One of these villages is Kutowinangun, consisting of seven hamlets or villages. One of these villages is called Pancuran, which is a unique village, ‘different from the others’, with exclusive citizens, and conflicting ‘dual personalities. On the one hand, they have a very strong sense of togetherness, artistic spirit, harmony, unity, solidarity, compassion, and brotherhood. On the other hand, they tend to fight with ‘gangsters’, cause trouble, commit crimes, and play gambling. Therefore, it led to a bad image for its residents. then a negative stigma emerged, that Pancuran as a Kampung ‘Preman’, which is embedded until now. But there is a distinctive aspect of Pancuran village that remains unexposed to the public, i.e. the existence of an Islamic Education Institution in the centre of the village. The history of the establishment of the Pancuran Islamic Education Institute, began in 1988. As the head of the Takmir of Al-Muttaqin mosque in Pancuran, KH Zahroni received waqf from Mrs Muslimah, in a land and house of 199 m2, located on Jl. Talang Tirto 606, Pancuran village. The waqf pledge from Mrs Muslimah (Alwaqif), was intended to serve as a place of Islamic education. The institution was then realized and firmly established on 18 June 1988.
