Makassar — The Sharia division of HIPMI (the Indonesian Young Entrepreneurs Association) in South Sulawesi recently held its Ramadan outreach program, known as Syiar Ramadhan, at the Nurul Iman Telkom Mosque in Makassar. Takdir Khair, Head of the Social and Community Affairs Division, explained that this initiative is spearheaded by his department and serves as an annual fixture during the holy month of Ramadan.
Khair noted that the two-day event took place from March 11–12, 2026. It featured five distinct competition categories: the Call to Prayer (Adzan), children's Islamic preaching (Pildacil), Qur'an recitation (Tilawatil Qur'an), Marawis music, and Shalawat Badar. Contestants ranged from kindergarten and Islamic elementary school students to boarding school residents, mosque youth groups, and women's prayer assemblies (Majelis Taklim).
In his opening remarks, H. Bahtiar, Chairman of HIPMI Syari'ah South Sulawesi, emphasized that Ramadan is a noble month in which Muslims should maximize religiously oriented deeds. He expressed hope that all association board members, committee staff, and participants would actively engage in the program to broaden their understanding, gain experience, and enrich their worship during the holy month.
Andi Amar Ma'ruf Sulaiman, Chairman of the South Sulawesi Regional Executive Board (BPD) of HIPMI, also attended the event to present prizes to the winners. His presence demonstrated the regional board's appreciation for the Sharia chapter's initiative, with hopes that the tradition will continue in future Ramadans.
