13 Portraits of the sacred moment of Deddy Corbuzier's creed, legally converting to Islam

"I got the right guidance from Gus Miftah," said Deddy Corbuzier after giving his shahada Nur Luthfiana Hardian

Deddy Corbuzier is finally officially Muslim. The creed ritual carried out by Deddy was guided directly by Gus Miftah, one of the young clerics of Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) Jogja at the Al Mbejaji Mosque, Ora Aji Yogyakarta Islamic Boarding School, owned by Gus Miftah himself.

Deddy performed his shahada at around 12.35 WIB. Before performing the shahada on the pulpit, Gus Miftah invited Deddy to hug him first.

According to brilio.net's observations, at the location attended by hundreds of congregants, Deddy himself came wearing a black suit and glasses, accompanied by his girlfriend, Sabrina Chairunnisa, who was wearing all white. After entering the mosque, Deddy immediately sat face to face with Gus Miftah.

Deddy's creed had to be repeated. Because there was a cell phone (HP) ringing from one of the people present in the mosque. Gus Miftah also asked all the congregation present to turn off the sound on their cellphones. The second creed procession finally went smoothly. Deddy smoothly recited the shahada calmly and confidently.

"Asyhadu alla ilaaha illallah wa asyhadu anna Muhammadar Rasulullah. I testify truly that there is no God but Allah and I testify profusely that the Prophet Muhammad was the messenger of Allah," said Gus Miftah, who was followed firmly by Deddy Corbuzier.

"Thank God the sacred procession has finished," said Gus Miftah after leading Deddy to recite two sentences of the shahada.

According to Deddy, he chose the ritual in Yogyakarta because his 'teacher', none other than Gus Miftah, was actually in Jogja. He actually didn't want to bother Gus Miftah if he had to ask him to fly to Jakarta.

"Actually, it's been almost 2 years (I wanted to convert to Islam). Yes, since I met him (Gus Miftah). I met someone who was nice to dialogue with. Slowly I started to feel, 'Oh, this is beautiful...' . I got the right guidance. from Gus Miftah," said Deddy when met by media crew after praying.
