The activity takes place solemnly and solemnly'.

After reading the tahlil together is finished, The event continued with a group meal. The shared meal is prepared by the mothers with a menu of rice and ingkung. We enjoyed the food served together. Of course eating together is not just something we usually do, but eating together with the villagers made us realize that harmony would be created through things like this. After the meal together was finished, we didn't forget to clean and rearrange the village hall as before. (Nuriyatul Maulidah)
