First Stone Laying of PBM Lampung Santri Dormitory

LAMPUNG — Dompet Dhuafa held a groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of a santri dormitory at the Koranic Learning Center (PBM) in Cahaya Negeri Village, West Abung District, North Lampung, on Thursday (10/11/2022). With this santri dormitory, it will complement and support teaching and learning activities (KBM) in the integrated salam education environment. In the PBM area at present, the Az-Zahra Mosque, Al-Syukro Kindergarten, classrooms, and houses for asatiz have been established.

Also attending the event were Ismail Agus Said as Dompet Dhuafa’s Waqf Ambassador, Juperta Panji Utama as Dompet Dhuafa’s General Manager of Social Services, Gunaido Uthama as West Abung Sub-District Head and also local community leaders.

Gunaido highly appreciated and supported this PBM. He congratulated the start of the construction of the santri dormitory in the PBM area. For him, with the existence of PBM in West Abung District, North Lampung, it will become a center of Islamic education for the community.

“We pray that this construction will run well without any obstacles,” he said.

On the same occasion, Agus expressed his gratitude to all elements that supported the development of the PBM area. “Alhamdulillah, until this moment everything is running smoothly,” he said.

Furthermore, Ismail explained the big agenda of the establishment of this PBM area is to provide opportunities to recite the Quran for the surrounding community at all age levels. The construction of this boarding school is to facilitate children to learn and memorize the Quran comfortably and safely. That is the goal.

“Thank you to the surrounding community who have supported all PBM activities and also to donors who have donated some of their assets for the benefit of the people. We believe that the power of the people when united will have an extraordinary impact,” Panji added.

Panji also explained that the construction of the student dormitory through the waqf instrument will be a provision for all those involved in the afterlife. As long as this building exists and continues to provide benefits, as long as children learn the Koran and pursue knowledge, then Insha Allah, the rewards will also go to all those involved in it.
