Darul Hikam Foundation (DH) held the "6th DH Run" fun run in Bandung on Saturday, January 18, 2025. More than 5,000 people joined, including children from kindergarten to adults. The 5-kilometer run started and finished at Gedung Sate, passing the well-known streets in Bandung such as Jalan Dago, Jalan Merdeka, Jalan Cilaki, GOR Saparua, and Jalan Riau. The Chairman of the Indonesian People's Consultative Assembly (MPR RI), Ahmad Muzani, participated in the run and praised the event. “I am very happy with this event because it inspires and encourages people to live healthily,” he said. He hopes that DH Run will continue every year so sports lovers can always take part. Meanwhile, the Chairman of the Darul Hikam Foundation, Sodik Mudjahid, explained that the event is part of Darul Hikam’s teamwork with many parties. “DH Run is one of our efforts to strengthen collaboration and synergy. Today, students, parents, teachers, the community, business partners, and small businesses (UMKM) have gathered to make this event more festive,” he said. Mr. Sodik also highlighted Darul Hikam’s role in education. “In a bigger picture, this event is part of our mission to expand and strengthen Darul Hikam as an educational institution.” He added that Darul Hikam plans to open 20 more school branches to spread Islamic education. The event organizer, Septi Yulia Roza, emphasized that DH Run is not about winning. “Because this is a fun run, we don’t have a podium for the fastest runners, but we have exciting prizes, including motorcycles and a full Umrah package, so don’t miss out!” Almost all the students of DHIS Primary also joined in the fun run with great excitement. They enjoyed the lively atmosphere, running alongside friends, teachers, and family members. Many of them were thrilled to receive prizes and gifts, making the event even more memorable. From lucky draws to special surprises, the students celebrated the day with joy, laughter, and a sense of achievement. Let’s meet again on the next DH Run, Warriors!
