Festivals

Hi! I'm going to tell you all about my Religion's Festivals!My religion is Islam.We celebrate Hari Raya Puasa and Hari Raya Haji.

1. Hari Raya Puasa

We celebrate this festival after 1 month of fasting and asking lots of wishes!We Fast in the most Best month in the Islamic Calender,Ramadan (from 22nd Aug till 19th Sept 2009).In this month,our god,ALLAH multiplies 10 times more heaven points when we pray to him.This is the best month to swop lots lots and lots of heaven points and also to ask him forgiveness for the bad deeds.

This is Mekka.

2.Hari Raya Haji

We celebrate this festivals to sacriface goats and cows.Why we sacriface?It is because we believe that when we sacriface goats and cows ,they will guide us to heaven in a a very thin hair-like bridge.We exchange gifts with one another(such as money).We also can go to Mekka if we can afford the cost.

3.How did I celebrate this festivals?

Normally,we shower cleanly and put on new clothes ,ofcourse who would forget the mosque.I started fasting when I was 8 years old.The first day,I felt SUPER DUPER SLEEPY when my parents woke me up on 4 'o clock in the morning and must eat you know in the early morning!But,I got used to it very quickly!We also clean and decorate our houses very beautifully!Watch New Movies like Family Day accept that we go to mosques,we cook and eat scrumptious meals after starving our stomaches from morning till sunset for thirty days.When fasting, after sunset we say one Doa*(wish)to break the fast and eat.I would be very hungry.Our Malay neighbours exchanges foods with us for the fasting month.

For Hari Raya Haji,we also go to mosques and put on new clothes.But,last year, we celebrated in a different way from normally we celebrate every year.We went to my Grandma's house.We were soo late and tired because my brother was carsick and I did'nt have any time to sleep.We went to saciface goat first in my Grandpa's Restaurant.When I saw it I felt like vomitting!!and also the goat tried to come inside the restaurant(we were inside) as they were cutting in the back doorstep!We nearly jumped and screamed too!As the car was parked outside in the back we must be carefully go, if not we will step the goat.Bloody!It was awful but we have to sacriface!We later went to see the cows.So smelly place place(Malaysia),wet weather and muddy slippers!Horrible!Our cow from far looked soo thin and quiet.My relatives started making fun of the cow!Nasty!But,the cow showed the strength of it by shaking the whole shelter!OMG!But,it did'nt fall!Lucky!

Hope you have learnt something from my post about Festivals!
