Re: First Person You Hug On Eid?

Salam alaykum

Maybe friend as all my family are Christians. They don´t spend Eid at all.

:embarrass
 
Same here, in Palembang. I think now it's become a tradition of Indonesia :D
Aha, anyway we only do this to the elder. ^

Not every elder, actually. My younger brother told me "Sungkem to you? No way!" ;D

By the way, how you call "sungkem" in Palembang language?

It's not common in my family to hug each other so I can't say I will be doing much hugging. However I do have two baby nieces, so I plan to hug the cutest one of the two only :hiding:
 
Today I went to salah Eid with my kids, my brother, my sister, and their spouse. But the first person who I really hugged was my friend. I meet him on the way back to my home.

Mashaallah! Mashaallah! Eid Mubarak to you and your (naughty;D) kids :)
 
family only, sometimes random strangers wanna hug me, can't blame em, eid day I have a lot of Nur coz I am not hungry, I sample mums' samoosa's before that.:shade:



Am I the only one who thinks the eid hug should be done standing on only one leg??? now imagine how much more sincere that hug will be compared to a two legged affair????:bump1:
 
In Malaysia we practice similar to what bro Ardianto illustrated on the first page. We normally start with our parents first (usually who is available and in most cases it is the father, then the mother) then it is the most senior members of the family before gravitating to distant relatives etc.

Once married, usually it starts with the spouse and then to parents and so on....

For me it would be my wife and kids first as they are with me, then to my mum (as my dad passed away 20 years ago) and then my grandma, followed by uncles and aunties.... Usually it is hugs and kisses too!:hiding:

As-salamu 3laikum,

This year the first person I hugged was my friend who came to pick me up. Last year, I don't remember, it may have been a friend's mother or maybe some sisters I didn't know.
 
Ofcourse Our Father, Because We Often Eid Prayer Together. Then 1st we meet with father
