Questions 16 to 20
Dear Peter,
Thanks for you letter which I received yesterday. I had fun reading about how you
celebrate Christmas in New Zealand.
In Malaysia, I celebrate Hari Raya Aidilfitri. It falls on the first day of Syawal, which
is the tenth month in the Muslim calendar. It marks the Muslims success in fasting for a
month in Ramadan.
The festival is a joyous occasion. On this day, the Muslims put on their best clothes
and go to the mosque to perform prayers. Before leaving the mosque, we ask for
forgiveness from each other.
Then, we go home for a lovely meal with our families. We often have ketupat, a
special Hari Raya dish. It is rice cooked in a case made of woven coconut leaves. Ketupat
is usually taken with peanut sauce and rendang, which is meat cooked in thick, spicy
gravy.
I hope you have enjoyed reading about Hari Raya Aidilfitri. It would be wonderful if
we could celebrate the festival together. Bye!
Your pen pal,
Amir
