Being A Guest Of The Miftahul Huda Tasikmalaya Islamic Boarding School, Mahfud Is Considered Mumpuni In Law Enforcement

JAKARTA - The general chairman of the Miftahul Huda Tasikmalaya Islamic Boarding School (Ponpes), Asep Maushul, assessed that the vice presidential candidate number 3, Mohammad Mahfud Mahmodin alias Mahfud MD is a capable figure in law reform enforcement.

"The most capable in law reform enforcement, Mr. Mahfud," said Kiai Asep when welcoming Mahfud at the Miftahul Huda Islamic Boarding School, Tasikmalaya, Friday, December 15, was confiscated by Antara.

Asep also said Mahfud was like one blood with himself being seen as a state official, as well as a santri and ulama.

"Mr. Mahfud is like blood with us, he is a student and a kiai, also the only legal reform figure who is expected to be Pak Mahfud," said Asep.

Mahfud visited the Nurul Huda Tasikmalaya Islamic Boarding School, which is the largest Islamic Boarding School in Tasikmalaya, after attending a meeting with kiai and caretakers of Islamic boarding schools throughout East Primangan.

"I visited and was part of the preparations for the presidential election. We exchanged ideas on how to build an Indonesia based on Islamic boarding schools. How Islam colored Indonesia's life as a national nagara. We have met the concept earlier and we will fight for it, so that Indonesia is more advanced, if the language of the Qur'an is so that it becomes the baldatun thayyibatun wa rabbun ghofur," said Mahfud.

Then when asked about the visit of Presidential Candidate Prabowo Subianto a few days earlier, Asep said that pesantren should accept anyone who attends.

"Whoever the guest is, we accept, we cannot refuse those who want to visit," said Asep.
