Competing Love With Ustadz
Fierce Competition

Pak Kiai and Bu Nyai went straight inside to rest.

Ustadz Andan sat down with Ning Faza with Ma'am Anna at Abi's command every time they were together.

"How's Ning Faza doing?" ask Ustadz Adnan to open the conversation as usual.

"Well, what about Ustadz?"

"I'm good too."

"How was yesterday the script?"

"Alhamdulillah, everything is done."

Ustadz Adnan nodded his head.

Then they went back to silence.

Ustadz Andan was confused as to what else to say, while Ning Faza instead kept thinking about Zayn.

"Don't make Ustadz Adnan like Nun Dead among the Idghom Bilaghunnah, Seen but considered nothing." The remark made Ning Faza, Ustadz Adnan and Mbak Anna turn to the door.

With full of charm Zayn sat among them.

Zayn, who has pure white skin with hazel-colored eyeballs and fine hairs on his face and other limbs, makes himself different from other students.

Ning Faza who was sitting right in front of him became nervous and turned his gaze to and fro.

"What are you trying to say Zayn?" tanya Ustadz Adnan's.

"I'm sorry Mr. Ustadz, It looks like Ning Faza is bored with your chatter just asking how it is, How the script is let alone just sitting still.

Did Ustadz not pay attention to Ning Faza, Even though Ning Faza was near Ustadz but his heart and mind were elsewhere?"

Instantly Ning Faza felt palpitating as well as unwell to Ustadz Adnan for Zayn's words.

Ustadz Adnan turned his head towards Ning Faza and watched his every move.

"Isn't that Ning Faza?" zayn asked confidently.

"Well!" Ning Faza was so shocked to hear his name coming out of Zayn's lips.

Zayn raises both eyebrows, He knows how to master the hearts of the girls He loves.

Ning Faza seemed to want to say something but his mouth could not open.

"Zayn take care of your attitude and keep your eyes on you!" ustadz Adnan.

"Congratulations to Ning Faza's graduation."

"Thank you." shrieked Ning Faza who continued to lower his gaze.

"Rethink your decision Ning, and one thing Ning Faza must remember, Although my attention does not look like alif lam shamsiah, my love for you is like aliflam Qomariah, it is clearly read." zayn said as he glanced at Ustadz Adnan and passed away.

Hearing that made Ning Faza's heart tremble.

Ning Faza could no longer shake his feelings for Zayn,

His heart was always blooming and happy every time he heard Zayn speak, This was very inversely proportional when He was close to Ustadz Adnan who tended to bore him.

"Is Dek Faza interested in Zayn?"

"Well!" Ning Faza gasped at the question from Ustadz Adnan.

"The prophet Joseph said in the word of God:

وَمَا أُبَرِّئُ نَفْسِي إِنَّ النَّفْسَ لَأَمَّارَةٌ بِالسُّوءِ إِلَّا مَا رَحِمَ رَبِّي إِنَّ رَبِّي غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ

And I am not (declaring) myself free (from iniquity), for in fact that lust always leads to evil, except (lust) which is given mercy by my Lord. Verily, my Lord is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (QS. Joseph [12]: 53)

Like the Prophet Yusuf who admitted that in his attraction to Siti Zulaikha there was an evil lust that encouraged him to commit obedience. What else are we just ordinary people.

Ning Faza was speechless trying to understand what Ustadz Andan was saying.

"KH.Afifuddin Muhajir explained that love is an act of the heart that cannot be punished, But if He is applied in an act, then the consequences of the law fall.

The Messenger of Allah ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ _DHigh Says:

وَاللِّسَانُ زِنَاهُ الْكَلَامُ

“While oral, the zina is with the word.” (CHR. Muslims no. 2658)

"Don't be attracted to him because of what he says, Because if love comes from God but at the same time distances us from God. Is it the wrong way to love her or is it the wrong way to love her?"

Ning Faza was stunned to hear Ustadz Adnan's words.

"Don't fall asleep to the misleading temptation of Satan, Assalamualaikum." Ustadz Andan got up and left Pak Kiai's house.

"Wa'alaikumsalam." - Ning Faza.

"Ning Faza, this is a very fierce competition" said Anna, who has since observed every word Zayn and Ustadz Andan.

Ning Faza took a deep breath, His heart was increasingly worried about deciding who to make a companion in his life.
