In Ramadan, when we want to build our spirituality, we’ve got to wage Jihad against our bad habits.

  • Try to stick to the Prophetic rule on eating: fill our stomachs with one-third food, one-third water and one-third breathing space, even in Ramadan.
  • Open your hearts and dig a little deeper in our wallets this year.Whatever you can give, it’s the intention that counts.
  • Memorizing the Quran often seems like a daunting task. But the key is doing it in small bites.Try to memorize new Surahs. Start off with a short, easy one. Once you’ve started, you’ll build momentum and may even want to memorize a longer one.
  • Try your best to head out to the mosque for Tarawih prayers. The community spirit is part of Ramadan’s blessings. Don’t miss it this year.
  • It’s hard not to shut our mouths off when someone upset’s us. Stop Swearing And Backbiting.
  • Strengthening ties with family members and keeping in touch with friends is part of our way of life and an act Allah is very pleased with.
  • After Iftar, instead of plopping yourself in front of the screen, go to Tarawih. The same goes for the television. The point is to try to give our full attention to spiritual elevation this month.
  • Even if you feel you’ve got absolutely no time, you can read a page of the Quran you open. The point is simply to connect with God through His evelation in the month of the Quran.
  • Go of the anger and pain this Ramadan and forgive those who have hurt you. Forgiving someone is great for the soul.
  • Keep away from debates and arguments.
  • Be nice to those around you, even if you don’t know you. Just smile to people.
  • Help someone across the road, carry the groceries for your neighbor.
  • Think outside of the box, help a couple to get married, help someone out of debt, buy translated Qurans for new converts.
  • Tie your yearly Zakat with Ramadan. Any money or gold that has been in your possession for a year has zakat which should be paid. It might be easier to tie your zakat with Ramadan because it is a memorable date.

Ask yourself those questions that need to be asked. Do an evaluation of where you are and where you are going. Let this evaluation lead you to feel happiness for the good you have done and remorse for the bad you have done.

Remember that Allah is watching during Ramadan and After not Only during Ramadan.
