Reciting the Takbir is one of the greatest Sunnah (the traditions and practices of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) based on the saying of Allah (ﷻ):

وَلِتُكْمِلُوا الْعِدَّةَ وَلِتُكَبِّرُوا اللَّهَ عَلَىٰ مَا هَدَاكُمْ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ

He wants you to complete the prescribed period and to glorify Him for having guided you, so that you may be thankful.

[Quran 2:185]

🌸What Not to Do During Ramadan? 10 Things to Avoid During Ramadan

There are certain things that we must avoid during Ramadan. Here, we have enlisted 10 such deeds that can ruin your Ramadan, which you must avoid.

1. Breaking Fasts Without Valid Reasons

Breaking obligatory fasts in Ramadan without a valid Shar’i reason is a major sin. The books of hadith contain serious warnings and mentions of punishments regarding this matter.
repent if you deliberately broke or skipped any fast during previous Ramadans and make up for them immediately. Promise Allah that you will not skip any more Sawm in the upcoming Ramadan. Allah is ever Forgiving and Merciful.

2. Skipping Obligatory Salah

Skipping obligatory Salah during and outside of Ramadan is a major sin. It is particularly absurd to see some people fast for 30 days of Ramadan but skip the obligatory prayers.
On top of that, they specifically stay up all night on the 27th of Ramadan to pray Qiyam-ul-Layl and then miss Fajr. This is an absolute mockery of the Deen of Allah.
Praying 5 times a day is one of the pillars of Islam and neglecting it regularly can lead to disbelief. Not performing Salah is one of the reasons why people will end up in Hellfire. Allah Ta’ala mentioned in the Quran:
مَا سَلَكَكُمْ فِى سَقَرَ ٤٢ قَالُوا۟ لَمْ نَكُ مِنَ ٱلْمُصَلِّينَ ٤٣
Meaning: ‘(It will be asked) What has landed you in Hell? They will reply, “We were not of those who prayed” ’ [Surah Al-Muddatthir: 42-43]
So, start praying from right now.

3. Indecent Activities, Backbiting, Quarrels and Fights

Involving in inappropriate behaviours, arguing, or fighting can heavily reduce the rewards or even invalidate your fasts during Ramadan. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:
مَنْ لَمْ يَدَعْ قَوْلَ الزُّورِ وَالْعَمَلَ بِهِ فَلَيْسَ لِلَّهِ حَاجَةٌ فِي أَنْ يَدَعَ طَعَامَهُ وَشَرَابَهُ
Meaning: “Whoever does not give up forged speech and evil actions, Allah has no need of his giving up his food and drink (i.e. Allah will not accept his fasting.)” [Sahih Al Bukhari: 1903]
Rasulullah ﷺ also said:
الصِّيَامُ جُنَّةٌ، فَلاَ يَرْفُثْ وَلاَ يَجْهَلْ، وَإِنِ امْرُؤٌ قَاتَلَهُ أَوْ شَاتَمَهُ فَلْيَقُلْ إِنِّي صَائِمٌ‏ مَرَّتَيْنِ
Meaning: “Fasting is a shield (or a screen or a shelter). So, the person observing fasting should avoid sexual relations with his wife and should not behave foolishly and impudently, and if somebody fights with him or abuses him, he should tell him twice, ‘I am fasting.” [Sahih Al Bukhari: 1894]
Thus, we must give up these sins during Ramadan. Otherwise, our Siyam will not be accepted by Allah.

4. Wasting Time in Useless or Haram Activities

Ramadan arrives for a brief period. It is a great chance to gain forgiveness from Allah. However, if we spend time on unnecessary and foolish things, we will surely be at a great loss.
Unfortunately, nowadays, we spend more and more time on our phones and other devices instead of reciting the Quran and making Dhikr of Allah. People not only watch useless content on them but also watch movies, listen to songs and more while fasting! Thus, it is essential to disconnect ourselves from these time-wasting gadgets and focus on worshipping and remembering Allah.

5. Engaging in Sexual Activities During the Daytime

Having sexual intercourse during the daytime in Ramadan is Haram. It invalidates your fast and requires you to make up for it through Kaffarah (expiation) in the 3 following ways.

Freeing a slave
Fasting for consecutive 2 months
Feeding 60 poor people

So, don’t even think about it. If you have done it in the past, repent to Allah and offer the Kaffarah in either of the above-mentioned ways. Also, masturbation with ejaculation invalidates one’s fast and Kaffara becomes mandatory. So, you need to stay away from it also.

6. Being Lazy in Performing Ibadah

If Ramadan comes and goes and we do nothing, then Rasulullah ﷺ has spoken harsh words for us. He ﷺ said:

“Verily, Jibril (Gabriel) came to me and he said: ‘Whoever reaches the month of Ramadan and he is not forgiven, then he will enter Hellfire and Allah will cast him far away. So, say “Amin”.’ I said ‘Amin’.” [Sahih Ibn Hibban: 907]
Can you understand the significance of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying “Amin” to something?! Thus, we must avoid laziness during Ramadan and worship Allah to the best of our abilities. Otherwise, we would surely be doomed.

7. Too Much Food During Iftar

Expensive foods and countless dishes for Iftar during Ramadan have become a global trend. Food vloggers are showcasing these appealing dishes in their videos. Chefs are sharing hundreds of recipes on their platforms.
We find that our women at home are so busy making these dishes that they can’t even have Iftar on time. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:
لَا تَزَالُ أُمَّتِي بِخَيْرٍ مَا عَجَّلُوا الْإِفْطَارَ وَأَخَّرُوا السُّحُورَ
Meaning: “My nation will continue in goodness so long as they hasten to break their fast and prolong the Suhur (pre-fasting meal).” [Musnad Ahmad: 21312]
Also, during Iftar, many people eat so much food that it becomes difficult for them to attend Taraweeh later on. Some shorten their prayer because of the discomfort from excessive eating while others fall asleep and don’t pray at all.
We are not saying that you should not have your favourite dishes on Iftar. We only recommend that you keep it simple and healthy, so that no one misses out on the rewards of Ramadan.

8. Free Mixing Iftar Parties and Sehri Nights

This inappropriate culture has become a trend in recent years throughout the Muslim world. Non-Mahram men and women gather together for so-called “Iftar” parties and “Sehri” nights and spend hours gossiping, laughing, singing and doing all other things.
We must avoid these events. We should give Da’wah to the people against them.

9. Spending Too Much Time in Shopping Malls

Unfortunately, as Ramadan progresses towards the end, there are more people in the shopping malls and fewer in the Masjids. This has become quite a common sight globally in the Muslim world.
The last 10 days of Ramadan are special. Our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ would sit in I’tikaf in the Masjid during these days in search of Laylatul Qadr. Instead of spending these days in I’tikaf or attending Taraweeh, people waste hours in these shopping malls.
We are merely saying that buy what you need and end your Eid shopping as quickly as possible. Focus more on gathering the rewards of Ramadan rather than buying wasteful stuff also while wasting precious time during Ramadan.

10. Indecent Activities After Iftar

Many people engage in Haram activities right after finishing Iftar. Instead of praying the Maghrib prayer after Iftar, we find people on the streets smoking and gossiping. These people loosely control themselves somewhat while fasting. As soon as they have Iftar, they act as if they have been freed from some burden.
This goes completely against the teachings of Ramadan. Ramadan arrives to purify our lives for the better and to teach us self-discipline and righteousness. It is not about restricting ourselves for a certain period and letting loose afterwards.
Ramadan is a life-altering course from Allah the Almighty. Thus, we must avoid these forbidden activities during our fastings and after Iftar.
