Gus Miftah Call Zulhas 'Papih' When His Islamic Boarding School In Sleman Visited

JAKARTA - PAN General Chair (Ketum) Zulkifli Hasan alias Zulhas visited the Ora Aji Islamic Boarding School (Ponpes) owned by Miftah Maulana Habiburrohman alias Gus Miftah.

Zulhas arrived at the boarding school on Saturday, May 20, at 20.15 WIB, and was immediately greeted by Gus Miftah. They then discussed and ate together.

Gus Miftah then invited Zulhas to attend routine recitations. On that occasion, Gus Miftah also invited the congregation and students to learn from the life journey of the minister of trade.

"Try, today we learn from Mr. Zulkifli Hasan, I call him 'Papiah' because I am close to him. What position has he ever achieved? The minister of forestry, chairman of the MPR, deputy chairman of the MPR, now the minister of trade," said Gus Miftah in a written statement, Sunday, May 21, confiscated by Antara.

According to Gus Miftah, Zulhas' life and success journey deserves to be imitated.

"There is no virtue after struggling. So, when we see the person we consider successful, what we actually have to see is not his current position, what does he have, what does he already have, what does he like, for me it's no longer interesting; but what needs to be seen? The process," said Gus Miftah.

On the same occasion, Zulhas also shared his life story with the congregation and students who were present. According to him, his life journey cannot be separated from prayers and supplies from both parents.

"I'm actually not greater than my friends here, not greater than the ladies and gentlemen who are here. I'm an ordinary person from the village, from the hamlet, but maybe my mother's prayer," said Zulhas.

Also accompanying Zulha during his visit to the boarding school in Sleman, Yogyakarta included Deputy Chairman of Commission III of the House of Representatives Prince Khairul Saleh, General Treasurer of the PAN DPP Totok Daryanto, Chairman of the Yogyakarta PAN DPW Suharwanta, Member of the Sleman Regency DPRD Raudi Akmal, and former Sleman Regent Sri Purnomo.
