Brilio.net - Since 2019, Celine Evangelista has caused a stir among the public when she joined in breaking the fast during the month of Ramadan. Not only that, Stefan William's ex-wife also joined Ustaz Riza's study by appearing wearing Muslim clothes and a hijab. However, at that time, Celine denied that she had changed her religion.
But lately, Celine has been wearing hijab more often in every appearance. Like in Umi Pipik's upload, Celine is seen wearing hijab while posing with Shandy Purnamasari and Abidzar Al Ghifari.
The allegation that Celine has converted to Islam is increasingly widespread. Moreover, Celine's answer in Umi Pipik's comment column is very Islamic in tone.

"Masya Allah, thank you very much Umi, I feel calmer," wrote Celine, as reported by brilio.net on Friday (16/8).
Regarding the allegation that Celine converted, it was confirmed by Umi Pipik. The mother of Abidzar Al Ghifari stated that in fact the presenter and soap opera actress had long been a Muslim.
"Actually, it's been a long time since she (Celine) converted to Islam," said Pipik as quoted from YouTube STARPRO.
Umi Pipik also added that Celine Evangelista's decision to convert was already known by many parties. "We all know that she converted," she said.
Even though she has converted, Umi Pipik said that Celine did not immediately wear the hijab when doing activities. It was revealed that Celine's hijrah process was not instant and took time. She also explained that she was the one who accompanied Celine during the process of converting to Islam.

"If you wear the hijab, of course there is a process. People can't do it instantly, everything is done slowly. Everyone needs to learn, I am the one who accompanies other people's migration process," explained Umi Pipik again.
Despite being a convert, Celine continues to deepen the religious process slowly. It was added that the mother of 5 children often attends studies held by Umi Pipik regularly. She prayed that Celine would be consistent in studying Islam.
"He did try to continue to learn more about Islam. He joined in, wanted to continue to learn. Hopefully he will continue to be consistent, hopefully the process will go well, the enthusiasm for the process, especially since migrating is not an easy process," he explained.
"Of course there are tests that must be faced, but when the process is slow, God willing, it can be done," he continued.
