“…For Muslims, Eid al Fitr is a big day when they celebrate after a month of fasting throughout the holy month of Ramadhan. Indonesian Muslims celebrate by mutually asking for and extending forgiveness especially to one's parents (which is of the highest priority), followed by relatives, neighbors, and friends (Hakam, 2015). There are some practices relating to the Eid al Fitr celebration; called Riyaya in Geertz, (1960), such as mudik (homecoming tradition) for those living outside of their hometown or overseas (Yulianto, 2019), eating ketupat (Rianti et al, 2018), preparing new clothes and making Eid al Fitr cakes/snacks (kue lebaran), which are usually the best foodstuff for welcoming and serving the guests.…”

Indonesian Islam has its own unique characteristics as it is inseparable from local traditions and has been connected to the role of Indonesian Islamic organizations such as Nahdlatul Ulama and Muhammadiyah. This study observes the religiosity among Indonesian Muslims in Australia, especially in Sydney and Canberra in 2018. By conducting an online survey with 108 respondents, the study found that beside mandatory religiosity, Indonesian Muslims still very often perform nahdliyin-related religious activities such as celebrating halal bi halal, performing selamatan, requesting dua from ustadz, performing tahlilan and commemorating maulid an-Nabi. However, they prefer to pray teraweh with 11 rakaats and only very few respondents chose often and very often for teraweh with 23 rakaats. While most respondents felt being part of Nahdlatul Ulama, very few of them were an active member and a board member in Nahdlatul Ulama or Muhammadiyah. This is very interesting given the current rise of Islamism among Indonesian Muslims in Indonesia and overseas, as well as efforts made by some Indonesian Islamic organizations to spread moderate Islam throughout Western countries.

The present study responds to calls from global agencies, regulators and activist groups to understand the impacts of religion on purchase decisions. The study reveals the purchase preferences and behaviour of consumers on occasions of a religious festival, that is, Eid-al-Fitr in an emerging market. The study aims to explore consumption patterns along with the specific reasons and factors influencing the purchasing behaviour of Muslim consumers during Eid-al-Fitr . The study is conducted as an ethnographic research in Bangladesh. Observations and interviews (on 100 event actors) were conducted between July 2014 and June 2018. The results reveal that Muslims undergo a shopping spree during their biggest religious festival Eid-al-Fitr. Purchase behaviour among Muslim society in Bangladesh is influenced by the head of family or senior citizens of the society. The study also tries to address the link among market, goods, services and consumers during the Eid-al-Fitr. Finally, the study identifies several key factors such as biological, neighbouring countries and issues of affiliation which may affect the purchasing behaviour of consumers during the religious occasions.

“…Pada jaman dulu, orang-orang yang berstatus relatif lebih rendah mengunjungi rumah orang yang berstatus lebih tinggi, di mana ia diterima dan biasanya disuguh teh dan makanan ringan, yang secara resmi memohon pengampunan kepada tuan rumah. Praktik ini sejalan dengan simbolisme Jawa sehingga dianggap cocok dengan keberagaman orang Jawa (Hakam 2015 (Attabik and Sumiarti 2008). Sejalan itu, Faridah yang meneliti toleransi umat beragama di kompleks perumahan menemukan warga kompleks perumahan cenderung dapat menjaga toleransi beragama karena adanya kesadaran untuk menghormati keyakinan masing-masing orang dan bersepakat tidak saling mengganggu keyakinan orang lain (Faridah 2013).…”
