Telephone rewards to Gus Miftah, asking to cancel the recitation on the Pemalang page

SEMARANG, KOMPAS.com – The Governor of Central Java, Ganjar Pranowo, asked Muhammad Habiburrahman, alias Gus Miftah, to cancel his recitation at Pemalang Regency.

The reason is that there are fears that the recitation could unleash a crowd when the corona virus pandemic is still spreading.

Ganjar asked Gus Miftah to invite other preachers for virtual studies.

“I contacted him immediately. I asked him why his condition was still (Pandemic) so it was resolved immediately. He said yes and said that he had entered the closing prayer,” Ganjar said in his statement on Sunday (27 / 9/2020).

Ganjar also asked Gus Miftah to cancel another scheduled recitation.

“If possible, next, he said your name (You want read (studies) there in the event of circumcision, sorry (please) don’t continue. Because the crowd was incredibly busy. And I have the video. Gus Miftah said: ‘good sir gub. yes‘, “he said.

Not without reason, Ganjar dared to directly remind Gus Miftah. So far, they both have a good relationship.

Even Ganjar also frequently attended the recitation of Gus Miftah, including at Ponpes Ora Aji Yogyakarta.

After successfully persuading Gus Miftah to cancel the recitation schedule for the second session in Pemalang, Ganjar immediately contacted the Regent of Pemalang to verify the recitation venue.

After being visited, Ganjar said, the Pemalang regent coordinated with the family that invited Gus Miftah.

“After an approach was made, the family, who turned out to be circumcised, finally agreed to cancel the event,” he said.
