The Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) has unveiled the theme \u201cRamadan\nMonth of Humanity\u201d for its various Ramadan programmes this year, as\nannounced by PKS Secretary General Muhammad Kholid whilst opening the\n12-Hour Qur\u2019an Marathon event at the PKS Central Office Hall in\nJakarta.<\/p>\n
The 12-Hour Qur\u2019an Marathon activity during Ramadan was guided by\nMusthofa Faruq, Mahmuda Rizaldi, Rezky Cocip, and Yhuda Arifin.<\/p>\n
Kholid stated that the Ramadan theme as a month of humanity was\nchosen to affirm that Ramadan is not only understood as a moment for\npersonal worship, but also as a strengthening of social concern. \u201cWhat\nPKS aims to achieve this Ramadan is to present various Ramadan\nactivities with the theme Ramadan Month of Humanity. This theme is\nrarely emphasised, yet it is highly relevant. Ramadan is synonymous with\nthe spirit of sharing, helping, and mutual strengthening,\u201d said\nKholid.<\/p>\n
According to him, the spirit of humanity becomes increasingly\nimportant given the various disasters occurring in several regions of\nIndonesia. \u201cBesides being a month of worship and outreach, we also make\nRamadan a month of humanity so that we can help restore our brothers and\nsisters affected by disasters in Aceh, North Sumatra, West Sumatra, and\nother regions,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n
He also emphasised the importance of empathy towards the Palestinian\npeople\u2019s struggle as they continue to face prolonged conflict. \u201cRamadan\nshould also be a momentum to cultivate empathy towards our brothers and\nsisters in Palestine,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Kholid stressed that sharing in Islam is not something that\ndiminishes wealth, but rather brings blessings. \u201cSharing is not truly\nreducing what we have. In Islamic concept, sharing will actually\nincrease because God rewards it with manifold returns,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Throughout Ramadan, PKS is implementing various humanitarian\nprogrammes such as opening community kitchens in disaster-affected\nareas, programmes for breaking fast and pre-dawn meals with the\ncommunity, the Movement of a Thousand Youth Mosques, and encouraging PKS\npublic officials to actively share with society.<\/p>\n
Additionally, PKS will establish PKS Migration Assistance Centres to\nhelp those travelling for Eid homecomings. \u201cThe hope is that Ramadan\nbecomes a momentum to strengthen social awareness and human solidarity,\u201d\nconcluded Kholid.<\/p>\n
