JAKARTA - Ridho Rhoma is currently in police custody after being arrested with two of his male friends at an apartment in South Jakarta, Thursday, February 4. As a father, Rhoma Irama admitted that he was sad because he had to fast without his beloved son.

"Our Ramadan is tested to be able to conquer our passions, be patient, sincere, accept this test from Allah. The essence of Ramadan is that Ridho's problem is tested, Masya Allah. Yes, I asked to be patient earlier, hopefully there will be many rewards," said Rhoma Irama, quoted from Cumicumi YouTube channel, Tuesday, April 27.

Rhoma admitted that he was sad when he remembered that Ridho was in prison. Even so, Rhoma still tried to be kind to God.

"Sad, really sad. But yes, I still think of Allah. Once a person is tested, then people are close to Allah. Tested with prison, my husband is closer to Allah. Testing is the motive," he explained.

Despite making a second mistake, Rhoma Irama admitted that he was never absent from praying for Ridho.

"What is certain, in every last prostration I always pray. I always pray for my family, my wife, my children, I always pray to be pious children," he said.

Rhoma Irama said that currently Ridho's condition is healthy. He endured homesickness because he could not communicate directly with his son. "He can not hold the cellphone yet, longing for the name of the child," said Rhoma Irama.
