BRIEF HISTORY OF PII
Indonesian Moslem Students Association (PII) was established in the struggle city of Yogyakarta on May 4, 1947. The founding fathers were young intellectuals on the time, namely Yoesdi Ghozali, Anton Timur Djaelani, Amien Syahri, and Ibrahim Zarkasyi.
One factor motivated the establishment of PII was the dualism of education system for Moslems in Indonesia as a heritage from Netherlands colonizer, pesantren (Islamic Boarding School) and ordinary school that each of them has different education system. Pesantren has eschatological orientation mean while ordinary school has worldly orientation. Consequently, Moslem students divided into two groups and against each other. Students from pesantren (santri) claimed ordinary school as unbelief education system given by Netherlands colonizer and judged the students as unbelief students. On another position, students from ordinary schools claimed the pesantren as traditional and conservative, the santri were named conservative santri.
At the moment, there was a students organization, Ikatan Pelajar Indonesia / Indonesian Students Association (IPI). However, the organization could not accommodate santri's aspiration. Reflecting the reality, when Yoesdhi Ghozali was being i'tikaf (keep silent and pray in mosque) at a mosque in Yogyakarta on February 25, 1947 got inspiration to establish an organization that can accommodate Moslem aspiration (both from pesantren and ordinary school). The idea was shared in SMP N 2 (State Secondary School) Secodiningrat, Yogyakarta. His friends attended the meeting were Anton Timur Djaelani, Amien Syahri, and Ibrahim Zarkasyi and all audience agreed to established an organization form Moslem students.
The agreement, then presented on the Congress of Indonesian Moslem Youth Movement (Gerakan Pemuda Islam Indonesia/GPII) on March 30 - April 1, 1947. Most of the audience agreed the idea, then the congress decreed to unite Students Division of GPII into Indonesian Moslem Students Association (PII). The participants of congress also were demanded to ease the establishment of PII around Indonesia.
As a follow up of the congress decree, a meeting was conducted at GPII office on Jalan Margomulyo 8 Yogyakarta on May 4, 1947. The meeting was attended by Yoesdi Ghozali, Anton Timur Djaelani, and Amien Syahri represented Students Division of GPII, Ibrahim Zarkasyi and Yahya Ubeid represented Surakarta Moslem Students Union (PPIS), Multazam and Shawabi represented Course Union of Islamic Secondary Schools (PERKISEM) Surakarta, and Dida Gursida and Supono NA represented Indonesian Moslem Students Organization of Yogyakarta. The meeting, led by Yoesdi Ghozali decreed to established an organization named Pelajar Islam Indonesia / Indonesian Moslem Students Association (PII) at 10.00 A.M. on May 4, 1947.
In order to commemorate the moment of establishment of PII, every May 4 was celebrated as The Awakening Day of PII. It is supposed to be awakening moment from the accumulated ideas.
