On May 30, 2024, two global faith leaders – Andrea Muñoz Spannaus, second counselor of the Young Women General Presidency for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and Prof. Dr. KH. Nasaruddin Umar – convened at the Istiqlal Mosque in Jakarta, Indonesia to discuss and promote interreligious understanding.

Dr. Umar, the Grand Imam of the mosque, emphasized the universality of humanity, stating, “Humanity is only one; there is no color…We are very active meeting together with our neighbors, not only from Catholic and Protestant, but also from the Hindus and also Buddhists... We invite them to come here. For me, this mosque not only for Muslim people. Everybody can access Istiqlal Mosque, because this is the big host for peace and the big host for humanity.”
