《 原谅 》A time for forgive and forget

“Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri mohon maaf lahir dan batin”
开斋节是个意义非凡的回教徒宗教节日。回历的最后一个月份，是神圣的，教徒利用斋戒来体验饥饿，感受贫穷。而开斋节，在迎接全新一年的同时，回教徒也会祈求得到原谅，原谅自己在过去一年所犯下的罪。

Hari Raya is a time to reconcile and renew relationships with others. During the month of Ramadan leading up to Hari Raya, Muslims are not supposed to eat or drink from dawn to sunset during the month of Ramadan. Aidilfitri is celebrated for the whole month of Syawal, but in Malaysia, only the first two days are observed as public holidays. Besides that this is also a time to forgive and forget past quarrels. Asking for pardon is done in order of seniority. The younger members of a family approach their elders (parents, grandparents etc) to seek forgiveness, to salam (Muslim equivalent of a handshake), then kiss the hands of the older person as a sign of respect.
