He added that\nzakat fitrah aims to ensure all societal groups receive meat from the\nslaughtered animals. \u201cFor Eid al-Adha, the key component is animal\nprotein. It is expected that during the sacrifice season, no one goes\nwithout meat,\u201d he said. \u201cWhoever needs it, there is a hadith that a\nJewish woman was hungry on that day; the Prophet said no one should go\nhungry. Regardless of religion, take it,\u201d he said. Previously, Deputy\nMinister of State Secretariat Juri Ardiantoro stated that the\ndistribution of sacrificial cattle from Prabowo to the public is part of\nthe Presidential Social Assistance Program (Banpres). Juri stressed that\nBanpres has been ongoing for years. \u201cThe purpose of the President\u2019s\nsacrificial cattle is government assistance to the public. The aim is\nfor those in need to celebrate Eid al-Adha by slaughtering sacrificial\nanimals together,\u201d Juri said in a statement on Wednesday, 27 May 2026.\nAccording to Juri, as a form of public assistance, the use of Banpres\nbudget allocation is standard practice and has been part of government\noperations in previous years. Juri stated that personally, Prabowo also\nperforms the sacrificial ritual using his own funds. Prabowo\u2019s personal\nsacrificial animals are also slaughtered and distributed to the\npublic.<\/p>",
