Muhammadiyah Empowers Converts in Mentawai through Small Business Initiatives

MUHAMMADIYAH.OR.ID, MENTAWAI – The Muhammadiyah Department of Community Da’wa (LDK) has launched the Mualaf Berdaya (Empowered Converts) program to help Muslim converts in the Mentawai Islands achieve economic independence. The initiative includes producing KripikMu (cassava chips) and processing salted fish, providing sustainable income opportunities for the community.

Supported by the Muhammadiyah Department of Charity Management (Lazismu), the program is part of the Mualaf Learning Center, which aims to improve the economic stability and well-being of converts in Mentawai. The local government has even recognized KripikMu and the salted fish products as signature items of the region, recommending them as official local delicacies.

LDK Secretary Suhardin highlighted the importance of combining economic empowerment with education to help converts build self-sufficiency.

“The Mualaf Learning Center is designed to support converts not just financially, but also through education, helping them grow and become independent,” he said during the program’s launch on Wednesday, March 12.

Program coordinator Kamarul Zaman emphasized the economic potential of the initiative, explaining that the converts are not only earning income but also strengthening their sense of community.

“This program helps converts become more active and self-reliant while also fostering stronger bonds among them,” he stated.

Meanwhile, Chairperson of the Muhammadiyah Regency Board of Mentawai Rudi stressed that the initiative is more than just an economic project. It reflects Muhammadiyah ongoing commitment to standing by and supporting converts.

“This is not just about providing financial opportunities, but about creating a support system that helps converts feel empowered and included,” he said.

The event also received support from the Mentawai Police Chief, who attended to encourage the converts. His presence highlighted the collaboration between religious organizations and law enforcement in building a safe and supportive environment for converts in the region.
