Deputy Chairperson of the National Awakening Party (PKB) Jazilul Fawaid asked President Prabowo Subianto to reject Miftah Maulana's resignation from his position as Special Envoy for the President for Religious Harmony and the Development of Religious Facilities.

According to him, Miftah could make a big contribution and support to President Prabowo to build the community.

"We hope that Pak Prabowo does not accept Gus Miftah's resignation, because actually Gus Miftah is also a pro wong cilik. I am very sure that Gus Miftah will be able to make a bigger contribution to the community," said Gus Jazil, his nickname.

He also hoped that Miftah would not resign from her position as President Prabowo Subianto's Special Envoy.

According to Jazilul, the blasphemy incident against a tea ice seller named Sunhaji has been completed because the two have forgiven each other.

Moreover, continued Jazilul, Miftah with humility was willing to come and apologize directly to Sunhaji's residence in Gesari Hamlet, Banyusari Village, Grabag District, Magelang Regency, Central Java. In addition, Miftah also plans to hold an grand recitation at Sunhaji's residence.

"As humans, all of us, anyone including the kiai, do not escape the wrong. If Gus Miftah in his lecture there is a tongue sprain, it is human. After all, he is willing to apologize directly and has been forgiven, but I am sure there will be much more good advice given by him so far," he said.

On the other hand, he considered Sunhaji's condition to be very lifted because of the viral incident and became a public conversation.

"We just take the lesson and make it a lesson together. There must be a lot of wisdom behind this incident. We'll know, the kiai is just a joke, it's a blessing, let alone prayers and advice," he said.

Jazilul then said that Miftah has been very popular with the little people, this can be seen in every recitation that is held is never quiet and gives blessings to the community.

How many people get wisdom and blessings every time Gus Miftah holds recitations. There are small traders who can sell, and many more, in addition to the good advice he conveyed," he said.

Previously, Miftah Maulana decided to resign from her position as Presidential Special Envoy Prabowo Subianto for Religious Harmony and the Development of Religious Facilities.

"Today, with all humility and sincerity, and with full awareness, I would like to convey a decision that I have thought deeply. After praying, praying, praying, and istighfar, I have decided to resign from my duties as the Presidential Special Envoy for Religious Harmony and the Development of Religious Facilities," said Miftah.
