MUHAMMADIYAH.OR.ID, MEDAN – Chairperson of Muhammadiyah Central Board (PP Muhammadiyah), dr. Agus Taufiqurrahman, urged medical students to reflect deeply on the purpose of their profession.
The Chairperson of Muhammadiyah delivered the message during a public lecture at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Science of the Muhammadiyah University of North Sumatra (FKIK UMSU).
dr. Agus described studying medicine at a Muhammadiyah or ‘Aisyiyah university as a rare opportunity that deserves gratitude. However, he stressed that the most decisive phase of a doctor’s journey begins after leaving campus.
“What matters most is not the years spent studying, but the intention that follows graduation,” he said. “After becoming a doctor, what are you actually seeking?”
The rector of the university, Prof. Agussani, echoed these remarks. He said the institution is committed to developing what he described as Islamic medicine. UMSU attempts to combine scientific rigor with spiritual and ethical grounding.
The lecture took place at the university auditorium in central Medan. Senior administrators, including the vice rector and faculty leaders, were also in attendance. (Bintang Adrian)
