Zai Kuning

Zai Kuning is a traditional Malaysian ritual involving the coating of offerings, often fruits and food, with a powder made from turmeric, known locally as "kuning." This practice is performed during certain religious and cultural ceremonies to invoke blessings, show respect, or bring good luck. The vibrant yellow color symbolizes prosperity and positive energy. Typically, Zai Kuning is part of community celebrations or spiritual events, reflecting Malaysia's rich cultural heritage and the importance of rituals that connect communities through shared symbolism and customs.
