A heartwarming initiative at the Yayasan Johor Ramadan Bazaar has been making waves on social media, offering free Raya clothes to those in need.
A recent viral story highlights a kind-hearted man who organised this ‘free market’ at the Johor Ramadan Bazaar, distributing Baju Melayu to the less fortunate at no charge.
A marketplace of generosity
A TikTok video shared by user @mufarizam captured the bustling scene of the initiative, which attracted a significant crowd, particularly senior citizens.
Many elderly men and women were seen carefully selecting their preferred outfits, some meticulously inspecting the garments while others sought their spouses’ opinions before making a choice.
Aside from baju Melayu, the initiative also offered jubahs and other traditional clothing in a variety of sizes and colors, allowing more people to benefit from this generous act.
The free market event not only provided clothing but also spread joy and kindness, reinforcing the spirit of giving during Ramadan.
Netizens’ reaction
This heartwarming gesture highlights the importance of community support and generosity, touching many netizens who expressed their blessings in the comments.
‘Hope that those who can afford it don’t take it. Prioritise those who truly need it.’
‘It’s so sad. We buy new Raya clothes every year, but for those who can’t afford it, they may not have bought new Raya clothes in a long time.’
‘Whoever started this, thank you so much. May God elevate your status and bless you with more sustenance!‘
