I was invited by my Malay neighbors last year. While enjoying my makan (as I kind of love Malay food), I noticed the kids holding some small envelopes that look machiam our Ang Pow.

Do we have to give Ang Pow to our Malay friends when invited to their house for Hari Raya ?

Do they have a custom like our Chinese culture where only married couples can give red packets ? Or that only children are entitled to receive red packets ?

Not only individuals who are married, but any individual can make monetary gifts, in cash or cheque,
or nowadays, gift card(s).

No need. Because our money is not halal to them.
