KabarJawa.com— Takbir chants have been echoing since dawn in Mancingan Hamlet, Parangtritis Village, Kapanewon Kretek, Bantul Regency, Yogyakarta Special Region, Thursday (19/3/2026).
This sound not only marks the arrival of the day of victory, but also enlivens the atmosphere of emotion and gratitude during the 2026 Eid al-Fitr prayers by the congregation of the Asyghil Kubro Sholawat Council.
Since 06.00 WIB, hundreds of Muslims started arriving at the Parangtritis Harmoni Parking area. The takbir continues to sound, accompanied by the gentle sound of the beach breeze.
This moment creates a religious atmosphere that is both dramatic and calming, as if uniting heaven and earth in praise of the Creator.
Eid of the Asyghil Kubro Sholawat Assembly Congregation
The elder of the Asyghil Kubro Sholawat Council, Ustad Yusuf Mustagim, emphasized that his party determines the start and end of Ramadan based on the rukyatul hilal.
He explained that this year the congregation started Eid al-Fitr after receiving news of the sighting of the new moon from Afghanistan.
“Thank God, this year we have seen the new moon. The first news came from Afghanistan, and those who saw it there swore according to sharia,” said Ustad Yusuf confidently.
He added that this decision followed the words of the Messenger of Allah which read, “Fast when you see the crescent moon and break your fast when you see the crescent moon.” According to him, this principle is the main guideline in determining times of worship.
On this basis, the Asyghil Kubro Sholawat Council congregation chose to carry out the Eid prayer earlier than some other Muslims in Indonesia.
Even though he did not record the exact number of worshipers who attended, Ustad Yusuf confirmed that the number of Eid prayer participants continued to increase every year.
He stated that the Eid prayers did not only take place in Bantul, but were also spread across several other points in the Yogyakarta Special Region.
“We have four locations holding Eid prayers today. If we count them, the number of worshipers could reach more than 500 people,” he explained.
He also emphasized that the Asyghil Kubro Sholawat Council does not implement an official membership system. The congregation came voluntarily, driven by love of prayer and the desire to get closer to Allah SWT.
Zakat Fitrah has been paid
Before carrying out the Eid al-Fitr prayer, the entire congregation has fulfilled their zakat fitrah obligations. Ustad Yusuf confirmed that his party had appealed to the congregation to pay zakat no later than two days before Hari Raya.
“We have informed you several days ago, and thank God the congregation has paid their zakat fitrah on time,” he said.
This shows the congregation’s discipline in implementing Islamic law as a whole, not only in ritual worship but also in social aspects.
More than just a celebration, the Asyghil Kubro Sholawat Council interprets Eid al-Fitr as a momentum to strengthen spirituality and commitment to implementing Islamic teachings.
The congregation not only gathers to worship, but also prays for the Prophet’s intercession in this world and the hereafter.
Ustad Yusuf emphasized that the main aim of this assembly was to continue the struggle of the Prophet Muhammad SAW in upholding Islamic law in a kaffah manner.
“We hope that Allah will give us the ability to continue the struggle of the Prophet,” he said.
Differences in determining Eid are inevitable
Ustad Yusuf also admitted that differences in the timing of Eid Al-Fitr with the Indonesian government often occur. He said that this phenomenon was normal because the position of the new moon was not always the same in every region.
“Sometimes we agree with the government, sometimes we don’t. It all depends on whether the new moon is visible or not,” he explained.
He added that if the hilal is visible in Indonesian territory, then his party will carry out Eid al-Fitr at the same time as other Muslims who use the rukyatul hilal method.
Exactly at 07.00 WIB, the congregation began to perform Eid al-Fitr prayers solemnly. Ustad Yusuf Mustagim acted as both imam and preacher, delivering a sermon full of meaning about the importance of maintaining faith after Ramadan.
An atmosphere of silence enveloped the prayer area during the sermon. The congregation listened attentively. That day, Parangtritis also witnessed the togetherness, firmness of faith, and enthusiasm of the people in celebrating victory.
In the midst of differences in determining holidays, the Asyghil Kubro Sholawat Council congregation continues to show the same thing: sincerity in worship and hope for God’s approval. (ef linangkung)
PakarPBN
A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.
In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.
The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.
