UIN STS Jambi Extends Eid al-Adha Blessings to Overseas Students

JAMBI- UIN Sulthan Thaha Saifuddin (STS) Jambi distributed sacrificial meat packages to international students on 28 May 2026, marking Eid al-Adha with a gesture of inclusivity. The event took place in front of the former Faculty of Ushuluddin building.

The initiative was aimed at allowing foreign students to experience the holiday as they would at home, while extending blessings to the wider university community.

Thai students Anwar and Baliya received packages from Vice Rector I, while Malaysian students Adam and Azmi were presented with gifts by Vice Rector II and Vice Rector III. The distribution was also attended by the Coordinator of the Centre for International Services and Cooperation (PLKI).

“We want everyone to feel the wisdom and blessings of Eid al-Adha, including international students,” Rector Prof. Dr. H. Kasful Anwar, M.Pd., said in his remarks.

Vice Rector II Dr. Pahmi, who chaired the organising committee, added: “We can report that this year’s sacrificial offerings were also distributed to foreign students at UIN STS Jambi, namely those from Malaysia and Thailand.”

The move underscores UIN STS Jambi’s efforts to strengthen ties with its international student body and promote a sense of shared community during one of Islam’s most significant observances.
