I am forwarding a reminder sent to me by an Alim-e-deen. Please see if it helps you live the spirit of Ramadan.

                        
12 Things to Avoid during Ramadan

1. Dont sleep during the day and pray all night. By doing this you are converting the day into night and the night into day, which is not the purpose of fasting.

2. Dont waste time playing games during the day. Rather, please Allah by increasing your worship of Him..

3. Avoid having Iftar parties. Ramadan wasnt meant to be a food extravaganza. Instead send food to the poor and needy for their Iftar.

4. Dont ask your wife to spend Ramadan in the Kitchen. Eat something light and quick – she isn't a Biryani woman.

5. Spend the last 10 days worshipping Allah rather than trying to prepare for Eid! A day that is better than a thousand months is in these last 10 days. You can’t afford to miss this.

6. Dont stay awake the full night. Your body has a right over you, and when it wants rest, then rest.

7. Avoid excessive socialising after Taraweeh

8. Avoid shopping a lot in Ramadan.

9. Don't eat the full night.

10. Don't loiter around at night rather than worshipping Allah .

11. Eid doesnt require loads of preparation. Don't fall into this trap! Keep it simple, and it will be blessed

 

12. No gheebat(backbiting) at all
