I still clearly remember the figure of Mak Sombret, a middle-aged woman who was willing to travel long distances and dig deep into her pockets to accompany her neighbor on the pilgrimage. After the story went viral, Mak Sombret's life has now changed drastically. From living in a miserable wooden house, now he has a sturdy house with cement walls.
Local residents are also happy about the good fortune received by one of the residents of Kulu village, Karanganyar District, Pekalongan Regency. Not only that, they also helped with the renovation of Mak Sombret's house which was completed in just 12 days.
The latest news is that Mak Sombret will go on Umrah for free on July 15. He then held thanksgiving before his departure for the Holy Land. Many residents came to pray for the woman's departure. The thanksgiving event will be held on June 30 2024.
Are you curious about the portrait at that moment? The following brilio.net collected from TikTok @adisiwanto12, on Tuesday (2/7). Here are 5 moments when Mak Sombret held thanksgiving before returning to the Holy Land in his new home.
After performing the evening prayers, Kulu residents flocked to Mak Sombret's house to attend the thanksgiving. It is known that the event was also attended by local village officials. It seemed that because many people were present they had to sit outside their homes.
