May all the deeds of worship of the deceased be accepted by Allah SWT, his mistakes are forgiven, and the entire family left is patient and steadfast," said President Jokowi.
In his statement, President Jokowi recalled that 2 months ago he visited Buya Syafii in Sleman.
"Two months ago, I came to visit Buya Syafii at his residence in Sleman Regency, DI Yogyakarta, when he just got out of the hospital after several days of treatment. At that time, he was healthy and looked fit," said the President.
