MUI to Subur: Stop Blaspheming or Face Police
Jakarta Globe | April 22, 2013
Besides having more spouses than is allowed by Islam, the MUI claimed that Subur — who is known to his disciples as Eyang — also practiced sorcery and black magic.
"For this reason, the MUI wants Subur to repent and return to a straight path," Ma'ruf Amin, the chairman of the MUI, said on Monday as quoted by state-run news agency Antara.
The edict was issued after the conclusion of an MUI investigation that began April 8, 2013. The council gathered that Subur had digressed from mainstream Islamic teachings by having eight wives, when the religion only allows for a man to have four.
Though he has not officially tainted the religion, the MUI believes that Subur violated Islamic principles and has asked him to divorce four of his spouses and stop working as a shaman and a clairvoyant.
"If he refuses to repent, the MUI will report his actions to the police since we don't have any authority to punish him," Ma'ruf said.
He went on to say that if Subur admitted his wrongdoings, he would have to issue a statement.
Ma'ruf called on all of Subur's disciples to stop following him, though he warned people — especially Muslims — to not be provoked by Subur's actions and use the situation as an excuse to wage violence.
Meanwhile, the chief of the Islamic Reform Movement (Garis) expressed disappointment with the council's decision.
"We're not satisfied with the decision of the MUI. They should have come out said that Subur is a heretic and taken swift action on him and his followers," Adang Nurmansyah, the head of the organization, said on Monday as quoted by Antara.
He also suggested that Subur should be forced to divorce four of his spouses in a specific amount of time.
Subur gained notoriety in the media after four of his followers, including former child singer Adi Bing Slamet, lashed out at him via social media and accused him of being a heretic.
Adi regularly went to Subur's house with many others. However, he soon realized that the supposed spiritual guru was extorting his followers by asking them to take part in bogus rituals such as drinking salt-water and coffee without sugar.
Ramdan Alamsyah, Subur's attorney, commented that his client never claimed to be a shaman or a clairvoyant.
"The MUI should bring people closer to heaven, not farther away," he said. "Contrary to the reality, the MUI has asked my client to admit to mistakes that he has never made."
