"Why? Who's the same?" Canda was surprised to see her foster children immediately embrace her with tears.
"That, Biyung. Jasmine's bleeding." Givan sat on the edge of the bed, watching his foster son hugging his wife.
"Huh? What's?" Canda immediately panicked, directly framing Jasmine's face.
"Dad said it wasn't right. Half the story." Jasmine cried while talking.
Givan chuckles little to see his foster son sewot. "Yes Jasmine stories herself dong. Let Biyung give me some advice." Givan was sure his wife had the best advice, like the previous advice three years ago that Canda had given to his eldest son with another woman.
"Say Dad I'm menstruating, Biyung. Can I go to Biyung, so Biyung can be sure? I'm scared, Biyung." Jasmine's cry increasingly became in the arms of her foster mother.
"Ohh.... No need, Honey. Dengerin Biyung said yes?" Canda wiped away the tears of his foster children. He did not pay attention to his unmade lipstick.
Jasmine nodded. "When have I ever heard Biyung talk?" Jasmine already felt full of respect for her parents.
"Yes, Biyung believes. Just, Jasmine remembered Biyung's message this time." Canda reached out her hand to pick up the dried tissue, which was on her dressing table. Then, he picked it up and swept it gently under Jasmine's nose. There's water in there.
"Yes, Biyung." Jasmine was so focused on her foster mother.
It was easy to make Jasmine forget her tears, which was only by inviting Jasmine to dialogue. The attention of the boy has been diverted.
"Removing blood from k*******Jasmine, that's called menstruation or menstruation. If the occurrence is above nine tofu, or right at the age of nine years, it is called menstruation. But, if the exit is under nine years. That is, blood disease. In Islam, in Surah Al-Baqarah verse 222 in the Qur'an, menstruation is described as a type of feces. This verse also explains God's command to menstruating women to purify themselves during menstruation and forbids men to get closer during menstruation."
Givan was concerned that his wife had no control in explaining the matter.
"Muslim women who are menstruating are also prohibited to pray before taking a mandatory bath. It is based on the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad Shallahu Alaihi Wa 'sallam, when your period comes, leave the prayer and if it has passed, take a shower then pray. This is from the hadith of Bukhari. So, Jasmine had an obligation to take a mandatory bath. Jasmine has heard of it, right? Biyung taught you that, didn't he?" Canda awaits a response from his foster children.
Givan felt that sometimes his wife was smart. But, if it has been field practice. Canda is still a Canda who is only good at theory according to Givan.
"Yes, but I forgot Biyung. There's the note, "Jasmine replied later.
"Look, the intention of bathing is mandatory after that period. Nawaitul ghusla liraf'i hadatsil haidil lillahi Ta'aala. That is, I intend to take a bath to purify the great hadas of menstruation because of Allah Ta'ala. Later Biyung taught his procedures in the bathroom. Because this big bath has its own rules, one of them is ablution. Biyung anyway use that way, so Biyung cebok first, keep new ablution. After ablution, Biyung read the intention of taking a big shower while taking a shower. Dipper wear time, yes squat continues to guyur dippernya in the squat position. So, the water splashed from the mandatory bath Biyung is no longer into the water storage tub." Simple understanding is said slowly by Canda.
"Yes, Honey. Women who are baligh then called mukalaf, or people who are burdened. That is, the woman has an obligation to perform prayers, fasting, zakat, and Hajj if able. During menstruation, Muslim women are not allowed or forbidden to do things such as, pray, tawaf, hold and touch the mushaf or call it the Qur'an and Tafsir. You must not remain silent in a mosque, read the Qur'an, fast, talaq or divorce. Walking in the mosque should also not be, it is feared menstrual blood will drip to the floor. Finally, this prohibition applies when Jasmine already has a husband, namely Jasmine's husband will be prohibited from approaching Jasmine or touching Jasmine. The last one, Biyung later told me that Jasmine is in High School?" Canda smiled kindly, with a nod of understanding that Jasmine gave.
"It is forbidden to divorce during menstruation, is it forbidden to marry too, Biyung?" The question of the daughter's biological child is not less pamphanya than her biological mother.
Canda glanced at her husband, then she focused on looking at his son's face again. "Shaikh Muhammad bin Shalih Al-Utsaimin said that the marriage contract of women who are menstruating is valid, there is no problem. The main law or condition of the contract during menstruation is halal and legal, unless there is a proposition that prohibits it. While there has never been a proposition stating the illegality of marriage contracts when women are menstruating. But what is forbidden is...." Canda glanced at her husband, wanting her husband to help explain this.
"What is it, Biyung?" Jasmine looks forward to the story.
"Barring sleeping in the bridal chamber. If you marry it, sleep together between husband and wife, right? Well, can't just be. Later prohibition in the last period, which Biyung said explained later after Jasmine grew up, yes there is something to do with marriage," Givan said suddenly. Givan knows where he has to work with his wife.
Jasmine turned her position, to face her father. When turned back by her foster children, Canda turned around and reflected. He felt he had time to fix his lipstick just mounted on the bottom.
"Dad knows about menstruation? Why don't you explain it to me?" Jasmine took one step forward to get closer to her father who was sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Because I only know things that are forbidden, I don't understand the science. Father, too, did not understand where the prohibition and hadith came down from. Meanwhile, Jasmine will definitely search the internet dong about the hadith that Biyung said earlier. Let me not be blamed, yes it's better to go directly to Biyung who understands the hadith as well." According to Givan, it is important to explain by telling the source. Because he is aware, if their children think critically. Their children must have smart questions, so maybe they will ask where the ban came from and who said it.
"Do you know how to take care of it? I've washed my CD three times now, because it's always in my pants." Jasmine turned her head trying to look at the back of her trousers.
"Oh, yeah-yes. Biyung has the stuff, Jasmine has to wear it. Sok asked Biyung, I'll find the stuff first." Givan got up and looked for what his son needed - a sanitary pad.
Givan recalled, if his wife always stocked the item because it had a long expiration period.
"Biyung, I'd like to point things out. He said I need that stuff." Jasmine approached Canda who was preening again, then she patted her foster mother's shoulder gently.
Canda glanced at the reflection of her makeup mirror. Then, she saw her husband coming towards her with a pack of sanitary napkins towards her. Kanda knows what her husband means.
"Okay, Biyung teaches you how to cook and clean it." Canda immediately welcomed the sanitary napkin her husband gave her.
