ACTNews, TEGAL – On the very last
day of Ramadan 1443 AH, Sunday (5/1/2022), The Aksi Cepat Tanggap (ACT) Branch
in Tegal handed over a waqf motorbike from generous donors to a Muslim preacher
in Tegal who has dedicated himself to teaching Islam, Ustaz Fatkhudin. To
support his activities, Ustaz Fatkhudin used his old bicycle to go anywhere.
The ACT Tegal Branch Manager Siswartono said that Ustaz Fatkhudin is
one of the preachers who are persistent in spreading the message of Islam
although he has nothing to ride but his old bike. For Ustaz Fatkhudin,
preaching Islam is an act of worship that must be carried out consistently.
“Every day, he teaches teach Islamic classes for men, women, and
children in Islamic study circles and mosques. Due to financial difficulties,
Ustaz Fatkhudin relies on his old bicycle,” he explained.
Siswartono continued that the Waqf Motorbike
is expected to facilitate Ustaz Fatkhudin's mobility in carrying out his preaching
to expand his reach.
“The handover of the Waqf Motorbike concluded ACT’s programs this
Ramadan in Tegal. These programs included iftar and suhoor distributions, Eid
allowance for Muslim preachers and mosque caretakers, food package
distribution, and Eid packages for the elderly. We hope that we can hand over
more Waqf Motorcycles in the following months,” he said.
Arif Mustaqim, the fundraising partner of the Waqf Motorcycle Program,
appreciated ACT Tegal Branch for initiating programs to honor Muslim preachers.
He also expressed his support for ACT’s programs. "Hopefully these good
programs and collaborations can continue to be held in the future," he
said.
Ustaz Fatkhudin did not expect to get a new motorbike. He expressed his
gratitude and thanks to all those who have helped bring the motorcycle. "Insha
Allah, this assistance will be useful and hopefully become a source of reward for
everyone involved," he prayed.[]
