Why do we celebrate hari raya puasa?
In two years ago, I worked at KFC in Singapore. I had around four or three co worker are Malay. They have a fasting day, they dont eat from 6am to 7pm... I think, they cannot drink water. I learned a lot of muslim culture, and cool about religion! my wife and I went to Mosque and learned about muslim! wow!
Hari Raya Puasa is a very important occasion that is celebrated by Muslims all over the world. It is also known as the festival that marks the end of one month of fasting (Ramadan). The words ‘Hari Raya’ mean 'day of celebration'. Overall, it is the 'Fasting Day of Celebration'.
On the morning of the festival, the Muslims would wear their new clothes and go to the mosque to pray. They offer their thanks to God and after that they would ask for forgiveness from their elders. Hari Raya is a time to reconcile and renew relationships with others. Many different celebrations are attended with family, friends, and neighbors and the tend to last all day and into the night.
