maal hijrah

it has been a normal routine for malaysian to celebrate the coming of new year with doa akhir tahun and awal tahun. this year while looking for meaning of doa, i stumble upon a website yg cakap benda tu wasn't sunnah from rasullullah or even para sahabat. I was shocked. i tot that was normal practise. told my mum n sis. all of us also shocked. pastu my sis googled more and found a ceramah from dr asri. he said, there is no such thing as doa awal tahun or doa akhir tahun. we should ask for forgiveness everyday not only at the end or at the beginning for the year. the so call hadith yg always digunakan at some book to justify this ritual wasnt in the real Hadith or even Hadith diragui. it a really man made and contains mystic element. x ingat the exact statement but something like syaitan cakap yg penat dia kacau umat Islam but because of one second baca doa terus rosak segala kerja diorang selama setahun. so up to u to believe it or not. just some sharing which i think what dr Asri say is true.

in a country where Islam predominates, it is often the case where religion and culture are mixed. We think something is religious when actually it is cultural. This is sometimes referred to as cultural islam. go back to the koran
