Ma'arif NU, a leading educational institution has Encouraged the existence of so-called Islam Wasathiyah (moderate Islam) in the 2013 curriculum on the sidelines of a full-day focused study at the NU headquarters in Jakarta on Thursday.
The chairman of Ma'arif NU, H Arifin Junaidi said, one of the reasons behind the need to reverse Islam Wasathiyah was the importance of coloring the nationality-based values at the school level. This effort, he continued, was a step to deal with the 'right' Islamic movement which is already inherent in the education system.
"We can enter into all lines with the aim of tackling a khilafah state. The way they use is to consider the works of Muslims like the book of barzanji for example," Arifin Junaidi said.
According to Arifin, despite having the same meaning, but using the term Islam Wasathiyah is more 'safe' and not resistant compared to another term so-called 'Islam Nusantara'.
Present in the event were chairman of the Indonesian Waqf Board who is also former Minister of Education M. Nuh.
In his speech, Nuh said that this effort would produce a good strategy for NU in particular and other other civil society organization sin general.
The scholarly forum also took up the substantial issues of developing curriculum such as ethics, skills and knowledge. (Ahmad Rozali/Masdar)
