Persis Ramadan Expo 2026 at Trans Studio Mall Bandung to Synchronise Religious Outreach, Education, and Community Economics
Several Islamic organisations have planned various activities during Ramadan to enhance knowledge and faith. One notable initiative is the Persis Ramadan Expo 2026, organised by the Central Leadership of Persatuan Islam (PP Persis), which will be held from 6–8 March 2026 at Trans Studio Mall (TSM) in Bandung.
This inaugural and historic event will feature activities that integrate Islamic outreach, education, and community economic empowerment. Dr KH Jeje Zaenudin, MAg, the General Chairman of PP Persis, has called upon the Muslim community to take advantage of this opportunity as a way to welcome and honour the month of Ramadan.
“We invite all Muslims to attend and participate in the Ramadan activities through the Persis Ramadan Expo 2026 at TSM Bandung,” he stated. According to him, the event is designed as a platform combining religious values with the strengthening of grassroots economics and community education. Ramadan should serve as a space for actualising faith whilst empowering the community.
The Persis Ramadan Expo 2026 will present various programmes oriented towards enlightening the community, with diverse activities designed to provide comprehensive and contextual Islamic knowledge and education. Jeje emphasised the importance of maximising the essence of Ramadan to create tangible impact, noting that Ramadan is not merely a routine of worship but also a momentum for social transformation.
“Ramadan should be filled with beneficial activities that have an impact on oneself and the surrounding environment,” he said. He described the organisation of this expo as a crucial milestone in the organisation’s journey, expected to become a landmark of synergy between Islamic outreach and community empowerment in the public sphere.
H Tatan Ahmad Santana, the Executive Chairman of the Persis Ramadan Expo 2026, explained that the expo will be centred at several strategic locations within the TSM Bandung area, with events taking place at the Grand Mosque, ballroom, and western car park. The expo will focus on three main issues: Islamic outreach, education, and economics, all considered relevant to contemporary community needs.
The event will be open to the Persis family and the Muslim community in general, featuring exhibitions, bazaars, and a series of sermons showcasing Islamic scholars and educational figures. Tatan highlighted education as a crucial aspect that Persis continues to promote in all its outreach efforts. He referenced E Abdurahman, a senior Persis figure, who described the organisation’s strategic role in building the community, noting that Persis sometimes functions like invisible roots strengthening society, but must also demonstrate its presence visibly in the public sphere.
“On one hand, the organisation sometimes needs to be like water that not only provides benefit and welfare, but also shows strength and the magnitude of its numbers. Let us fill Ramadan with goodness and righteous deeds by participating in the Persis Ramadan Expo 2026,” he concluded.
