JAKARTA - The DKI Jakarta Provincial Government will hold the Eid al-Adha 1443 Hijri prayer at the Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) on Sunday, July 10. People are welcome to attend and pray together there.

Pls. The Regional Secretary for DKI Jakarta Province, Sigit Wijatmoko, advised the people who would join the congregational prayers at JIS to maintain order and discipline in carrying out health protocols.

Sigit appealed to residents who want to participate to comply with the rules, complete the third vaccine or booster, and continue to wear masks even in open spaces.

He also asked the public to bring personal worship equipment, attend Eid prayers and sermons solemnly, and not to crowd after the activity.

"Everything needed for Eid prayers has been prepared. All OPDs have also been assigned tasks to ensure that the congregational Eid prayer can run successfully. Therefore, let's continue to wear masks during the activity, and complete the booster vaccination," said Sigit in his statement, Thursday, July 7.

The Eid prayer 1443 H is located at the West Ramp, East Ramp, North and South concourses of the Jakarta International Stadium, North Jakarta.

However, the DKI Provincial Government has also prepared an alternative place for Eid prayer at one of the locations in JIS if it rains. It is planned that the Khatib will be Prof. KH Syukron Mam'un, and the Imam of the Eid prayer is KH Muhammad Ali.

During the Eid prayer, the DKI Provincial Government will provide various facilities such as ablution areas, parking lots, and toilets.

"Although a place for ablution has been provided, it is recommended to perform ablution from home to reduce queues and prayer can start on time," he said.

It is known that the Eid prayer is the second time held at JIS after the Eid prayer in May.
