YOGYAKARTA — The month of Ramadan is a very special moment. Spreading kindness and generosity to others is the main goal of every Muslim in this blessed month. Ramadan is not only about refraining from hunger and thirst, but also about fostering social care, empathy, and kindness in daily actions.
As a philanthropic institution engaged in humanitarian and empowerment, Dompet Dhuafa continues to expand its social reach by collaborating with various partners, such as Bank Jago, Real Masjid, and Pakuwon Mall Jogja. Through this collaboration, Dompet Dhuafa rolls out activities aimed at spreading kindness to all levels of society, thus enabling wider participation in humanitarian action and social goodness.
Not only as a form of collaboration, this activity also enlivened the holy month of Ramadan 1445 H. Dompet Dhuafa held a Talkshow & Sharing Session with Bank Jago and Real Masjid at Pakuwon Mall Yogyakarta with the theme ‘Winning the Last 10 Days of Ramadan: Easy & Blessed Life According to Sharia’ on Saturday (30/3/2024). The speakers who attended this talk show included Content Creator Dio A. Diadon and Nur Fajriah Rachmah as Head of Sharia Digital Funding PT Bank Jago Tbk. This collaboration is an effort to bring benefits and blessings in accordance with sharia principles to the wider community.
In this context, living simply, full of blessings, and in accordance with religious teachings is the main goal. Ramadan is not only about refraining from eating and drinking, but also a moment of deep reflection on how we live our daily lives.
Previously on Saturday (2/3/2024), Dompet Dhuafa and PT Bank Jago Tbk also held a similar event at Pakuan University Bogor with the theme ‘Rangkai Lagi Satu-Satu Untuk Menangin Ramadan #SesuaiSyariah’ which aims to interpret Ramadan as a momentum in reconnecting the spirit of worship and life goals with Kang Rensu, Imam Muda Teman Hijrah, and Ustaz Zahid Samosir.
Bank Jaho’s Head of Sharia Digital Funding, Nur Fajriah Rachmah said, ‘As a technology-based bank embedded in the ecosystem, we understand everyone has different ways to achieve their financial goals. To help more people win Ramadan, Bank Jago invites people to prepare themselves and manage their finances better so that they can fulfil their good intentions including sharing kindness with others. One of the ways is by organising financial education activities to help more people achieve their financial goals.’
Bank Jago presents banking products and services, both conventional and sharia, that can be enjoyed by all levels of society. Through its innovation and superior features such as the Kantong (account) feature, customers can create up to 60 accounts with each account number that can be tailored to their financial goals. Such as Alms Pockets, Iftar Pockets, Eid Holiday Pockets with Family, and Emergency Pockets. That way, customers can segregate their funds so that they will not get mixed up, so that they can always be ahead in achieving their financial goals. As for customers who have sharia preferences, Bank Jago presents Jago Syariah which presents application features and innovations that are equivalent to the conventional Jago application with two contract options namely ‘Wadiah Yad Dhamanah and Mudharabah Muthlaqah’.
To help customers share with others in need, especially in the month of Ramadan, Jago Syariah provides a platform for collecting and distributing zakat, infaq and alms through the Jago Amal feature. This collaboration is carried out together with trusted institutions, one of which is Dompet Dhuafa.
On the other hand, Dio A. Diadon as a Content Creator shared habits and tips for doing good to optimise the last 10 days of Ramadan, by implementing sharia principles. Such as sharing with others, increasing worship, and improving behaviour to create a more meaningful and blessed life, inviting to integrate Islamic values in every aspect of life.
‘During the last 10 days of Ramadan, we should minimise our sinfulness as much as possible. This is the simplest and most difficult way for young people. If doing good deeds is better than 1,000 months, let alone when we sin on the night of the last 10 days. So, in the last 10 nights, keep pushing with prayer, so that Allah will make it easy and realise it,’ said Dio.
It is hoped that this will make it easier for visitors to Pakuwon Mall Yogyakarta to enjoy the event while gaining useful knowledge in the last 10 days of Ramadan.
‘Alhamdulillah, Dompet Dhuafa is collaborating again with PT Bank Jago Tbk. This is part of the effort to encourage millennials, especially to spread kindness. We hope that by collaborating with Bank Jago we can absorb millennials in spreading benefits and encouraging social programs, especially in the Yogyakarta and Bogor areas,’ said Etika Setiawanti as Director of Dompet Dhuafa Resource Mobilisation.
Also present on this auspicious occasion was Ustaz Rizal Wahid. During the event, Ustaz Rizal Wahid advised that the last 10 nights of Ramadan are the right time to improve ourselves.
‘If we are a sinner, then this is the best time for us. The purpose of the month of Ramadan is to make you pious, and one of the characteristics of pious people, said Allah, is not those who have never done wrong or sinned. God-fearing people are those who have sinned in the past, but today they remember Allah, begging Allah for forgiveness and not repeating the same mistakes. So in the last 10 days, it’s our time, so that when the takbirs come, we deserve to say congratulations because we won against our lust during Ramadan,’ added Ustaz Rizal Wahid.
