This year’s Eid will be a special moment for Nunung. The senior comedian plans to return to her hometown in Solo as usual, but this time she also wants to gather the courage to visit her mother’s grave. Previously, her husband had invited her to perform a pilgrimage before Ramadan, but at that time she wasn’t ready.
"God willing, because my husband wanted to invite me to perform a pilgrimage before fasting, 'come on' but I wasn't ready. 'Promise me for Eid, okay? We'll visit mom's grave, right?' God willing," said Nunung when met in the Tebet area, South Jakarta, on Sunday (16/3/2025).
The Eid tradition in Nunung's family remains the same as in previous years. After the Id prayer, they gather, forgive each other, and eat together. However, until now, Nunung has not dared to join in the pilgrimage.
"It's just the usual, Id prayer, after the prayer, forgiving each other, then eating together. They go on the pilgrimage, I'm still not brave enough, I'm at home. It feels like I still can't forgive myself, so there's still a sense of fear. For now, I can only pray," she revealed.
