Salaam.. terpanggil saya untuk membuat posting informasi ini selepas sebelum ini pernah diberitahu oleh saudara saya akan asal usul perkataan Carnival (Karnival dalam bahasa Malaysia.)
Karnival memang selalu digunapakai oleh masyarakat kita terutama pihak-pihak masjid, jabatan Islam, NGO Islam dan sebagainya. Semoga informasi yang saya beri ini memberi manfa'at. Kepada jabatan, sesiapa yang berautoriti bolehlah memberi pandangan, hukum atau fatwa mengikut disiplin ilmu-ilmu yang dipelajari dan bukan mengikut nafsu serta akal logik.
WALlahu'alam
Islam juga ada identitinya tersendiri

Where does the word carnival come from?
A. The word carnival is of Italian origin and means carne vai or goodbye to meat. The origins of the carnival differ depending on where you live and what traditions you believe in. Primarily though, the celebration of the carnival is associated with the Catholic calendar and is usually celebrated on the weekend before Lent ending on Ash Wednesday the beginning of Lent, which lasts for 40 days up until Easter.
Traditionally, Catholics do not eat meat on a Friday during Lent and generally fast or abstain from overindulgence during Lent, so the carnival is a last celebration or symbolic goodbye party before abstinence. The term mardi gras is heavily associated with the carnival and literally means fat Tuesday - the day before Ash
Wednesday - and the final and wildest day of the carnival.
It is believed by some that the word carnival comes from Carne Levale - again of Italian origin - which were the due farmers had to pay in connection with their festivities before the 13th Century.
In pre-Christian Europe ceremonies and rituals surrounding nature took place all the time, with celebrations surrounding the seasons playing a big part in every day life. February was often the month when the bad spirits of winter were thrown out and houses were cleaned for the coming spring and rebirth of nature - celebrations would then take place in preparation for Spring around this time (at the end of February) which some people trace back to the beginnings of the carnival.

Carnival - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- You might also be looking for the circus. For other meanings, please see Carnival (disambiguation).
A carnival is a public celebration or parade combining some elements of a circus and public street party, generally during the Carnival Season. Carnival is traditionally a Roman Catholic and, to a lesser extent, Christian Orthodox celebration. Most Protestant and non-Christian areas do not celebrate it, with some Fundamentalist Protestant groups condemning the celebration, although the word carnival has passed into the vernacular and taken on secular meanings in
most areas of the Western world.
The Carnival Season is a holiday period during the two weeks before the traditional Christian fast of Lent. The origin of the name "Carnival" is unclear as there are several theories. The most commonly known theory states that the name comes from the Italian carne- or carnovale, from Latin carnem (meat) + levare (lighten or raise), literally "to remove the meat" or "stop eating meat". It has also been claimed that it comes from the Latin words caro (meat) and vale (farewell), hence "Farewell to meat". (Or, of course, farewell to the
flesh, letting go of the earthly or bodily self) Yet another theory states that it originates from the Latin carrus navalis, which was some kind of Greek cart carrying a statue of a god in a religious procession at the annual festivities in honour of the god Apollo. Most commonly the season began on Septuagesima, the third from the last Sunday before Ash Wednesday, but in some places it started as early as Twelfth Night, continuing until Lent. This period of celebration and partying had its origin in the need to use up all remaining meat and animal products such as eggs and butter before the fasting
season. The celebration of Carnival ends on "Mardi Gras" (French for "Fat Tuesday", meaning Shrove Tuesday), the day before Ash Wednesday, when the rigours of Lent's 40 days of fasting and sacrifice begin. It sometimes lasts until Piñata Weekend, the first Saturday and Sunday of Lent.
