The Ministry of Religious Affairs announced through its official social media account on Tuesday (Feb 17, 2026) that the first day of Ramadan 1447 H will fall on Thursday, February 19, 2026. Muslims across Indonesia are now preparing to welcome the holy month, including adjustments to academic and office activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At Universitas Negeri Semarang (UNNES), working hours during Ramadan have been adjusted through Circular Letter Number B\/3575\/UN37\/KP.08.03\/2026 on the Determination of Working Hours During Ramadan at UNNES.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the circular, working hours from Monday to Thursday are set from 7:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., with a break from 12:00 p.m. to 12:30 p.m. On Fridays, working hours run from 7:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. During Ramadan, morning assemblies and physical exercise sessions are suspended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dean of the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences (FISIP) UNNES, Prof. Arif Purnomo, encouraged students to remain enthusiastic in attending classes throughout the fasting month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cStay motivated in attending lectures during Ramadan. Make this a momentum to strengthen faith and character through the study of each student\u2019s respective discipline,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ramadan also brings a unique atmosphere to the Sekaran campus area in Gunungpati, Semarang. The tradition of ngabuburit<\/em> spending time together while waiting for iftar and hunting for takjil<\/em> (light snacks for breaking the fast) has become a highly anticipated moment for students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Salsa Aprilia, a fourth-semester History student, said that breaking the fast with friends is one of the most memorable experiences, despite heavy traffic around the campus area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cBreaking fast with friends. But it\u2019s really congested around Sekaran near campus. Honestly, though, it\u2019s fun to look for food here with friends while waiting for iftar,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Muhammad Irfan Setiawan, an eighth-semester Civic Education (PPKN) student, shared a similar sentiment. He said what he misses most is spending time together during ngabuburit<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhat I miss is ngabuburit with friends,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Meanwhile, Arjuna Enzo, a second-semester Political Science student, is looking forward to searching for takjil<\/em> before iftar, especially in the Patemon area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cLooking for takjil before breaking the fast, ngabuburit around Patemon,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With the official start of Ramadan and the adjustment of campus activities, the UNNES academic community is expected to remain productive while embracing the holy month as a time for reflection, character building, and togetherness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Ministry of Religious Affairs announced through its official social media account on Tuesday (Feb 17, 2026) that the first day of Ramadan 1447 H will fall on Thursday, February 19, 2026.
