Just to share
These are the photos my dad took on Sunday ( 1st Syawal) morning during sholat Ied in one of the big " mesjid" near by parent's home in Jakarta.
My father always go there each year during sholat Ied to take picture ( his hobby)
He said he likes the feeling of the love between the people be in Muslim and Non Muslim.
He normally will chat with some of the people. And there is no sign of racist and trashing other religions at all. Which is a good example for us.
Indonesia as we all know is the biggest Muslim country in the world. But there are also Christian/Catholic, Buddhist, Hinduism.
The country , like most of the countries in the world,is still struggling do erase racism ( to erase it 100% seems to be impossible right now) but I think to be able to share one of the most important day for other religion in peace and love is a good start. It is must start with each individual.
My dad taught me to see beyond the horizon and to love beyond the boundaries.
And I believe when we see the world with an open heart, we will capture more loves.
