MUI Investigate Recitation At Meranti Riau Halalkan Seks Without Marriage

JAKARTA - The Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) of Meranti Islands Regency, Riau Province is investigating allegations of deviant or heretical teachings committed by a recitation group led by HA, which had shocked the public.

Deputy Chairperson of the Meranti Islands MUI Ustad Asep Darul Tahkik said his party had formed a joint team from the MUI of West Rangsang Regency and District to investigate further the truth of the information conveyed by the community. "We have prepared a joint team to go into the field. They will later learn more about the truth taught in the recitation. There are also companions from Intel Polres and TNI for the safety of all," he said in South Panjang, Riau Islands, Wednesday, July 24, which was confiscated by Antara. He revealed, in the first meeting with the person concerned, they believed there was no problem with his teachings. However, the sub-district and Polsek still felt awkward with the statement made by the recitation group.

"The sub-district head and the police still feel that there are irregularities in the group's expression. Therefore, we will present other parties to collect sufficient evidence. So, now the problem is not clear," he said. For this reason, he appealed to the public not to judge the person concerned, because there is no evidence and requested to maintain calm.

"We urge the public not to take justice into their own hands. Because, at this time there is no clear evidence from the person concerned to do the teaching. Please calm down, let us investigate first," said Asep.

Previously, the community was shocked by the activities of the HA-led recitation group at RT 09 Dusun Kuala Mekar which was suspected of having deviated from the teachings of Islam. The information was based on Jo, a resident of Mekar Baru Village, West Rangsang District, Meranti Islands Regency. The deviation in the recitation content shows that having sex can erase sins. Then, the person concerned (HA) can see heaven from behind his house. In addition, the congregation must have sharp weapons to prepare for the end of the day and each of his followers may also have sex without husband and wife ties.
