During Raya celebrations, a little girl’s adorable reaction stole the spotlight when she insisted she hadn’t done anything wrong and refused to say her “maaf zahir dan batin”.
During Eid al-Fitr, a celebration marking the end of Ramadan, Muslims engage in a tradition called “maaf zahir dan batin,” which means asking for forgiveness.
Shared by a TikTok user “abfamily10,” the video shows a father teaching his young children how to ask for forgiveness from elders.
“I did not do anything wrong!”
While the son goes through the ritual smoothly, his little sister steals the show.
Reluctantly, after kissing her father’s hand—a sign of respect—she refuses to say sorry for her past year’s mischiefs.
“I did not.” She replied when asked if she did anything wrong.
But when her dad lists her small misdeeds, she bursts into tears, showing how overwhelming such a moment can be for a child.
“Remember you shout and make noise? And refuse to listen to your mother and brother?” The father jokingly reminds her.
After she cries, her father quickly comforts her, and the mood lightens when he tempts her with “duit raya,” money given to children during Eid.
Her first time meminta maaf zahir dan batin
Speaking to WeirdKaya, the father shared that the little girl’s name is Aubrey, and she is only 3 years and 4 months old.
“This is her first time going through this during Raya.” He explains.
Aubrey is the youngest with only one elder brother in the family.
Charmed every netizen
Later in the video when she was asked to smile for her duit Raya, her tears turn into laughter, charming everyone around and those watching online.
Her father jokingly captions the video with “Women are never wrong,” and the video quickly went viral, garnering 4.5 million views on TikTok.
