Assalamu’alaikum Wr. Wb. Honorable Juries Ladies and Gentlemen Sisters and brothers … First of all, let us praise to the Almighty Allah SWT, because of His Blessing we are able to attend this English speech contest. Secondly, may peace be upon the prophet Muhammad Saw who has guided us from the darkness into the brightness. I would also like to say many thanks to the juries and MC who have given me opportunity to deliver an English speech in front of you all. Ladies and Gentlemen, Today, I would like to talk about “Idul Fitri in Indonesia”. Idul Fitri (Eid al-Fitr), also known as the Feast or Festival of Breaking the Fast, is an important religious holiday celebrated by Muslims worldwide that marks the end of the fasting month, Ramadhan. The day of Idul Fitri is on the first day of the month of Shawwal. Muslims are prohibited to fast on that day, and the main ritual done by Muslims is praying in the morning or shalat Idul Fitri which is usually carried out in an open field or a large hall. As one of the biggest Islamic traditions, Idul Fitri is always celebrated happily by Muslims around the world. Sisters and Brothers, In our country, Indonesia, Idul Fitri is the biggest festival celebrated by our people. Idul Fitri, popularly called as ‘Lebaran’, is not only a religion festival but also a tradition that has become a part of our culture. Muslims in our country, just like in other countries, celebrate it happily. They recite incantation or known as ‘Takbiran’, and pray in the morning or Shalat Idul Fitri. On the day of Idul Fitri, Muslims also visit their families, relatives, and friends to ask forgiveness to each other. Ladies and Gentlemen, Regarding the celebration of Idul Fitri, each region in our country sometimes has a different way in celebrating Idul Fitri. It depends on the local tradition that may differ to the other part of our country. But, in celebrating Lebaran, it is common for Muslims in Indonesia do as follows: ©2013_ www.soehaarrr.com 1 1. Shopping. Before Idul Fitri comes, Muslims buy new clothes to wear on the day of Idul Fitri. 2. Homecoming. It is well-known as ‘Mudik Lebaran’, an annual tradition for people who work in big cities return to their hometown to celebrate Idul Fitri with their whole families. 3. Visiting Families or Friends. This term is called as ‘Silaturrahmi’, a tradition to visit families, neighbors, and friends to greet and ask forgiveness to each other. 4. Recreation. After celebrating Idul Fitri, people usually go to tourism objects to spend their holiday with their family members. Sisters and Brothers, Of all the traditions in our society that follow Idul Fitri, we must keep remembering what things that should be done in celebrating Idul Fitri. I think, based on our religion tradition, we should … First, recite the incantation or Takbir to the Greatest God, Allah SWT.; Second, pray or Shalat Idul Fitri; and Third, visit our families, neighbors, and friends to greet and to ask forgiveness to each other. Juries, Ladies and Gantlemen, Sisters and Brothers… I think that’s all my speech. Hopefully it will be useful for us. I am so sorry for any mistakes in my speech. I close my speech by greeting you all: “Happy Eid Mubarak; Happy Idul Fitri…” Thank you. Wassalamu’alaikum Wr.
