Girls’ Religious Program at SMP Al-Siddiq International: Fiqh Study on Fasting in Ramadhan for Female Adolescents
SMP Al-Siddiq International held a girls’ religious program (Keputrian) on Friday, February 6th, 2026, at 12.00 p.m., located in Classroom 8 Aisyah binti Abu Bakar. The activity was attended by female students and aimed to strengthen Islamic understanding and character building among young Muslim women. The program carried the theme “Fiqh Study on Fasting in Ramadhan: Rulings, Wisdom, and Application for Teenagers.” The session was delivered by Ustadzah Retno Suzanne Handayani, Lc. and Ustadzah Mila Febri Wahyunu, Lc., both of whom are leading Qur’an teachers at SMP Al-Siddiq International and graduates of Al-Azhar University, Cairo. During the session, the speakers explained the Islamic rulings of fasting in Ramadhan, including its requirements, pillars, actions that invalidate fasting, and the spiritual and social wisdom behind this act of worship. The discussion was closely related to the daily lives of teenage girls, such as maintaining sincere intentions, proper fasting etiquette, emotional control, and responsibility as young Muslimahs. This program provided many benefits for female students, including strengthening their understanding of Islamic jurisprudence, encouraging correct and conscious worship, and cultivating positive character traits such as patience, discipline, and social awareness. Fasting also offers specific benefits for women, including self-control, improved physical health, and better mental and emotional balance. Through this keputrian activity, it is hoped that the female students of SMP Al-Siddiq International will be able to apply the values of Ramadhan in their daily lives, not only during the holy month but also in shaping themselves into knowledgeable, ethical, and responsible Muslim women.By Umair Shoddiq, S.I.Kom
