arkrab wish HAPPY HARI RAYA PUASA TO ALL MUSLIMS FOR THE YEAR 2008 [on 1st. Oct 2008]Hari Raya Puasa or Hari Raya Aidilfitri, is one of the most significant celebrations for Muslims. It marks the culmination of Ramadan, a month-long fasting period and a time for
abstinence, reflection & worship.
So what is actually Ramadan?
Ramadan is the name of the one-month fasting period when Muslims fast for a period of almost 12 hours. They fast from dawn till sunset. It is a known fact that during the period of fasting, apart from eating and drinking Muslims are also forbidden from smoking and having sexual relations. Only the sick are excused from fasting during this month. Muslims are expected to avoid lying, breaking promise or cheating during the month of Ramadan. The primary purpose of fasting during Ramadan is to remind all Muslims of self-control and submitting to Allah, the holy one. Even young kids are taught to fast when they are young.
Why The Muslim Celebrate Hari Raya?
After fulfilling their one-month of fasting, the Muslims would be joyful to celebrate Hari Raya Puasa. On the morning of the festival, the Muslims with a faithful heart would go to the mosque to pray. They offer their thanks to God and after that they would ask for forgiveness from their elders. This is an important custom practice by the Muslims.
While asking for forgiveness from the almighty god ALLAH, Muslims would normally seek permission from Him to humbly celebrate the festival occasions:
SO TO ALL OF US MUSLIMS: LET’S CELEBRATE THE HARI RAYA GLORIOUSLY WITHIN THE LIMIT OF ALLAH’S WILLING. MAY ALLAH BLESS US WITH MORE OF HIS BARAKAH AND HIKMAH FOR THE MORE COMING YEARS OF LIFE AHEAD, INSYAALLAH?
