The Story Of Ustaz Yahya Waloni's Repentance In Prison: The One Who Brings Christian Food, Who Washes My Clothes

JAKARTA - Ustaz Yahya Waloni was outspoken when he appeared as a guest speaker on Deddy Corbuzier's podcast which was uploaded on Wednesday, February 15. The speaker who is known to be 'hard' admitted that he had repented while serving his sentence in prison.

Ustaz Yahya Waloni was previously involved in hate speech, blasphemy, and cases of expressing feelings of hostility and contempt for people's groups related to SARA in one of his lecture sessions. After undergoing a long trial process, Yahya Waloni was sentenced to 5 months in prison. On January 31, 2022, he was finally released.

In front of Deddy, Yahya Waloni admitted that he contemplated a lot, reflecting on his past life. The prison environment with various backgrounds of life, religion and ethnicity made Yahya Waloni aware.

"I was in prison changing my mindset without being forced by anyone. I got a new inspiration in prison. How did I not realize, I live in prison, those who come to me bring Christian food, those who make clothes, wash my clothes, I'm Eastern We talk about the trial," Yahya Waloni explained on the podcast reported by VOI, Wednesday, February 16.

For Yahya Waloni, life in prison is like a miniature of Indonesia with a variety of backgrounds. This is an excellent environment for changing life behaviors.

He is aware that every other religious ritual is sacred and sacred, it should not be used as a joke or joke. Moreover, Yahya Waloni's extended family in Manado is still Christian.

"I have to take care of it," said Yahya Waloni.

After he is released from prison, Yahya Waloni will continue his lecture activities to the public so as not to be contaminated with various existing political dynamics.

"Either the government builds the city, Grandpa, where it's up to. We can protest, it's okay, we protest maybe what is the name, the protest method can be polite and ethical," he explained.

"You can't play against each other or be ugly, right?" asked Deddy.

"Ouch, stop! I stopped it," said Yahya.
