Go International, UIN Malang Prepares Al-Quran Laboratory

TIMESINDONESIA, MALANG – The Rector of UIN Malang, Prof Dr Abdul Haris, revealed his big idea to make UIN Malang (UIN Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang) go international (world-class university). One of the strategies is to build Laboratorium Alquran dan Tafsir (Alquran Laboratory and Quran Interpretation).

As usual, the precious idea from Prof Haris is delivered in form of a poem sent to TIMES Indonesia. “We are planning to build Al-Quran Laboratory and Quran Interpretation. According to the plan, it will be built on this semester,” said Prof Haris to this online media that has been verified by the Press Council.

According to Haris, in this Al-Quran Laboratory the Al-Quran commentators of UIN Malang will do the Quran interpretation together, from Surah Al-Fatiha to the end of the surah

“This could be a creation from the scholars and the Quran commentators of UIN Malang. It is the Quran interpretation with different method, not only understanding the meanings, but also creating the strategy to apply it in the real world,” explained Haris.

 “What kind of implementation? Haris explained that there would be a scheme of commentary inside the laboratory. “The point is to find the meanings behind the texts by using science, linguistic approaches, and so on,” he said.

Here is the complete opinion from the rector:
