Lebaran after Ramadhan Month
At the end of the month of Ramadhan and its special religious observance is the Eid holiday, called Idul Fitri or Lebaran in Indonesia. In Indonesia, this is the time when Muslims visit their family and friends to ask for forgiveness for any wrongs they have committed in the previous year. They express this wish in the phrase “Mohon Maaf Lahir Batin” which means “forgive me from the bottom of my heart/soul for my wrongdoings in the past year”. A traditional Arabic (Muslim) greeting for the Eid celebrations is also commonly used in Indonesia “Minal Aidin Wal Fa Idzin”, which is expressed upon meeting friends and family during the festive days. Traditional foods are consumed, family and friends gather to ask forgiveness and exchange greetings, new clothing is worn, children receive gifts of money and visits are made to recreational parks — all to celebrate the successful completion of the fasting month. On Java, prior to the start of the fasting month (but not during it), visits are made to the graves of family ancestors (nyekar) to pay respects, clean the grave and leave flowers, causing major traffic jams near all major cemeteries.
Idul Fitri begins with mass prayer gatherings early in the morning at mosques, open fields, parks and on major streets. It is an amazing sight to see rows of hundreds of Muslim women all dressed in their mukena (white, head-to-toe prayer gowns) performing the synchronized prayer ritual. Muslim men tend to wear sarong, traditional shirts and peci hats to Idul Fitri morning prayers. On the walk home from the mass prayers, quick visits are made to friends in the neighborhood to ask for forgiveness.
Following the morning prayers and neighborhood visits, visits are made to close family members around town. Family members go to their parents first and then to the most senior relative’s house (oldest person in the family) to “Mohon Maaf …” with family members. Then depending on your age/status in the family, you visit aunts and uncles homes to do the same. At each house drinks and cookies or snacks are served, and since it is very impolite to refuse the food, by the end of the day you are so full you can hardly move. These customs may entail several days of visiting relatives and often there will be a gathering of family members at the senior-most relative’s house.
Employees may also visit the homes of their senior bosses in the company or critical business colleagues and government officials to “Mohon Maaf … ” after their family visits are completed. In Jakarta, these customs entail days and days of visiting relatives and colleagues resulting in a great time of family reunions and upset to normal working/living schedules. Many people also take the opportunity of the Lebaran holiday to visit recreational parks.
While gathering with family, it is customary for the adults to give the young children some money … they may meet you at the door shaking their wallets! It is also customary to distribute money to children in the poor neighborhoods around your home, Rp 500 or 1,000 per child will bring huge smiles to their faces!
In Jakarta neighborhoods there may also be organized fun and games sponsored by local businesses … including climbing a greased pole to try to get to the prizes on the top called panjat pinang. A fun site to see!
Strongly held traditions to visit family at this time necessitate the exodus of 3 1/2 million (yes million!) people from Jakarta alone, as well as additional millions from other urban centers, to rural villages and hometowns for the Lebaran holiday. The logistics of this exodus cause headaches for the government each year. During this period the streets in Jakarta are nearly empty as the population decreases by nearly one third. The hardships and inconveniences endured by the travelers in overcrowded buses, trains and cars is unbelievable, yet they feel that this is a small price to pay to spend the holidays with their family and friends. Traditionally these urban dwellers come bearing gifts or money earned during the previous year for their family.
They often return from the exodus accompanied by relatives and friends looking for work in the cities, furthering the pressures of urbanization. The government attempts to prevent the “socially undesirable” such as beggars, vagrants and others from migrating to the cites, but the task is overwhelming.
During the weeks after Lebaran many groups hold halal bilhalal gatherings where employees from a company, friends, colleagues or members of an organization gather to share a meal and ask each other’s forgiveness. Non-Muslims are often invited to participate in these festive gatherings also.

Hitler : Neugeist / Die Weisse Fahne
Neugeist / Die Weisse Fahne (German magazine New Thought movement)
According to the stenographic transcripts translated by Hugh Trevor-Roper talks between Hitler and his inner circle that took place between July 1941 and 1944, Hitler referred to himself as a vegetarian (however, the British historian Allan Bullock argues that Hitler could not allow the use of a recording and written transcripts were edited by Bormann).
According to those transcripts dated November 11, 1941, Hitler said, “One may regret living in a time when it is impossible to form an idea of how that world will take in the future. But one thing I can predict the meat eaters: the world of the future will be vegetarian. ” On January 12, 1942, said: “The only thing that I will be unable to share with the sheikhs is the lamb with them. I’m a vegetarian, and I must excuse of his flesh.”
In private conversations, Hitler often recited the benefits of eating raw vegetables, fruit and grains, particularly for children and soldiers. In an attempt to spoil food and cause your guests to stay away from meat, graphically recounted stories of his visits to a slaughterhouse in Ukraine.
The writer on food Bee Wilson says:
“I had fun spoiling the carnivorous appetites of your guests … Just like your forks down in disgust, he could harangue for hypocrisy. This shows how cowardly people are, ‘he would have said.’ They can not afford to do certain horrible things to themselves, but enjoy the benefits without a pang of conscience. ”
Bee Wilson
In November 1938, an article in the British magazine Homes & Gardens described the house in the mountains of Hitler’s Berghof. Phayrethe Ignatius wrote, “A life long vegetarian at table, the headings in the kitchen of Hitler are all varied and full of products. Even with the meatless diet of Hitler, is a type of gourmet, as Sir John Simon and Anthony Eden were surprised to notice when they ate with him at the Presidential Palace in Berlin.
His Bavarian chef, Herr Kannenberg, stock a stunning array of vegetarian dishes, tasty and rich, pleasing to the eye and the palate, and all according to dietary standards required Hitler ”
In a journal entry dated April 26, 1942, Joseph Goebbels described Hitler as a convinced vegetarian, writing:
“An extended chapter of our talk was devoted by the Führer to the vegetarian issue. He believes more than ever before that eating meat is bad for humanity. Of course, he knows that during the war can not be completely alter our food system. After the war, however, intends to address this problem also. Maybe he’s right. No doubt the arguments put forward in support of his views are very convincing. ”
