'''' is the Indonesian popular name for two Islamic official holidays, Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha in Indonesia, and is one of the major national holidays in the country. holiday officially lasts for two days in the Indonesian calendar, although the government usually declares a few days before and after the as a bank holiday. Many individuals or families, especially Muslims take paid time off from their workplace during these days.
==Etymology== "Idulfitri" and "Idul Adha" are Indonesian spellings of Arabic "Eid al-Fitr" and "Eid al-Adha". While "lebaran" is a localized name for this festive occasion, the etymology is not clear. It is believed that it is derived from the Javanese word which means "finished". The word "lebar" is absorbed into the Indonesian language with the additional suffix "-an", so it becomes a common vocabulary for a celebration when the fasting ritual is "finished". Lebaran might also be derived from Sundanese word which means "abundance" or "many" to describe the abundance of foods and delicacies served for visiting guests; family, relatives, neighbors and friends during this festive occasion. Another theory suggested is that "lebaran" is derived from the Betawi language word lebar'' which means "wide and broad", so the celebration means to broaden or widen one's heart feeling after the fasting ritual of Ramadhan. Madurese people also have a similar word called lober to describe the completion of Ramadhan fast. It is also possible that the word 'lebaran' is derived from the word luber > luber-an > lebaran, which means overflowing or flocking.
