Alhamdulillah, on Thursday, October 2, 2025, AL-WILDAN ISLAMIC SCHOOL once again marked the departure of its Overseas Programme Batch 5, bound for the holy land of Al-Haramain.
This historic and hope-filled moment signifies the beginning of a profound educational journey for our beloved students. They will be studying at the Islamic University of Madinah and will have the invaluable opportunity to learn directly from esteemed masyaikh (scholars), both on campus and in the sacred study circles (majlis) of the Prophet’s Mosque (Masjid Nabawi).
During the send-off, Prof. Dr. Abdurrahim Al-Basyir, M.Pd., President Director of AL-WILDAN ISLAMIC SCHOOL, imparted words of profound wisdom. He advised the students to:
- ✨ Maintain the sincerity of their intention, seeking knowledge solely for the sake of Allah ﷻ.
- ✨ Uphold proper etiquette (adab) as the primary foundation of seeking knowledge.
- ✨ Always pray for their parents, whose love and sacrifice have brought them to this gateway of knowledge.
- ✨ View this opportunity to study in the holy land as a great trust (amanah) that must be fulfilled with utmost seriousness.
He also reminded them that this golden opportunity is a significant trust. Not everyone is granted the blessing of studying in the holy land, and therefore, every step must be intended as an act of worship and a means of seeking the pleasure of Allah ﷻ.
“True knowledge is not merely about accumulating information, but about cultivating humility, noble character, and closeness to Allah ﷻ.”
At the end of his address, Prof. Dr. Abdurrahim Al-Basyir, M.Pd. concluded with a heartfelt farewell:
“Farewell, my dear students. Study well at the Islamic University of Madinah. Study well in the Prophet’s Mosque, the mosque of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.”
📖 The entire AL-WILDAN ISLAMIC SCHOOL family prays that all participants of the Overseas Programme Batch 5 are granted blessings, ease, and success throughout their sacred journey of knowledge in the holy land.
