[the ending of something meaningful]
September 25, 2008 by dragon-ex89
ppl often forget the fact that we are leaving behind sumthing really valuable and meaningful that only comes along once a year..
RAMADHAN..
for something that only last for only a few days..
RAYA..
why??
Even though Ramadhan is still not over yet, the final 10 days are left for us to find the malam lailatul qadr, but most ppl are already fussing about raya.Before this i always felt sad on the fact that every time raya, abah always reluctant to bring us beraya to other ppl houses..(sumthing i luvĀ to do) but now when i think back, what is it that is so special about raya that every body is celebrating it extravagantly?? Yes, i know that we are celebrating our victory because we have already fast for a month..but from wut i see some ppl are celebrating it much more berlebih2 than other ppl should..
org yang berpuase punuh should be more happier than those who dont, but are they??..
org yang menghidupkan ramadhan should be the one who celebrates RAYA, as they know the true meaning of victory..but are they??..
the world today, Malaysians particularly perceive raya more like a traditional celebration than a religion matter..
if you ask ppl..or u can just see for yourself from your observation..
RAYA=
sales in shopping complexes..
new fashion for baju kurung..
new receipe kuih raya..
blockbuster movies..
lagu raya..
open houses(a.k.a. pesta makan..)thus, they will be pembaziran..
konsert raya..(this one i seriously dont understand..penat je mintak ampun mase ramadhan..x sampai sebulan pon..)
We have to go back to the real meaning of raya..look back on how Rasulullah and the sahabat celebrated Raya..how different and how meaningful their celebration is..Aidilfitri should be the muslims symbol of victory after one month continuously fasting and beribadat meghidupkan one month in Ramadhan, so should we be celebrating like we celebrate today..??
a question to ponder upon..
