ULM Sacrifices Four Cows on Eid al-Adha 1445 Hijriah

Banjarmasin – The celebration of Eid al-Adha is a celebration that is always awaited by Muslims all over the world. This meaningful day is a momentum to reflect on the values of sacrifice, obedience and social care.

Eid al-Adha, also known as the Feast of Sacrifice, commemorates the story of the sacrifice of the Prophet Ibrahim AS who was willing to sacrifice his son, Ismail AS, as a form of obedience to Allah SWT. Apart from that, this is also a moment that not only reflects sacrifice, but also provides various meanings to others, especially to those who are less fortunate

In celebration of Eid al-Adha 1445 Hijriah, Lambung Mangkurat University (ULM) also carried out the slaughter of sacrificial animals which was held in the Rectorate’s backyard, on Tuesday (18/6/2024). A total of 4 cows were sacrificed which was a collection of sacrifices from officials and employees within the ULM environment. Later, this sacrificial meat will be distributed to the surrounding community and also ULM employees.

ULM Vice Rectorr I, Dr. Iwan Aflanie is enthusiastic about carrying out the slaughter of sacrificial animals. He even went directly to slaughter the four cows which would immediately be distributed to employees and the surrounding community.

“Today we, the academic community at Lambung Mangkurat University, carried out the slaughter of sacrificial animals and thank God, we are here working together and the implementation has so far gone smoothly. “Hopefully we all get blessings from Allah SWT,” said Dr. Iwan.
