Jakarta, MINA – Deputy Grand Sheikh of Al-Azhar University in Cairo, Muhammad Ad-Duwainy, met with the Indonesian Minister of Religious Affairs, Yaqut Cholil Qoumas, in Jakarta on Tuesday.

As reported by Republika online, the meeting discussed strengthening educational cooperation between Indonesia and Al-Azhar, which hosts approximately 15,000 Indonesian students studying at its campus in Cairo, Egypt.

According to Ad-Duwainy, Indonesian students represent the largest number at Al-Azhar University. They are recognized for achieving academic excellence and demonstrating good moral conduct.

Ad-Duwainy expressed appreciation to the Ministry of Religious Affairs for their cooperation and role in ensuring proper regulations to prevent any adverse outcomes. He emphasized Al-Azhar’s commitment to producing outstanding generations with a moderate Islamic perspective (wasatiyyat Islam) who serve as ambassadors of Al-Azhar worldwide.
