In the spirit of Ramadan, let’s be tired, thinner and weaker FMTNews
It’s Ramadan, and Muslims are fasting, fighting off the temptations of earthly pleasures – food and drinks and, you know, the other stuff too!
Hari Raya was even tougher. Once we were so broke all that we could afford for our Raya meal was fried mee hoon, made cheaply using broken mee hoon leftovers from the packages of regular mee hoon. My mother would also make nasi ulam, rice mixed with finely chopped shoots and salted fish. These days, nasi ulam looks like it’s been made with food colouring or perhaps even green dye. My mother’s version would have 17 different shoots and herbs in it!
The ice would go into syrup drinks laced with sesame seeds, which always looked like frog eggs to me. My mother would celebrate Hari Raya, then immediately go into six more days of fasting. And throughout the year she’d probably be fasting for almost three months, something quite common among the elderly Muslims.Recently, somebody on social media went viral when he posted that it’s OK for non-Muslims to eat and drink around him. This should have been taken for granted, but lately this matter has been so skewed and became such a sensitive matter.
