Question:
Assalammu’alaykum wr wb,
Destur madad ya Mawlana Shaykh Nazim Haqqani, Madad ya Mawlana Shaykh Hisyam,
My name is [private]. I am a student on Senior High School in Indonesia. I am preparing for SNMPTN, a national exam for entering the National University in Indonesia. I’m interested at Electrical, Computer Engineering, Fine arts, visual design. I’m still confused to choose which one, and in which university. I’d like to choose Faculties of Fine Art & Design in ITB, Bandung. My mother wants me to choose Electrical Engineering in UGM, Yogyakarta. In SNMPTN, we can choose 2 universities/2 fields of study in the same university.
Ya Sayyidi, what field of study I have to choose and which university do you prefer? May I ask you, Ya Mawlana, for your prayer, and what amalan and sunna I have to do? Thank you for your answer ya Sayyidi.
Wassalaamu’alaykum wr wb.
Answer:
Alaykum Salam,
Both choices are good, but in Bandung there is a stronger spiritual connection for you in sha Allah.
