Amidst academic routines and the hustle of work, the moment of Eid al-Adha serves as an important reminder for the Faculty of Dentistry, Universitas Gadjah Mada (FKG UGM) community to cultivate humility, sincerity, and solidarity through the act of qurban (animal sacrifice).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
FKG UGM held the animal sacrifice ceremony on Sunday, 8 June 2025, as part of the commemoration of Eid al-Adha 1446 H. The event reflects both religious devotion and the faculty\u2019s social responsibility toward the wider community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In his remarks, Prof. drg. Suryono, S.H., M.M., Ph.D., Dean of FKG UGM, expressed gratitude to all sohibul qurban(donors) who entrusted their sacrifices to FKG UGM. He also reminded participants of the values embedded in the ritual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe key lessons from qurban are gratitude to God Almighty, giving with sincerity, and practicing patience,\u201d said Prof. Suryono.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Drg. Mohammad Fadyl Yunizar, MPH., Ph.D., Chair of the Islamic Communication Forum (FKI) FKG UGM, also shared that the increased number of sacrificial animals this year reflects a spirit of togetherness and willingness to share within the FKG UGM community.\n\u201cAlhamdulillah, this year we have two cows and five goats. May they bring blessings and benefits to the recipients,\u201d Fadyl said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He emphasized that the slaughter process followed health and hygiene protocols, ensuring the cleanliness of the site, cutting tools, and meat-handling areas. Organic waste from the animals was buried, and the area was promptly cleaned to prevent disease risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The slaughtering was carried out by the organizing committee with support from the Halal Slaughterer Team (Juleha). Putut, a representative from Juleha, explained the importance of proper slaughtering techniques to ensure high-quality meat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOften, sacrificial animals experience stress, causing the brain to send signals to close the wound when an incision is made, which may block the carotid arteries. Therefore, it is crucial that the cut is done properly to allow complete blood drainage,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He stressed that proper slaughtering does not mean cutting twice, but ensuring blood is fully drained so that the meat is healthier and safe for consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meat distribution took place between 11.00 a.m. and 2.00 p.m., reaching not only the internal FKG UGM community but also surrounding areas in Yogyakarta, including Sleman, Kulon Progo, and Gunungkidul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This annual qurban program has become a routine agenda at FKG UGM. Beyond worship, it strengthens solidarity within the campus community and extends social benefits across the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
