Tokoh Indonesia lain yang berpengaruh adalah Din Syamsuddin (41) dan Habib Luthfi bin Yahya (45).

Posisi Ketum PBNU Kiai Said Aqil, dan Presiden Jokowi, lebih tinggi dibanding beberapa presiden di negara muslim seperti Presiden Mesir Abdul Fatah Al-Sisi yang berada di urutan 21, Sultan Muhammadu Sa’adu Abubakar III, Nigeria (Sultan of Sokoto) (21), Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad (28), President Mahmoud Abbas.
