Sunan Ibn Majah
كتاب الصيام
Fasting
" إِذَا أَفْطَرَ أَحَدُكُمْ، فَلْيُفْطِرْ عَلَى تَمْرَةٍ. فَإِنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ، فَلْيُفْطِرْ عَلَى الْمَاءِ. فَإِنَّهُ طَهُورٌ "
"When any one of you breaks his fast, let him break it with dates. If he cannot find dates, then let him break it with water, for it is a means of purification."
