Deviant or Not?

THE Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) has declared the Gerakan Fajar Nusantara (Gafatar) organization to be one that has 'strayed from the right path'. The Council considers the movement initiated by Ahmad Musadeq to have deviated from Islam because its teachings combine elements of Islam, Christianity and Judaism and interprets the Quran differently.

Gafatar followers also believe a man named Ahmad Musadeq to be the last prophet. It seems the Council's position has influenced the perception of last week's Tempo poll respondents. Of 1,241 respondents, 65 percent agreed that Gafatar should be considered deviant.
