Any attitude or act which is forbidden or disliked in the Holy month of Ramadan will never be halal after Ramadan. The God in Ramadan is the same God in all the other months.
The litmus paper test for determining whether one's fast is accepted or not is not determined by the acts performed in Ramadan. It is determined by the acts that follows Ramadan. To strive and continue to maintain one's good acts after Ramadan can be a sign of acceptance. But to immediately and eagerly return to one's disliked acts speaks a lot about one's sincerity during the month of Ramadan. It is even perplexing to see people planning some forbidden and disliked acts they want to engage in after Ramadan when we are still in the month of Ramadan...Hmmm, Allah Guide
So if you were planning to return back to that haram boy/girlfriend relationship, remove the Hijaab, pull back the 'Otto Pfista', stop praying completely or on time as before, dressing almost naked, continue with the back-biting and slandering, etc after Ramadan is gone, then you have to think twice about the acceptance of your 29/30 days restraint.
So the destiny of your fast lies directly in your hands. Whether it becomes written in your book of good deeds or it becomes a hunger exercise is your choice. Am not saying that, one will have be 100% in maintaining one's acts of Ramadan. But to a large extent, one must strive to.
So the choice once again lies in your hands. Are going for an ACCEPTED FASTING or a HUNGER EXERCISE???
May Allah guide us to choose wisely,
