JAKARTA - The Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) has revitalized 500 marbot houses of mosques that were affected by hydrometeorological disasters that occurred in a number of areas in Sumatra at the end of 2025.
"The Indonesian Ulema Council has also collected donations and collected funds to finance the rehabilitation of 500 houses for teachers of the Koran and marbot mosques in Aceh Province, North Sumatra Province, and West Sumatra Province," said MUI Nusron Wahid's Head of Disaster Management, quoted by Antara.
Nusron said his party also carried out rehabilitation of each mosque in the three provinces affected by the disaster.
"If there are other donors who want to donate, we are still open for it. We are doing all this in order for the Indonesian Ulema Council and Islamic organizations to always provide benefits to humanity," he said.
In addition, MUI also formed the MUI General Chairperson symbolically handing over the certificate to the residents affected by the disaster.
Nusron emphasized that this effort also gave an example to the people that the responsibility to overcome disasters is not only the responsibility of the government, but also the responsibility of the entire community.
It is known that President Prabowo Subianto and a number of figures also attended the event. President Prabowo arrived at the event location at around 10.00 WIB with several members of the Red and White Cabinet such as Cabinet Secretary (Seskab) Teddy Indra Wijaya and Minister of State Secretary (Mensesneg) Prasetyo Hadi.
Then, President Prabowo, accompanied by Minister of Religion Nasaruddin Umar, immediately approached the ranks of the MUI leadership and greeted them one by one. In the front row where the MUI leaders were, there was also the Chairman of the MPR RI Ahmad Muzani.
In addition, the event was also attended by more than 50,000 people from various Islamic community organizations (PKL) who filled the Istiqlal Mosque complex since 07.00 WIB. Some of them even came since dawn.
The congregation, dominated by all-white clothes, occupies the main worship room of the Istiqlal Mosque even to the fourth and fifth floors.
