CIPUTAT, FAH Online News – The Faculty of Adab and Humanities (FAH) of UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta successfully held the 140th Judiciary and Graduation Send-Off Ceremony on Wednesday (20/5/2026) at the FAH Conference Room. This academic event was attended directly by the faculty leadership, including the Dean, Ade Abdul Hak, Vice Dean for Academic Affairs Ida Farida, Vice Dean for General Administration Siti Amsariah, Vice Dean for Student Affairs Usep Abdul Matin, Head of Administration Iwan Kurniawan, S.Pd., M.Si., Head of the Arabic Language and Literature Master’s Program Dr. M. Adib Misbachul Islam, M.Hum., as well as undergraduate (S1) and postgraduate (S2) graduation candidates.
The conferment procession was led directly by the Dean of FAH through the reading of the official graduation decree, formally granting bachelor’s degrees to the judiciary participants. The agenda then continued with the reading of Dean’s Decree Number 31 of 2026 concerning the determination of outstanding graduates by Ida Farida. In this 140th period, the title of Best Graduate at the Faculty Level, as well as Best Graduate of the Arabic Language and Literature Study Program (BSA), was awarded to Mafatihatul Maghfirah. She achieved an outstanding academic record with a Grade Point Average (GPA) of 3.96 and earned the distinction of Cum Laude.
Representing the graduates, Mafatihatul Maghfirah expressed her gratitude and sincere appreciation to the entire academic community for their guidance throughout her studies. She concluded her speech with a lighthearted rhyme:
"Studying nahwu until morning light, accompanied by countless cups of coffee at night. Today we graduate with hearts full of pride, tomorrow may Master’s studies be facilitated for us to stride."
Her remarks were warmly welcomed with enthusiastic applause from the audience. Through her poetic message, she conveyed the hope that outstanding graduates would continue to receive support from the faculty and be facilitated in pursuing postgraduate (Master’s) education in the future.
In his remarks, the Dean of FAH, Ade Abdul Hak, shared advice regarding the realities of life after graduation.
"This degree is not the final destination; it is the gateway to where you will truly begin experiencing real life and real challenges. During your semesters, you attempted to solve problems with theories. However, after this, you will face real-life problems where those theories may not always provide the solutions," he emphasized before the graduates.
Through this judiciary moment, the Dean also strongly emphasized the urgency of maintaining ethics in cyberspace for today’s digital generation. He encouraged the graduates to be wise in managing their digital footprints and to utilize social media as a positive means of personal branding to support their future professional careers. The event concluded with the presentation of souvenirs to the outstanding graduates, accompanied by the hope that this harmony of academic achievement would produce humanities scholars who are not only intellectually capable, but also resilient and highly competitive.
