Hari Raya Celebration(Essay For SPM)

    Every year, a Muslims will be celebrated the most glorious day which is called " Hari Raya Puasa" after one month of fasting and they have been faced the tough situation during the fasting season. For me and my family consider it as a special day to catch up with the relatives, friends, neighbors and children. In Malaysia, we can see the Muslims prepared early in the morning for becoming the special day. They garnish their house, buying new clothes and making various type of food and cookies. We can see that the shopping complex especially Times Square and Midvalley will be crowded by the Muslims people choosing their new clothes for the Hari Raya Puasa. As for me, Hari Raya Puasa should be celebrated with full of enjoyment but now it has changed because many Malaysians are disregarded of their roots now. But doesn't mean they are forgetting or not celebrating it maybe their priority is not to celebrating too much because they have to continue their studies. It only feels when I was a little boy went home to home to try types of food and asking for duit Raya.

    One night before the Hari Raya, me and family were busy helping each other to make "pelita". It is a heritage for Malay people to fire up the beauty of the entire house. It is made up from bamboo stick and filled with oil. But nowadays, people had invented a new kind of pelita which is made from plastic that is safe to used. I can see my mother and grandmother will busy making some cookies and mouth watering food. There were ketupat, lemang, pulut kuning, lontong and some other delicious food. These foods will never miss as they are the main food for Hari Raya Puasa. 

    Hence, I can see people get bonded with many Malaysians from variety of races and automatically strengthen the relationship between each other's respective. It also helps someone's weight to gain more weight drastically due to the intake of lots of variety food. Moreover, there must be an event that we called an open house that will be held by the Muslims. The event helps to strengthen the relationship between family members after not seeing each other for a long period of time. I hope kind of this event should be practically in every Muslims members. 

   Lastly, when the night comes, we are letting off firecrackers and fireworks. The atmosphere filled with the sound of exploding fireworks and chaos as the kids were playing it around the house.We all slept late that night, chatting with each other. In conclusion, I would like to have an interesting event like this because all the mistakes that you have done in life are been forgiven by begging the bless of parents from head to toe.
