Hi, Fikomers!

The Islamic New Year is a special and meaningful moment for Muslims around the world. Every 1st of Muharram, we are reminded of the historic Hijrah (migration) of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) from Makkah to Madinah—a spiritual journey filled not only with trials and sacrifice but also with unwavering faith, determination, and hope for a better life.

Hijrah is not merely about physical movement—it signifies a deeper transformation: a journey toward becoming a person who is more devout, noble in character, and beneficial to their surroundings.

The arrival of Islamic New Year 1447 H is the perfect opportunity for self-reflection—to look back on our life over the past year and set new intentions and better steps moving forward. Whether it be improving our worship, strengthening social ties, upholding ethical communication, or contributing meaningfully to those around us—every act of change counts.

Just as the Prophet’s Hijrah brought monumental change to the course of Islamic history, let us make this moment a fresh start to elevate our personal growth and renew our commitment to spread goodness in society.

With sincere hopes, the entire academic community of the Faculty of Communication Sciences, Gunadarma University, proudly wishes:

“Happy Islamic New Year 1447 H.”
May this new year bring peace, happiness, and blessings in every step we take.

Let us welcome 1447 Hijri with a clean heart, renewed spirit, and strong determination to grow, inspire, and bring meaning to every role we play in life.

In the spirit of Hijrah, let’s strive for goodness! 🌙✨

Hi, Fikomers!

Eid al-Adha is one of the most meaningful Islamic holidays. It is not only about the ritual of sacrifice but also about strengthening the values of sincerity, compassion, and selflessness in our daily lives.

In the spirit of Eid al-Adha, we are encouraged to forgive one another, purify our hearts, and strengthen the bonds of togetherness. The act of sacrifice is more than a ritual—it is a real symbol of a sincere heart willing to share and let go of something valuable for the greater good.

Eid al-Adha is also a special moment to share blessings and happiness, especially with those in need. Through the spirit of sacrifice, let us weave unity and strengthen social solidarity in our communities.

Happy Eid al-Adha 1446 H / 2025 AD 🌙🐐🐪
May this year’s Eid celebration bring blessings, peace, and joy to us all. Let us continue to uphold the spirit of sincerity and generosity in every step of our lives.

The Faculty of Communication Sciences, Gunadarma University, wishes you: Happy Eid al-Adha!

Hi, Fikomers!

June 1st marks a historic and deeply meaningful moment for the Indonesian nation, as it is the day when Pancasila was born as the foundation of our country. More than just a symbol, Pancasila is a way of life that shapes our national identity and unites various differences into one strength through diversity.

As the nation’s foundation, Pancasila upholds noble values of unity, justice, humanity, deliberation, and belief in the One and Almighty God. Amid diverse cultural, ethnic, religious, and ideological backgrounds, Pancasila serves as a solid pillar that maintains harmony and social solidarity within our society.

This Pancasila Day reminds us of the importance of preserving tolerance, respecting differences, and nurturing the spirit of mutual cooperation (gotong royong). Only through unity can we build an inclusive, fair, and progressive Indonesia.

Let this moment be a call to embrace the values of Pancasila in our daily lives—in campus environments, within families, and throughout society. With the spirit of Pancasila, we are better equipped to face the challenges of our time with strong hearts and open minds.

Happy Pancasila Day, June 1st, 2025 🇮🇩
Let us continue to uphold the spirit of nationalism and unity in diversity. The Faculty of Communication Sciences at Gunadarma University proudly wishes you: Happy Pancasila Day!

Dear Fikomers,

Ascension Day is a significant moment commemorating the event of Jesus Christ’s ascension into heaven, which took place 40 days after His resurrection.

“May peace and grace always accompany our steps.”

Wishing a meaningful Ascension Day to all who celebrate.
