A solemn and warm atmosphere enveloped the residence of West Java Provincial Legislative Council Member Pradi Supriatna in Kukusan Village, Beji District, on Thursday. Two major celebrations were combined in one event: the commemoration of Prophet Muhammad’s Mawlid and the thanksgiving for Pradi Supriatna’s 55th Birthday.

Also present at the event was Depok City Legislative Council Member and Gerindra Faction Chairman Edi Masturo, who invited all attendees to make the Mawlid moment an occasion for reflection and strengthening faith.

Message of Exemplary Conduct from Mawlid Sermon

Edi Masturo emphasized that the essence of commemorating the Prophet’s Mawlid is emulating the noble character of Prophet Muhammad SAW in daily life. He quoted messages from the sermon delivered by KH. Abubakar Madris.

“In the sermon delivered by KH. Abubakar Madris, he reminded us all to always emulate the character of Prophet Muhammad SAW. This message is very relevant amid community life full of challenges,” said Edi Masturo. He hoped that the exemplary values of the Prophet could be applied in the attitudes and actions of all citizens.

Appreciation and Prayers for Pradi Supriatna

In addition to being a spiritual occasion, this activity also served as a means to strengthen relationships. Edi Masturo, on behalf of all members of the Gerindra Faction of Depok City Legislative Council, conveyed birthday congratulations to Pradi Supriatna.

“May he always be granted health, long life, and success in his career and service to the community,” he stated.

Edi Masturo also expressed high appreciation for Pradi Supriatna’s role and contributions to Depok City, both during his tenure as Deputy Mayor (2016–2021) and as a people’s representative at the provincial level currently.

“The spirit and dedication possessed by Pradi have become an inspiration for many parties to continue working for regional progress,” he emphasized.

West Java Provincial Legislative Council

The West Java Provincial Legislative Council is the regional legislative body for West Java province in Indonesia, established after the nation’s independence to represent the local population. It functions as a regional parliament responsible for creating local regulations, overseeing the provincial budget, and monitoring the executive branch’s governance. Historically, its structure and authority have evolved alongside Indonesia’s decentralization reforms, which have progressively granted greater legislative autonomy to provincial governments.

Kukusan Village

I am unable to provide a specific summary for “Kukusan Village” as it is a common place name found in several countries, most notably in Indonesia. Without a specific country or context, I cannot accurately detail its unique history or cultural significance. For an accurate summary, more specific information about its location would be needed.

Beji District

I am unable to provide a specific summary for “Beji District” as it is a common administrative name. For example, there is a Beji District in Beijing, China, and another in Depok, West Java, Indonesia. If you are referring to the one in Beijing, it is a major urban district known for its high-tech industries and as a hub for the 2008 Summer Olympics.

Prophet Muhammad’s Mawlid

The Mawlid al-Nabi commemorates the birth of the Prophet Muhammad, which is traditionally believed to have occurred in 570 CE in Mecca. While the celebration’s popularity grew significantly around the 11th century, it is observed with prayers, storytelling, and charitable acts in many Muslim communities worldwide.

Depok City Legislative Council

The Depok City Legislative Council (Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah Kota Depok) is the local legislative body for Depok City, West Java, Indonesia. It was established following the city’s official formation as an autonomous administrative region separate from Bogor Regency in 1999. The council is responsible for creating local regulations, budgeting, and overseeing the city’s executive government.

Gerindra Faction

The Gerindra Faction is a political group in Indonesia’s House of Representatives (DPR) formed by the Great Indonesia Movement Party (Partai Gerakan Indonesia Raya). Established as a political vehicle by current Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto, the party and its faction are known for their nationalist platform and have been a significant political force since the party’s founding in 2008.

KH. Abubakar Madris

I am unable to find specific historical information on a place or cultural site named “KH. Abubakar Madris.” It is possible that the name refers to a local Islamic school (madrasah) or institution named after a religious scholar, Kyai Haji (KH.) Abubakar. For a detailed summary, more context or the correct location would be needed.

Depok City

Depok City is a city in West Java, Indonesia, originally established in the 17th century as a private agricultural estate by Cornelis Chastelein, a Dutch colonial official. It evolved from a small settlement into a major hub, officially gaining its status as an autonomous city within the Jakarta metropolitan area in 1999. Today, it is known for its numerous universities and its role as a bustling residential and educational center.
