JAKARTA - The lecturer Ustaz Yahya Waloni suddenly became busy talking after he confessed that he accidentally hit a dog.

The story about hitting the dog began when Ustaz Yahya Waloni was about to go to a lecture location around the border area between Riau and Jambi, precisely in Kemuning District.

Yahya, who was driving his vehicle, hit a dog which resulted in a limp.

"I also hit a dog, I don't know whose. He limped the dog's leg. I still brake the goat, but I saw a dog, unclean I shot the one in front", he said.

The confession was broadcast on the YouTube account of Hadits TV on Saturday 13 February. Netizen blasphemed Yahya's statement.

One of those who blasphemed namely, Deddy Corbuzier. Through his Twitter account, Deddy uploaded satirical comments.

"Forgot the name of the preacher who was proud to run into a dog ... OK, I just Google DOG, right ... He appears. Rolling on the floor laughing", wrote Deddy, quoted from Twitter @corbuzier, Tuesday, February 16.

Another public figure, Diaz Hendropriyono, joined the wave of criticism. Diaz alludes to the love between fellow beings that Yahya Waloni does not represent. "As AC/DC says, 'you are on the highway to hell'", wrote Diaz.

More broadly, many other publics also expressed their views. "So a dog that was hit or hit?", write @titiksabit account in Deddy Corbuzier upload.

The head of Animal Defender Indonesia, Doni Herdaru, said that dog saliva is unclean in Islam, but that does not mean that they can act cruelly to these animals.

"It should be remembered that in Islam dogs are unclean but there is no reason to be cruel to them", said Doni.

"In Islam, there are already good ways to deal with uncleanness if we are exposed. It does not mean that what is unclean must be eradicated and persecuted", he stressed.

Doni mentioned that all living things created by God certainly have benefits. So, there is no reason to hurt them.

"If you don't like it, there's no need to hurt. That's all. Of course, the Creator doesn't create anything in vain', he said.

Doni challenges Ustaz Yahya to collide with ideas. Because that is what is considered suitable as a form of criticism against Ustaz Yahya Waloni.

"Ideas versus ideas, writing versus writing, speech versus speech. At this point we will consider it", said Doni.

"I think at this point, this opinion or speech needs to be criticized and reminded", he continued

Currently, Doni is focusing on educating the public due to Yahya's comments. It is undeniable that Ustaz Yahya Waloni's statement had a big impact on society.

"So what we are doing, we are educating friends who have the potential to be diverted due to YW's ties, and monitoring developments", he said.

Furthermore, Doni suggested to Ustaz Yahya Waloni not to use negative narratives when giving speeches. Because there are still many things that can be conveyed and educated.

"Our advice is not to invite things that are not good. There are still many shady and comfortable things to talk about on the platform", he said.
