My 2 cents

I know we are all in hari raya mood, hari raya environment, hari raya everything. But can someone share with me what is hari raya is all about???

Is hari raya is about kuih raya? or baju raya? lagu raya? mercun? at least sekarang dah takde kad raya...

I'm tired answering questions such;

"Dah beli baju raya?"

"Buat kuih ape tahun ni?"

as well as keep listening to hari raya song everyday. Cliche.


Hari raya is the day we celebrating the victory against our nafs. Just imagine, after all the effort to control our desire during the holy month of Ramadhan (no eating, no drinking, no mengumpating, no here no there), we spent like hell for one day occasion? Is that what our religion teach us??? Na.... I don't think so.

During the hari raya, we are advised to wear CLEAN and BEAUTIFUL cloth. Fine if you want to have new cloth for hari raya, but to have it like 3, 4, 5 pasang... hehehe... just a nice U-turn to our old habit after it was nicely refined during Ramadhan.

It just my 2 cents. The spirit of hari raya is more than all the above. It is about love, forgiveness, sharing and togetherness...

Selamat Hari Raya...

And Selamat Menghayati the True Meaning of Hari Raya...

Maaf Zahir Batin

I am tired of answering these questions during Raya and already crafted some good answers for this Raya:

Makcik Bedah Ngok Ngek: Eh kau bila lagi?

my answer: eh makcik bila lagi?

Makcik Bedah: Bila lagi apa?

my answer: Bila lagi nak mampus!

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri Maaf zahir dan Williams...opsss Batheen...hehe
