Pengajian merupakan salah satu sarana dakwah dalam Islam yang paling efektif dalam menguatkan pondasi keagaaman umat muslim. Melalui aktivitas ini, masyarakat akan terfasilitasi dalam melakukan pendalamaan terhadap materi-materi keislaman. Selain itu, ini juga menjadi wadah bagi jamaah untuk saling bersilaturahmi. Hanya saja dalam beberapa tahun terakhir ini, animo masyarakat untuk mengikuti pengajian mengalami penurunan. Hal ini juga terjadi di Desa Sumbersari, Kecamatan Ciparay, Kabupaten Bandung dimana jumlah jamaah dari waktu ke waktu mengalami penurunan secara kuantitas. Berangkat dari fenomena tersebut, Program Studi Pendidikan Agama Islam (PAI) Sekolah Tinggi Agama Islam Muhammadiyah (STAIM) Bandung bekerjasama dengan Pimpinan Ranting (PRM) Muhammadiyah Sumbersari melakukan beberapa strategi untuk meningkatkan kuantitas dan kualitas pengajian. Strategi tersebut diimplementasikan dalam bentuk inovasi penyelenggaraan pengajian melalui metode ceramah sekaligus dikombinasikan dengan on the spot training yaitu melakukan beberapa program bimbingan dan pendampingan kepada masyarakat setempat. Selain itu, salah satu bentuk inovasi pengajian yang digagas oleh STAIM Bandung dan PRM Sumbersari adalah adanya program Subhad (Subuh Ahad), yaitu program ngariung atau berkumpul dengan seluruh jamaah untuk ngopi bersama setelah pengajian di hari Ahad subuh secara gratis. Hasilnya adalah animo masyarakat mengikuti pengajian semakin meningkat dan jalinan tali silaturhmi antar sesama jamaah semakin kuat.
