Members of the three main religious confessions of Dár Lífasyám (Orthodox Christians, Muslims, and Catholics) celebrate as "religious public holidays" the main religious holidays of their faith: Christmas and Easter for Christians and Eid al-Adha and Eid al-Fitr for Muslims. According to national laws, everyone has the right to get days off work on the dates of their religion's main holidays; municipalities with particular minorities can decide to declare local public holidays on those days. The dates of these holidays are calculated using the Julian calendar for Eastern Orthodox Christians, the Gregorian one for Catholics, and the Islamic calendar for Muslims. Lifashian Christians celebrate Christmas on the same date as Theophany, using the Gregorian date (as do Armenians), corresponding to 16 or 17 day depending on the year in the Lifashian calendar. | The Day of the Paris Commune (''hámor tosy komúné Parízyi'') on 27 isfandi, commemorating the uprising of the National Guard of Paris on 18 March 1871 / 27 isfandi 46 p.R., had been reintroduced in 1998 after being a holiday in the early Soviet era; however, after three years, it was removed from the list of public holidays as it was deemed too close to Nowruz anyway; the Day of the Renaissance was instituted to replace it. | ||
