Early life

Wijayanto attended from elementary to high school in Surakarta.

Career

Wijayanto is known as a prominent da'i in Indonesia, characterized by comical and entertaining preaching style. He is famous for his lectures with witty humor and critical comedy reflecting the reality and this is anticipated by his audiences. However, there are critics as well against his way of preaching and pop lectures on TV. Some call him "ustad artist" due to him utilizing his title as ustad to speak and look charming.

In addition to lectures and televangelism, Wijayanto also authors written works. One of his releases is titled Jodohku, Maunya Kamu (lit: I want you as my love of my life, until the end). The book is aimed at addressing the family affairs and social issues, utilizing his knowledge and degree in sociology, and aimed at combining the science of sociology and Islamic knowledge as a preacher in order to contribute to solving the problem.
