KETUA Umum Pengurus Besar Nahdlatul Ulama (PBNU) K.H. Yahya Cholil\nStaquf, or Gus Yahya, has explained in detail the mechanism for\nproposing Ahlul Halli wal Aqdi (AHWA) candidates to participants of the\n35th NU Congress in Jombang, East Java, on Wednesday (26\/8).<\/p>\n
Gus Yahya stated that the Nahdlatul Ulama Regional Board (PWNU),\nBranch Board (PCNU), and Special Branch Board (PCINU) have the\nopportunity to prepare AHWA candidate nomination letters directly at the\nregistration area before completing the official registration\nprocess.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis registration area is already sterile. PWNU, PCNU, and PCINU can\nprepare AHWA candidate nomination letters here, but they must still be\nsigned by the Rais and Katib and stamped,\u201d said Gus Yahya at the\nregistration site.<\/p>\n
He emphasised that nomination letters that have met the\nadministrative requirements must be submitted to the committee in a\nsealed envelope. The letter must then be immediately placed into the\nballot box provided in the registration area.<\/p>\n
During a direct inspection of the registration process at the K.H.\nJamaluddin Ahmad Center Hall, Bahrul Ulum Islamic Boarding School, Gus\nYahya witnessed Rais Syuriyah PCNU Jombang K.H. Achmad Hasan become the\nfirst participant to submit an envelope containing an AHWA candidate\nnomination.<\/p>\n
In addition to monitoring the technical aspects of the AHWA election,\nGus Yahya, accompanied by PBNU Deputy Chairman Amin Said Husni, also\ncompleted participant registration and inspected several key locations\nfor the congress. He gave special instructions to the local committee\nand guest liaison team led by K.H. Abdurrozaq Sholeh (Gus Rozaq).<\/p>\n
\u201cAll of you represent not only PBNU, but the entire Nahdlatul Ulama\norganisation, and at the same time you represent Kiai Abdul Wahab\nChasbullah as the host of this Congress. Therefore, this service is\ntruly a service of extraordinary value,\u201d he told the committee.<\/p>\n
Gus Yahya also reminded all parties to maintain the organisation\u2019s\ndignity by emulating the values of NU\u2019s founders and the scholars of\nBahrul Ulum Tambakberas Islamic Boarding School. Quoting the teachings\nof Hadratussyekh K.H. Hasyim Asy\u2019ari, he stressed the importance of\nmaintaining the integrity of the organisation.<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause this is jam\u2019iyatu adlin wa aman wa ishlahin wa ihsan. This\nis an organisation that brings improvement. Therefore, there must not be\neven the slightest action that could potentially cause damage,\u201d he\nasserted.<\/p>\n
The registration process for participants of the 35th NU Congress was\ncentred at MTs Bahrul Ulum from 10.00 WIB.
