Celebration Day of Fasting~

Posted by lORiNCE LH SYAh On 12:44 PM
This is what I expect it to be - Hari Raya Puasa in Malay or Hari Raya Aidilfitri.
I don't know what raya meant to me. I never celebrate it with my family, but I know one fact that the takbir will recited at the 'Raya eve' that's when you know when will the Hari Raya be. It not necessarily be heard from masjid or surau but you can hear it through the radio or via TV.
Malaysia will be celebrated their 1st Syawal on wednesday, October 01 2008, and today (Thursday) is 1st Syawal for Brunei. As the tradition, all malay would be going back to their hometown or rather be balik kampung.

~Ketupat~

I've been to my friends house for raya, they serve me ketupat. Seriously I don't know how I should be eating it. No thanks to my inexperience of eating malay food. I supposed it's a common sense for eating such food. Hahaha. Then I give it a try, to be honest the ketupat taste like~ yuck!! It's almost tasteless. And to my pleasant surprise, it is to be eaten together with rendang, curry, tempe or anyting that is well-matched to the taste.

~Rendang~

~Chicken Curry~

So, I would love to have this opportunity to greet 'Salam Lebaran' to all my fellow muslim. I therefore seek forgiveness for all wronging (wrongdoing) spiritually as well as phisycally. Maaf zahir dan batin. My raya day was all happening with firecrackers, albeit restrictions on it by the authorities. So far it was all good, one blessed day. Alhamdullilah~

p/s I didn't snapped a photo, it will be weird and so awkward for me to snapped others food. LoL.
