SABAK BERNAM: Since he was a child, Aidilfitri celebrations at the home of popular online personality Agy have been filled with laughter and shared moments with the family.
Last year, the video of the 30-year-old’s family dancing to the song “Alamak Raya Lagi” went viral, amassing 30 million views on TikTok. Internet users were delighted to see how close-knit his family was as they joyfully celebrated Hari Raya together.
For Agy, whose real name is Muhammad Affizy Mohd Khairy Rajan, it takes some effort to make Raya festive. “Just because we’re adults, it doesn’t mean Raya has to be dull. In fact, the older we get, the more effort we should put into making Raya fun.
“Don’t wait for Raya to bring us joy – instead it is up to us to make Raya enjoyable,” he told FMT.
Agy’s family happily comes together to support his endeavours.Indeed, much joy is evident in Agy’s festive video this year, “Cerita Raya Agy”, which has received overwhelming response since its release in late February.
The song, composed by Farique with lyrics written by Adah and Agy himself, has garnered at least 350,000 views as of press time.
“I made this music video to capture memories with my family – grandparents, parents, aunts, cousins, everyone. One day, when we look back, we’ll remember this moment,” said the oldest of four siblings.
Muhammad Affimim.Agy’s younger brother Muhammad Affimim, 25, agreed that making the Raya celebrations lively takes some planning.
“When we were kids, we didn’t think too much about it – everything was just fun,” he said. “But as adults, if we don’t put some effort into making Raya exciting, it just won’t feel the same.”
For Agy’s mother, Fadhilah Khamzah, 51, money doesn’t necessarily make Raya merrier.
“Sometimes, the rich have subdued celebrations. It’s the common folk like us who enjoy the festivities more,” she said.
Agy’s uncle Nor Ahmad Khamzah also takes the trouble to make the Raya celebrations special. He has earned the nickname “Tok Dalang” (the mastermind) from others in the family.
Nor Ahmad Khamzah.“We take turns breaking fast at each sibling’s house throughout Ramadan. My house is the last one. On Malam Tujuh Likur, I light up oil lamps and hang twinkling lights as these get the kids excited. It’s these memories that they will take with them into adulthood.”
Truly, for Agy’s family, Aidilfitri is more than just a reunion after a month of prayers and self-reflection: it’s a celebratory experience created together, intertwined with traditions passed down through generations.
“If Raya feels dull, maybe it’s because we haven’t tried hard enough to make it more enjoyable,” Agy concluded with a smile.
