Islam becomes one of the religions that is widely followed by society, especially in Indonesia. Islam has some symbols that show diversity quality, and actually these symbols should not be underestimated because it is highly revered.

2. Prophet Muhammad SAW, the Quran, and the Sabda

The Prophet Muhammad SAW and other prophets and apostles are symbols of religion. Therefore, a Muslim must glorify, honor, and respect. Therefore, the commemoration of the Prophet's maulid is one form of glorifying and honoring the Prophet Muhammad SAW.

Our Ulama, especially those in Nahdlatul Ulama, highly uphold the event because it glorifies the honor of the Prophet Muhammad SAW. Because the Prophet's Maulid is to glorify the Prophet Muhammad as a symbol of Islam.

The Kaaba and the Masjid al-Haram are religious symbols that need to be honored by all Muslims. Although the Kabah is built and composed of stones, a Muslim must glorify it because Allah SWT has also glorified the Kabah. Glorifying something because of Allah SWT is not shirk but is worth worship.

Ramadan is a religious symbol that must be glorified. Because the Prophet Muhammad SAW also glorified Ramadan and even welcomed its presence since the month of Rajab. It is good for someone to put up a banner that aims to remind other Muslims to prepare for the presence of Ramadan.

The Guardians or Indonesian known as Para Wali are religious symbols that should be revered. If the auliya have a place in a someone heart then it is a sign that the person is strong in their religion.
