Happy Eid!

Salam and Hi Guys!

    I know it's already second day of Eid but I'd like to wish all muslims all around the world a Happy Eid! :D

            For those who don't what Eid is all about, Eid is a celebration celebrated in the month of Syawal by muslims all over the world after fasting for a month in the month of Ramadan. Although the concept is the same all over the world, different countries has different ways of celebrating Eid. Let me tell you about the basics first. In Malaysia, most of us would return to our hometown. Usually in rural areas:

1. After the last iftar(breaking fast) men from all over the village will go from house to house to recite the takbir (recital of the takbir is done by all muslims in the world). The special thing about this is it shows how close the villagers are with each other.

2. Kids would cheer in happiness as they play and celebrate the night before raya. Firecrackers are a must (harmless ones of course) .

3. It's a time for NeW things..haha.  New clothes (for morning of 1st Syawal), shoes and others.

4. It is also a time to be forgiving and generous. On the morning of Syawal. Families will wake up early to get ready and start the "Forgiving session"(i don't know what to call it.hehe) before going to a nearby mosque or surau and pray. (Solat Sunat Aidilfitri). Families would also visit the grave to visit passed loved ones.

5. Another fun thing about Eid is that kids..(yes below 18 is kids--') get Duit RAYA!! or money for visiting their relatives, friends or neighbours. For kids, it's a race to see who gets the most money. HAHA. But for more mature beings(*cough* like me), we appreciate Eid because it's a time to visit relatives that are far from you when you're in the city, strengthening family ties. CORRECTION: After receiving a comment from Anonymus who apparently is my band senior(who are you? o.0) kids are those who are still studying or in some cases not working yet. ^_^

6. We also hold open houses and invite friends of all races to come.

                               I'd love to post the pics of raya so..you just wait. and you'll get to see the festivity of Eid in Malaysia.! 1 Malaysia!!
