I am a Muslim (converted to Islam on 03.12.1999). Muslim celebrated Hari Raya Aidilfitri at every 1 Syawal tahun Hijrah...
Lights are usually lighted every where..shopping mall, mosque, surau, houses, villages (i like the beautiful sceneric view of Papar, Sabah) etc...
Other than that, 'ketupat' or woven palm leaves (i'll get a photo on this..promise you), is a must either as a food or as a decoration together with Hari Raya Aidilfitri cards..
Ketupat is made from plain rice which is filled inside the palm leaves, boiled till cooked, and is served best with rendang, satay, or curry.
Ketupat also can be replaced with lemang (i'll get a photo on this one too..also a promise is made). Lemang is made from glutinous milk and cook with coconut milk. The difference with ketupat is that lemang is nice to be eaten alone without rendang, satay or curry..it taste so nice...oohh almost forgotten..lemang is cooked by burning it inside a bamboo stick..
You should taste one...marrrrveeeeloussss...ummmmmppphhhh thumbs up!!
Ooo..and another thing of course...the new baju raya (something like below)...the 'new look' with 'new clothing' will make you more confident at waking up earlier in the morning of hari raya...it doesn't have to be expensive though..but at least it is new to celebrate hari raya..
Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri 2010 to all my friends and families...Maaf Zahir dan Batin ...
