JAKARTA - Secretary-General of the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) Buya Amirsyah Tambunan, appealed to the public not to ignore health protocols when carrying out religious and worship activities to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus. As for the implementation of the Eid prayer, it should be adjusted to the conditions of each region.
For people in the red zone, he suggested praying at home to avoid crowds.
"There are many things that need to be emphasized, in the MUI fatwa it is stated that mosques in red zones, or areas with high COVID-19 cases, must stop or close access to worship so that the spread of infection can be minimized," said Amirsyah, Wednesday, June 23.
He suggested that this year's congregational Eid prayer should be abolished. In particular, in areas where cases are rising. “Congregational prayers in the red zone should be abolished. Even in the green zone, the process must be carried out strictly," he continued.

He said that until now MUI continues to coordinate with the Central and regional Indonesian Mosque Councils (DMI) so that health protocols continue to be enforced. To create cohesiveness and togetherness in creating safe conditions for all parties.
“It is obligatory to uphold prayer, maintaining health is also obligatory, but prayer can be done anywhere while maintaining health must be done anywhere. While Eid al-Adha prayer is sunnah, don't let the sunnah beats the obligatory one," explained Amirsyah.
