Getting to know Jama'ah Al Khidmah

A jama'ah of the majlis of dzikir, begun by Hadratusy Syaikh KH. Achmad Asrori Al Ishaqy r.a. in Surabaya. Its majlis are open to anyone who comes.

A short history

Begun at Kedinding Lor

Jama'ah Al Khidmah was begun by Hadratusy Syaikh KH. Achmad Asrori Al Ishaqy r.a. in 1987 at Jl. Kedinding Lor No. 99, Surabaya, where Pondok Pesantren Assalafi Al Fithrah stands today.

Al Khidmah means to serve. He chose the name because he did not want his jama'ah to carry a lofty name.

Open to everyone

Jama'ah Al Khidmah was declared in Semarang on 25 December 2005 as an association that is open, democratic, independent, and professional, under no political party.

Its majlis are open to anyone from any group: to remember Allah and send salawat, praying for parents, elders, and kin, and for the safety of society and the nation.
