  1. Avoid/reduce watching TV; instead spend more time reading the Quran and other Islamic literature. 
  2. Avoid looking at unlawful pictures, whether magazines, department store catalogs or otherwise. 
  3. Avoid wasting free time, instead spend it in the Masjid, Islamic organizations and make that a daily habit. 
  4. If you smoke, try to reduce daily usage; otherwise Ramadan will be very difficult for you to observe.  
  5. If you have friends who do not practice the teaching of Islam, try to avoid socializing with them. 
  6. If you travel a lot on business, try to do more local business, so you can be more closer to your family and community. 
  7. If you are used to staying up till midnight, try to go to bed earlier, so that you will be able to wake up early for Salat al-Fajr and Tahajjud prayers as well.

  2. Spend some time listening to recitations from the Quran.
  3. Train yourself to go to bed early so that you can wake up far Salat al-Fajr.
  4. Keep yourself in a state of Wudu (Ablution) most of the time.
  5. Evaluate yourself daily before going bed.
  6. Thank Allah (SWT) for your good deeds, and repent to Him for your mistakes and sins.
  7. Start giving Sadaqah daily, no matter how little. Make it a habit like eating and drinking.
  8. Find time to pray extra superagatory prayers, such as Tahajjud prayers.
  9. Spend more time reading Quran, and if you have additional time Hadith and Fiqh.
  10. Find time to help others with your wisdom, knowledge and other talents.
  11. Try to write articles on Islam for Muslims as well as for non-Muslims.
  12. Associate with Muslim Scholars/Ulama and other pious people so that you may learn from them.
  13. Train yourself to do good, render free service to others to seek the pleasure of Allah (SWT).
