Hari Raya Aidilfitri

The Muslim community in Malaysia and all over the
world celebrate Hari Raya Aidilfitri, or also known as
Hari Raya Puasa. Hari Raya Aidilfitri is regarded as
a merry celebration as it marks a person’s triumph
and success on discipline.

On the morning of Hari Raya, the men perform
prayers at the mosque while children ask for
forgiveness from their parents. The little ones will
also be given ‘duit raya’ or gifts of money in small
green packets. While the first three days of Hari
Raya are usually reserved for catching up with the
family, many families hold open houses throughout
the month where friends and neighbors of other
races are invited to share conversation, laughter
and a variety of cookies, candy and traditional
delicacies.

Ketupat is one of the must-haves at Hari Raya.
It is served together with beef rendang (beef cooked
with coconut milk and malay spices) together with
satay (skewered grilled meat). Other delicious
delicates are such as lemang (glutinous rice cooked
in bamboo tubes), serunding (dry coconut fried with
chilli) and curry chicken.
