Things You Shouldn’t Do with Your partner in Ramadan!

Ramadan, the holy month where people try hard to become the best version of themselves. Ramadan can be a bit tough on some people, and that can affect their attitude in certain cases.

Here are the things You Shouldn’t Do with Your partner in Ramadan!

There is no relationship like boyfriend and girlfriend in Islam. When you love someone, it’s either you marry the person you love or try to manage your feeling. That’s why if people are not married yet, they should fast to control their desire and lust.

Ramadan is the best time to ask God for forgiveness and to seek nearness to Him. In Islam, it is forbidden to have a girlfriend, hence why it is profusely encouraged for Muslims to marry the one whom they love very quickly. This is to prevent any sexual activity between two unmarried people as well as other things.

Don’t engage in a fight before Iftar!

Unless you want to hear a lot of ‘2allahome eni sayem‘ and spoil your own fast over a stupid fight, go ahead.

Don’t invite him over for Iftar and pretend you cooked

He knows your mother did it all, and he also knows that you only served the beverages. Always remember karma is a bitch, and when you meet his mum and talk about your cooking skills, everything will fall into place ya chef!

  Remember not to say these things to your partner.

Do not be stingy in showing your love for your partner daily, just as you offer him daily delicious meals.

Do not think that love entails that you offer big material sacrifices. Rather, you need to offer greater moral and spiritual sacrifices. So, be morally and spiritually generous with your partner and you will own him.

Thank your partner for his care, kindness and generosity. Do not treat him on the basis that he is obliged to take care of you, for this will diminish his care for you as time passes.
