As the holy month of Ramadan draws to a close, millions of Muslims around the world eagerly anticipate Hari Raya Idul Fitri, a significant celebration marking the end of fasting. In 2025, this joyous occasion is set to be observed on Monday, March 31, according to the Islamic calendar 1446 Hijriah, as confirmed by the Ministry of Religion (Kemenag) in Indonesia.
The schedule for Lebaran 2025 is also outlined in the Joint Decree (SKB) of three ministers, which includes provisions for national holidays and joint leave for the year. However, the official confirmation of 1 Syawal 1446 H, or Lebaran 2025, is still pending the results of the isbat session, a traditional practice where the new moon is sighted to determine the start of the celebration.
Hari Raya Idul Fitri, often referred to as Eid al-Fitr, is more than just a religious observance; it symbolizes a time for family reunions, forgiveness, and community bonding. The essence of this celebration lies in the spirit of togetherness, as Muslims express gratitude for the strength shown during the month of fasting and seek to strengthen their relationships with family, friends, and neighbors.
