Using a qualitative approach, this research explores the ulama's perceptions of the role and contribution of alumni in society, as well as the challenges they face in developing their careers. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with experienced scholars in the area.The research results show that ulama have high hopes for the role of alumni in strengthening religious and social values in society.

However, a number of challenges were also identified, including limited access to educational resources, changes in educational and scientific paradigms, and increasingly fierce competition in the job market.
