All in the family, including a son in law with his son, indeed my grandson

The Eids or The two Hari Raya are annual occasions only for the Muslims to thank Allah for HIS GRATEFUL and MERCY. It is celebrated twice as follows:

1. Eidil Fitri or Hari Raya Eidul Fitri is celebrated on every 1st of Syawal, exclusively for those have completed fasting in the whole month of Ramadhan of the Muslim calender.

2. Eidil Adha or Hari Raya Haji or Hari Raya Qurban is celebrated on every 10th of Zulhijjah and followed by the Tashriq days on the 11, 12 and 13th consecutively. The affords are encouraged to sacrifice a matured goat or 1/7 of the cattle or of it kind.

It is ridiculous and irrelevant to combine either one of the Eids with the other celebrations such as KongsiRaya, DeepaRaya and so on and so on.

Anyhow, the non muslims are encouraged to join the Muslims to enhance and strengthening friendship, toleration, National Unity and Integration.

"THE EIDS OR HARI RAYA IS NOT A FESTIVAL. IT IS A CELEBRATION TO THANK ALLAH FOR HIS GRATEFUL AND MERCY"

"SAMBUTLAH HARI RAYA IKUT HADIS BUKAN IKUT ARTIS"
