Jakarta, Insertlive –
Stevie Agnecya, Samuel Rizal’s ex-wife, is in the spotlight after uploading a video of her journey to becoming a Muslim.
It is known that Stevie has converted to a Muslim in 2017.
The news was acknowledged by her husband Anggi.
Anggi said that Stevie had become a convert before they got married.
“Yes, Alhamdulillah, Stevie has fulfilled his obligations as a good Muslim. And Stevie has indeed converted to Islam before we got married,” Anggi said on Tuesday, September 28, 2021.
The news of Stevie Agnecya’s convert to Islam in 2021 began with his upload showing himself wearing a mukena after praying together with his small family.
Most recently, Stevie shared his spiritual journey to become a convert through his Instagram page.
“I used to be different from my husband. There was never any compulsion for the two of us to respect each other even though at that time we were different,” wrote Stevie Agnecya.
He admitted that converting to Islam was a form of his own choice.
Of course, her decision to change her belief has brought pros and cons to blasphemy among the public, but the mother of three is grateful because her family is willing to accept it.
“Thank God, I finally chose to convert to Islam because of my own heart’s choice. There were many who were blasphemous, pros and cons, but most importantly my family accepted my choice,” he said.
Five years as a convert, Stevie felt his life became happier and calmer.
“But the more I come here, the more calm and happy I am because of Allah,” he concluded.
The post was heavily commented on by netizens, including Baim Wong, who prayed for Stevie.
“Nice to see a real priest.. may you always be happy,“commented Baim Wong.
