Eating Sehri way before Fajr is trnding. Some people eat Sehri a few hours after Taraweeh or Isha Salah, this is wrong. It should be eaten closer to the time of Fajr.

People don't make Niyyat (intentions) to fast for Ramadan. This is something in the heart and does not need to be verbal. You should do that.

Many people don't think you pray Taraweeh on the first night of Ramazan i.e. the day moon of Ramazan sighted. They believe you pray it after the first day you actually fast. They forget that the Islamic calendar runs on the moon, maghrib is the start of the new day.

Many people believe if you eat or drink on accident this breaks your fast. This is false; if you do this on accident then you continue fasting.

Many sisters believe they cannot use Hennah while fasting. This is incorrect too. They are allowed to use it during Ramazan while fasting.

Many many people believe you cannot have intercourse with your spouse during the whole month of Ramazan. This is false conception. You cannot do this only during the times when you are fasting. Between Maghrib and Fajr it is allowed to do after fast.

Some people pray Dhur and Asr prayers together during Ramazan. (Mainly in Arab countries) This is incorrect and should be avoided.

Some people believe you cannot eat until the Muazin is done calling the Maghrib Azaan. This is incorrect; as soon as he starts azan fasting person can break their fast.

Many people don't take advantage of making dua before they break their fast. This is one of the three times when Allah accepts a person dua. Give your time in making dua before Iftar.

Many people make the mistake of spending the later part of Ramadan preparing for Eid, neglecting Ramazan. This is incorrect and these people lose the concept of what Ramazan is about. However, these days of Ramazan are most important days of Whole month of Ramazan. Think before Losing it.

People often waste their time during Ramazan in useless activities. They go to sleep during the day and get nothing done. We should be taking advantage of this blessed month by doing extra Ibadat and making Duas.

Some people don't go on trips or travel during Ramazan. They think they have to break their fast when traveling. This is actually optional, if you want to break your fast while traveling you can (with making it up later), and if you don't you can continue fasting.

Some people believe they cannot cut their hair or nails during Ramazan. This is also false.

Some people say you cannot use scented oils or perfumes during Ramadan. This too is false.

Some people believe bleeding breaks the fast at the moment. This is not true.
