Meanwhile, the cassava cheese boss, Hardadi, urged the Inmates not to despair and to maintain their enthusiasm, emphasizing that a good life brings blessings.
Ustadz Jay Nurjaman, during his religious discourse, reminded the Inmates that Rutan Salatiga is not a place of evil but an opportunity provided by Allah for repentance and transformation towards a righteous path.
Kang Jay expressed that everyone has the right to receive grace and follow the path of Allah, leading to eventual entry into paradise. In a friendly interaction between the staff and Inmates, Kang Jay encouraged dialogue to understand the aspirations of the Inmates, emphasizing that Allah does not judge based on one’s status but on their piety.
Prior to this event, Rutan Salatiga had implemented various rehabilitation programs, including today’s religious education session, aiming to equip the Inmates with religious knowledge and pave the way for them to become better individuals.
