    Two International Speakers Were Highly Anticipated By The Audience Of Gistrav Education Talk Vol.1

    SLEMAN – Gistrav Islamia School – Jogja has once again strengthened its quality as an International Islamic School through its outstanding programs to be an educational institution which can answer the demand and challenge of the fast-changing world, especially in regards to diversity of the world. One of the programs to achieve that goal which has been designed by Gistrav Islamia School-Jogja is Gistrav Education Talk (GET).

    On Thursday, 29 April 2021, GET Vol. 1 has been successfully held. Bringing ‘Multiculturality in Education’ as its grand theme, GET Vol. 1 aimed to open the broader insight, especially for parents and school stakeholders, in facing the education challenges in this modern world. This event was held virtually with two speakers invited from Japan and Malaysia; Mr. Saidan, the principal of Sekolah Republik Indonesia Tokyo – Japan, and Mrs. Khadijatul Azada, the Chief Brand Officer of The Sunnah School Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

    Running for two hours, each speaker talked about multiculturalism in their institutions. The first speaker presenting was Mrs. Khadijatul Azada who was bringing a very interesting talk under the topic of ‘From Islamic school to the world: Shaping the young golden Muslim generation with great multicultural understanding’. The most insightful point she brought was how The Sunnah School is able to create and maintain the harmony of the culturally diverse students and staffs at their school by always going back to the basic value of Islam through Quran verses and sunnah. Meanwhile, the second speaker, Mr. Saidan, explained and discussed how the Indonesian students living in Japan appreciate the different cultures while still upholding their identity as Indonesian people under the topic ‘Indonesian education abroad: How to be standing locally among the Japanese society’.

    More than 30 participants joined the event directly through Zoom Meeting, and the other hundred participants following the events from both Instagram and YouTube live. Led by Miss Astika Nurwidyawati (Academic Director of Gistrav Islamia School) as the moderator, the event was running smoothly and it was full of enthusiasm from the participants who asked interesting questions to the speakers and filled the polling session to rate the GET Vol. 1 and gave their recommendation for the next talk betterment. This event was ended by taking some photographs with all speakers and participants. (*)

  • 10 Days Have Passed Since Ramadan, What Have We Done?

    10 Days Have Passed Since Ramadan, What Have We Done?

    Time flies so fast that Ramadhan has been running for 10 days. Unfortunately, although many of us are eager to welcome Ramadhan with good preparation, only a few really maximizes their worship, while others are still in the ‘warming-up’ stage of worship. Yet, whatever it is, as long as we take advantage of Ramadhan by improving the quality of our worship, there is nothing wrong with that.

    For some people, the day passing in the month of Ramadhan can be a sadness, especially if it is not used to act in a God pathway (fiisabilillah). Taking advantage of the month of Ramadan is not only about mahdhoh worship, but other positive activities such as attending science majlis or studying can also be done to fill the time of Ramadhan.

    مَن سلَك طريقًا يطلُبُ فيه عِلْمًا، سلَك اللهُ به طريقًا مِن طُرُقِ الجَنَّةِ

    Whoever takes the path of studying, Allah will make it easier for him to go to heaven” (Narrated by Timidzi and Abu Daud)

    As there are still 20 days left to the end of Ramadan, let’s make the most of it so that we can get the maximum goodness in this year’s Ramadhan, as we cannot guarantee that we will be able to meet Ramadhan next year.

    Gistrav Islamia School Jogja provides the program you can follow to fill you the time during Ramadan. This program allows you to meet the best speakers from other countries that will give best insight about education and learning wrapped in Online International Conference. The program is called “Gistrav Education Talk (GET) Vol. 1”. InsyaAlloh, by joining this international conference, you will live your Ramadhan up, as you gain useful insight, just like studying. Therefore, we will gain more reward from Allah ﷻ beyond hunger and thirst, insya Allah. (*)
