Indonesian Ulema Council leadership activities

Overview

The Vice Chairmen of the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) have engaged in various domestic and international activities.

KH Cholil Nafis, Vice Chairman, addressed a controversy involving preacher Habib Alwi bin Abdurrahman Assegaf, urging Muslims to avoid gatherings led by him following a video perceived as demeaning toward women. Nafis emphasized that religious messages should remain polite and educational. Additionally, Vice Chairman Marsudi Syuhud expressed support for the Prabowo Subianto-Gibran administration’s priority programs, such as the Free Nutritious Meals initiative.

On an international level, Marsudi Syuhud represented Asia at the 40th International Meeting for Peace in Assisi, Italy. During the forum, he advocated for global peace and the use of religious principles—such as the Islamic concept of ‘salam’ and the ‘Madinah Model’ of pluralistic leadership—to resolve ongoing armed conflicts in regions including Gaza, Ukraine, and Myanmar.
