JAKARTA - West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil attended the Eid prayer 1444 Hijri/2023 AD with thousands of residents from various regions in the Greater Bandung area at the Al Jabbar Grand Mosque, Bandung City, Thursday, June 29.

Ridwan Kamil predicts that the number of residents who participate in prayers at the mosque is half of the capacity of around 40 thousand people, because prayers are held in the courtyard of the Al Jabbar Mosque.

"There are an estimated number of people, yes, thousands. Because the capacity of Al Jabar is almost almost 40 thousand, if it's outside half that much," said Ridwan Kamil, quoting Antara.

The community had visited the Alkohr Grand Mosque at around 06.00 WIB. Then, prayers started at 06.30 WIB after Ridwan Kamil gave a speech.

On this Eid al-Adha, Ridwan Kamil admitted that he sacrificed at two points, namely where he lives and at the Al-Kur Mosque.

At the Al Jabbar Mosque, he sacrificed a limousine cow and handed over to the Rancanumpang Village, Gedebage District.

Ridwan Kamil congratulated Muslims on having a happy holiday, especially in West Java. He also invited the public to imitate the nature of Prophet Ibrahim and Prophet Ismail who were willing to sacrifice.

"Hopefully the spirit of sacrifice of Prophet Ibrahim and Ismail will accompany the wisdom of our life's journey to always sacrifice for glory," he said.
