PALU - The General Chair of the Alkhairaat Executive Board, Habib Ali bin Muhammad Aldjufri, is seeking the XI Alkhairaat Conference to be opened directly by President Joko Widodo (Jokowi), at the end of July 2022.
"The invitation has been sent by the executive committee to the President and we are still waiting for the answer, hopefully it will be accepted so that President Joko Widodo will immediately open the XI Conference," he said in Palu, Thursday, July 14.
He explained that the focus of discussion in the implementation of the congress was the evaluation and opening of madrasas and Alkhairaat Islamic boarding schools to Java and Sumatra.
Another goal of the congress, Ali continued, is to foster the spirit of inter-Abnaulkhairaat friendship from generation to generation, to maintain the message of the founder of Alkhairaat, namely Guru Tua or Habib Idrus bin Salim Aldjufri.
The Chairperson of the Steering Committee of the X Alkhairaat Congress, KH Zainal Abidin, ensured that all the administrators of the regional commissariat (komwil), regional commissariat (komda), and the Alkhairaat Autonomous Body were present at the congress.
"Those who will attend are 14 Komwil, 27 Komda, and the Alkhairaat Autonomous Body, and so far the entire series of preparations is 90 percent ready, we have monitored several congress participants such as those from the Papua region who have left for Palu," he said.
He stated that the evaluation on the agenda of the congress was to renew the contents of the articles of association (AD) and by-laws (ART) as agreed by the late Main Chair Habib Saggaf bin Muhammad Aldjufri.
This change is considered important because in entering the second century, Alkhairaat will face various challenges that are difficult to predict with certainty in various sectors.
"Because in the future we will not only talk about religion anymore, but talk about how to develop organizations, not only at the national level, but how the Alkhairaat's roles at the global level are like at the Rabithah Alam Islami Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) conference in Mecca," he said.
He said the importance of preparing Alkhairaat to face future challenges.
"We designed these various preparations starting from infrastructure, management, digital-based systems, to increasing human resources in Alkhairaat itself," he concluded.
