Students will go directly to the community or related institutions to observe, analyze, and participate in activities related to the science of Al-Quran and tafsir. In the opening speech session, the Head of IAT Study Program, Dr. H. Endang Saeful Anwar, Lc., M.A., conveyed several important points of the purpose and objectives of the PPL. “First, that PPL is intended to implement what has been learned in the classroom, practiced in the context of developing the profile of the department, namely to become competent beginner mufasirs and conduct research in the field of Qur'anic Science and Interpretation professionally,” Endang said. Therefore, the output of this PPL activity is that students make individual reports related to the implementation of activities and produce ISBN books in groups and they will be distributed to 10 areas in Serang Regency, ”added the Head of IAT Study Program.
Dr. Mohamad Hudaeri, M.Ag. as the Dean of the Faculty of Ushuluddin and Adab in his speech said that the theme carried out in this year's PPL is very interesting, namely increasing literacy and digitalization of the Qur'an in the midst of society. “This PPL is an important moment for students to not only interact directly with the community through pesantren, but also to use digital media as a means of spreading Qur'anic values that are relevant to the times,” he said. In the future, it is hoped that PPL can target groups and communities that are not widely touched such as the Banten muallaf bina, the disabled community and the punk community. “They need our touch, especially how they can learn the Qur'an, so these students can be optimized in learning the Qur'an to them,” added the Dean. “One thing that students need to remember when going into the community is to maintain the attitude and good name of the alma mater of the Faculty of Ushuluddin and Adab UIN SMH Banten, especially the good name of the Qur'anic Science and Interpretation Study Program which must be reflected in appearance, speech and behavior during the PPL,” concluded the Dean to end his remarks while releasing the PPL implementation of the IAT Study Program.
