Long Life Learning

O you who believed, when you are told “space yourselves” in assemblies, then make space; Allah will make space with you. And when you are told, “Arise” then arise; Allah will raise those who have believed among you and those who given knowledge, by degrees. And Allah is Acquainted with what you do. (Mujadila:11)

Hi, my name is Nina, I’m the student of International Class Program batch 2013. Honestly, I don’t have great achievement like other students. One thing that I have is I am a book lover since when I was a kid. Actually when I was a child, I don’t know why I love book so much. I felt that my world was there. Then when I grow up, I know that book is a friend who never hurt me, even it gives me information and entertainment that I need.

When I joined International Class Program, I still a book lovers. I liked to visit some book fairs and I bought many kinds of cheap books. I collect it, untill my cupboard was full of book. Moreover, I visit some libraries such as a local library in Salatiga, and also Cahaya Community that was built by Mr. Jauharudin Motohar (now, he lives at Kalibuntu Wetan)

Not only a book lovers, but I also a learner in every situations. First I enter International Class, my interest is not in Arabic and English, but something that I give more attention is in Qur’anic memorizing. Yeah, my first till my third year Iived at collage boarding school, but the last year I spent my day in Rumah Tahfizh Daarul Ilmi Salatiga to continue memorizing holy Qur’an.

Friend, there is a secret motivation of mine to join International Class, in which there is a very interesting program. Every student of International Class Program is obligated to memorize at least 4 chapter of Qur’an. Alhamdulillah I have passed it, in ICP I’ve memorized 4 chapters , then when I continue in Rumah Tahfizh Daarul Ilmi I got 3 chapters, the total chapter I’ve gotten are 7 chapters. Now, I am struggling to keep it on my mine and create my atidute as someone who memorize it. I very enjoy memorize Qur’an, till now it is the medicine of my heart and the best healing version by mine if there is problem happen in my life. Although I am not a hafizhah just wish me and my family to always keep on Qur’an.

As I said that my story is not as special as others, after graduate from International Class Program, I didn’t continue my study to master degree but I decide to marry first. The life after marriage is the begginer finding the real me. I live 3 years at Yogyakarta then I follow halaqoh, thats the cass for me when I get trouble of my soul, it gives me more energy. I’d like to say thank you for International Class Program that build my character into someone who love myself sincerely and a long life learner one.





As I said that I am a book lovers, then I try to looking for an inspirator. I try to create a hobby as a productivity which gives beneficial for others. Then I have an idea to summarize the content of book in my social idea, because if we share the knowledge, the knowlegde of us will raise up and not easy to dissapear from our mind and heart. I’d like to say once again that probably all of thing that I done above is not special at all for you, yet that’s all things that make me feels beneficial for others like a hadeest “Khoirunnas anfa’ahum linnas”.
