Moment of Prabowo's Halalbihalal Eid Celebration with Residents of Aceh Tamiang
President Prabowo Subianto took part in a halalbihalal gathering after performing Eid prayers at Masjid Darussalam in Aceh Tamiang, Aceh. Prabowo shook hands with the congregation at the mosque and directly distributed essential goods packages to the public.
Observations by detikcom on Saturday (21/3/2026) showed that Prabowo performed Eid al-Fitr prayers at Masjid Darussalam starting at 07.10 WIB. Prabowo also followed the sermon delivered by the preacher, Captain Inf Zulkhaizir.
After the Eid prayer, praises were recited as the congregation stood to shake hands. The worshippers lined up to shake hands directly with Prabowo near the mosque’s pulpit.
Following the halalbihalal with the community, Prabowo then distributed essential goods packages directly to residents. The packages were seen wrapped in blue-coloured bags and handed directly to the public.
Afterwards, Prabowo briefly inspected the temporary housing (huntara) located near the mosque. The huntara buildings appeared neat and already occupied by disaster-affected residents.
Prabowo was accompanied by the Minister of Home Affairs Tito Karnavian, the Minister for State Secretary Prasetyo Hadi, the Minister of Foreign Affairs Sugiono, the Deputy Minister of Agriculture Sudaryono, Aceh Governor Muzakir Manaf (Mualem), and the Cabinet Secretary Teddy Indra Wijaya.
Prabowo appreciated the various parties who have worked to accelerate disaster recovery in Aceh Tamiang. He stated that the disaster response in the area has been very swift.
“The repairs and recovery have been very quick. Alhamdulillah, nearly 100 percent,” said Prabowo after Eid prayers.
Prabowo mentioned that there are no longer any evacuees in Aceh Tamiang staying in tents. They have moved to permanent or temporary housing built by the government.
“There are no more in tents, 100 percent all have left the tents. They have entered temporary housing or permanent housing,” he said.
Prabowo expressed thanks to all the personnel working on the recovery from the Sumatra disaster. He noted that the improvements are now being felt by the residents.
“I am very proud, thank you to all the personnel, all the apparatus from TNI-Polri, BNPB, Public Works, local government, all ministries and agencies that have worked extraordinarily. They have worked extraordinarily to help the people in Aceh, North Sumatra, West Sumatra, and other provinces,” explained Prabowo.
