Hari Raya


Hari Raya Aidilfitri or also known as Hari Raya Puasa, celebrated by Muslims after a month of compulsory fasting during Ramadan. Traditionally, Muslims begin the celebration proper with house to house visits to recite special prayer on the eve of Hari Raya. On the actual day, Muslims visit one another. The "Open House" unique to Malaysians, starts after the morning prayer and goes on throughout the day.

Hari Raya is also a time to seek and grant forgiveness. The young and old will clasp hands as they forgive each other for their past misdeeds. All of us enjoy the traditional favourites dished at Hari Raya.......Jom Open House.
