What dua is recommended at the moment of Maghrib?
The Prophet Muhammad ๏ทบ taught the dua of breaking fast (which applies in Ramadan): "Dhahaba al-zama'u wabtallat al-'uruq wa thabata al-ajru in sha' Allah" โ€” "Thirst has gone, the veins are moistened, and the reward is established, God willing" (Abu Dawud).
