Salat Idul Fitri 2025 at Masjid Negara IKN had to be canceled due to ongoing mosque construction. In a statement by Troy Pantouw, the Special Staff for IKN Authority’s Head in Public Communication, the decision was made considering technical factors and the need for further improvements in accessibility. The information was reported by detikKalimantan on Wednesday, March 26, 2025.
Reasons for Cancellation:
-
Ongoing Construction: Masjid Negara IKN is still under construction, with substantial risks involved, especially in the roofing structure and minaret work. The overall construction progress has only reached 54.3%.
-
Accessibility Issues: Apart from the incomplete building, the road leading to the mosque requires enhancements to facilitate the movement of visitors and worshippers. Ensuring the safety and comfort of the congregation is a priority.
Despite the anticipation for the completion of Masjid Negara IKN, the authorities deemed it necessary to prioritize public safety and construction progress, leading to the unfortunate cancellation of the Idul Fitri prayer gathering for 2025.
