JAKARTA - President Prabowo Subianto held a joint fast-breaking with a number of Islamic figures and leaders at the Merdeka Palace, Thursday night, March 5, 2026. In addition to Ramadan greetings, the meeting also included discussions on the "hot" issue, namely the readiness for the Lebaran holiday and global geopolitical turmoil.
Cabinet Secretary Teddy Indra Wijaya said that the figures who attended included Rais Aam PBNU K.H. Miftachul Achyar, Muhammadiyah General Chairman Prof. Haedar Nashir, and MUI Chairman K.H. Anwar Iskandar.
"This evening, Thursday, March 5, 2026, President Prabowo Subianto broke his fast with Rais Aam PBNU K.H. Miftachul Achyar, Chairman of Muhammadiyah Prof. Haedar Nashir, Chairman of the Indonesian Ulema Council K.H. Anwar Iskandar at the Merdeka Palace, Jakarta," said Teddy in a written statement.
According to Teddy, the conversation did not stop at the Iftar meal. "While breaking the fast, President Prabowo talked and discussed the preparations for the Lebaran holiday in the country, as well as discussing the world's geopolitical dynamics," he said.
This meeting shows that the palace's communication channel with the leaders of Islamic mass organizations remains open. Especially when social issues in the country and global tensions both suppress the movement of the community. At the end of his statement, Teddy conveyed his greetings to the public who carried out the fasting: "Selamat berbuka puasa bagi saudara-saudara yang menjalankan ibadah puasa."
