 'Yes, I can, and even for ten Muslims.' My father (as) said: 'That is what I intended, O Sadir. Providing iftar to your Muslim brother is equal to freeing one slave from the descendants of Isma'il (as).'"

When it was evening, he would lean over the pots to smell the aroma of the broth while still fasting. Then Imam (as) would say: "Bring the dishes and serve portions to the family of so-and-so, and to the family of so-and-so." Afterward, bread and dates would be brought to Imam (as), and that would be his dinner.
