Muhammadiyah Australia College: Bridging Indonesian Cultures, Fostering Islamic Understanding

MUHAMMADIYAH.OR.IR, AUSTRALIA — Standing as a symbol of cultural rapprochement, Muhammadiyah Australia College (MAC) is paving the way for deeper understanding and collaboration between Indonesia and Australia. Its presence not only offers a unique educational landscape but also sheds light on a progressive and nuanced interpretation of Islam, resonating with the multicultural fabric of Australian society.

The Indonesian Embassy in Canberra has lauded the efforts of Muhammadiyah special branches in Australia, acknowledging their crucial role in strengthening bilateral ties. Mukhamad Najib, the Education and Culture Attaché, highlighted the potential of these institutions as bridges between communities.

“Muhammadiyah special branches can truly play a pivotal role in fostering closer Indonesia-Australia relations,” Najib remarked, emphasizing the school’s ability to transcend boundaries and build genuine connections.

Beyond fostering closer relations, MAC serves as a platform to showcase a distinct vision of Islam, one that aligns with the diverse and inclusive nature of Australian society. Its progressive approach resonates with Australians, offering a refreshing perspective on the faith.

“The Islamic values championed by Muhammadiyah – moderation, inclusivity, and progress – find natural resonance in a multicultural society like Australia,” Najib explained. “MAC acts as a conduit for conveying this message and dispelling any misconceptions about Islam.”

Moreover, the college serves as a gateway for Australians to gain a deeper understanding of Indonesian culture and society. By integrating elements of both cultures, MAC fosters mutual respect and appreciation, paving the way for future collaborations and partnerships.

“With Indonesia being close geographically, yet culturally distant for many Australians, MAC presents a unique opportunity to bridge this gap,” Najib stated. “Through education and cultural exchange, the college can build lasting connections and promote harmonious coexistence.”

Looking ahead, the hope is that Muhammadiyah’s presence in Australia will extend beyond MAC. Mukhamad Najib expressed his desire to see Muhammadiyah’s network of institutions (AUM), establishing a stronger foothold in the country.

“This would allow Muhammadiyah to offer its unique brand of support and social work to the Australian community, further strengthening the bonds between our nations,” Najib envisioned.

Besides, Hamim Jufri, Chair of the Muhammadiyah Special Branch of Australia (PCIM), sees MAC in Melbourne as an act of cultural diplomacy, fostering trust between Australians and Indonesians.

“MAC,” he declares, “is a testament to our ability to manage a progressive, modern Islamic education within Australian standards, showcasing our courage and expertise.”

By bridging cultural divides and promoting an inclusive vision of Islam, Muhammadiyah Australia College stands as a beacon of hope for stronger Indonesia-Australia ties. Its presence not only benefits both communities but also contributes to a more nuanced and tolerant global landscape.
