“We are grateful to the University of Sultan Zainal Abidin for opening the door for collaboration this time, starting with an International Seminar on Maqasid Syariah, and later we will continue with various activities, such as student exchange, student mobility or transfer credit, join research projects, and others,” explained the Rector of UIN Antasari Prof. Dr. H. Mujiburrahman, MA from Banjarmasin.
This signing was the opening activity for the 7th Maqasid Syariah International Seminar, which was also attended by 4 lecturers of UIN Antasari. They are Prof. Dr. Hj. Masyithah Umar, M. Hum.

The materials from UIN Antasari received a warm welcome from UniSZA, which even the theme from the Rector Prof. Dr. H. Mujiburrahman, MA, is discussed that it will be developed for a follow-up seminar, because it raises the theme of nationality.
