"Tifatul then told the crowd that Allah will forgive all sinners, as long as they are willing to repent".

SORRY that theory is ambiguous. Repent once a year at Idul Fitr?? However, it seems that corruption is on the rise each year...

When Communication and Information Technology Minister Tifatul Sembiring delivered the Idul Fitri sermon at the Mobile Brigade (Brimob) headquarters in Depok on Wednesday, he took the opportunity to share a few words of wisdom to Muhammad Nazaruddin.

“Oh Nazaruddin, Allah knows everything. Don't ever think that Allah does not know when we've done something,” Tifatul said during his sermon, inviting loud reactions from the attendees.

But Tifatul told the crowd that no matter how big one man's sin is, Allah will forgive.

Nazaruddin is allegedly implicated in at least 31 corruption cases concerning 31 government projects across various ministries worth a total of Rp 6.04 trillion ($707 million).

“Even if our sin is as big as a mountain, Allah will forgive,” said the minister, who was previously the president of the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS), the country's largest Islamic political party.

Tifatul then told the crowd that Allah will forgive all sinners, as long as they are willing to repent.

The minister then reminded the crowd never to gain wealth from haram, or forbidden, ways. “Halal wealth will never be taken away,” he said.
