PORTALJABAR, DISTRICT. BEKASI - Plh. Bekasi Regent Iyan Priyatna, accompanied by the Head of the Welfare Section of the Regional Secretariat of Bekasi Regency Indra Satria Nugraha, handed over and witnessed the slaughter of a sacrificial animal in the form of a cow at the At-Taqwa Putra Islamic Boarding School, Ujung Harapan, Bahagia Village, Babelan District, Monday (17/6/2024).

Iyan said, this Eid al-Adha, the Bekasi Regency Regional Government provided sacrificial animals totaling 45 cows and 4 goats.

"We distribute these sacrificial animals to various mosques, Islamic boarding schools, Islamic organizations and orphanage beaches in the Bekasi Regency area, one of which is the At-Taqwa Islamic Boarding School," he said.

He said that Eid al-Adha is expected to be a momentum for the community to increase social awareness.

"In addition to increasing social awareness and emulating the sacrifice of the Prophet Abraham, in the current context, we can apply our sacrifices to our own devotion, of course accompanied by the intention of worship," he said.

He also hopes that in the future the Bekasi Regency Regional Government can increase the number of sacrificial animals for the people of Bekasi Regency.

"In the future, we want to be able to distribute this aid to remote areas of Bekasi Regency," he added. (Diskominfo, Bekasi/Revo Regency)
