Bekasi, 23 October 2025 – As part of efforts to strengthen religious activities and enhance the prosperity of the mosque within the school environment, the Management Board of Al Muhajirin Mosque (DKM) was officially established on Thursday, 23 October 2025.

Therefore, we as parents must be earnest in fulfilling our duty to educate our children,” said Ustadz Attabik.

By adhering to its guidance, children’s good character can be nurtured.
