Today's story

 

Today is Friday, but what I want to talk about is not the day itself but what I did today. We received a notice from the university rector to wear Islamic attire in anticipation of the upcoming National Santri Day on October 22nd. So, all the students at IAIN Palangka Raya were required to wear Islamic clothing as the dress code for lectures today.

When I entered the classroom, I saw my friends wearing very neat Islamic attire. I smiled because this was a rare moment that happened in our class. Even around the campus, everyone was wearing Islamic clothing; women wore hijabs and men wore traditional Islamic shirts (baju koko) paired with sarongs.

Today, we had two lectures. After the classes, we exited the classroom and went down the stairs. We gathered in the campus courtyard and took a group photo to capture this rare moment. After that, we went back to our respective homes. And that concludes my story for today.
