Islam Learning Fasting
21. Sleeps

Islam ran up to Ali who now supported his waist which was painful after running up the steps. Never climb the stairs while running, well now they both, Islam and Ali must run up the steps as many as 99. Is that not exhausting? Of course it was exhausting!

"Crazy you ninggalin me," said Islam while trying to adjust his breath make his chest go down with his mouth open irregularly.

"It's true, they all also do not know if I throw, besides I also accidentally," martial Ali who occasionally looked up to look up to look for air.

"Lo crazy" said Islam.

"Why are we all? Like it has been chased by dogs," said Sarifuddin who had arrived beside Islam and Ali.

"It's not chasing a dog but throwing a dog."

"Hust!" reprimands Islam which quickly elbowed Ali's stomach.

Ali looked at Islam with a look on his face that asked for clarity. Sarifuddin only stared silently at the two men in front of him who were now quiet with no sound.

"Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh."

Islam turned to look at Abah Habib who stepped into the mosque along with Akbar, Akbir, Firdaus and Shuaib greeted by a greeting from the santri.

Ali closed his mouth when he found out that Shuaib's forehead had become lumpy and flushed after being hit by his shoes. Ali admitted that the shoes were hard and heavy.

Abah Habib who intended to step towards the front of the saf was restrained when he saw Islam who was now looking at him. Abah Habib smiled and then stepped closer to Islam making all views on Islam.

"Alhamdulillah, Abah is very happy that Islam is in the mosque" Abah Habib said.

Islam sighed lazily, there was no intention for him to respond to the words of Abah Habib, for him it was not important. Islam turned to look at Akbar who continued to look at him making the feeling of Islam uncomfortable and consequently made Islam nod in response to the utterances of Abah Habib.

"Come on! We pray in the front saf!" invite him with a happy face while stretching his hands ready to reach the hand of Islam.

"No need! I'm not interested," reject Islam and then move toward Abirama and Christians who are in the corner.

Abah Habib sighed, he moved his head to the right when Akbar touched his shoulder and whispered, "Let's pray!"

The sound of the chanting of the holy Quran sounds so melodious, the melodious voice comes from a man with a black, handsome appearance with a thin mustache and a very neat and clean appearance. He is Rahman, son of Firdaus who is also an educator in this pesantren. Thanks to his pretty handsome face that makes it one of the most popular oustad by santriwati.

Rahman is the woman's dream. He was a devout man of worship, good with his meek attitude. Even more amazing, this handsome man has finished shipping 30 juz of the Qur'an.

Prayer runs so solemnly when the sweet voice of Rahman seduces the believers.

The prayer ends with a prayer led by Firdaus. After it ended all rushed up from its place.

Rahman crawled up to Abah Habib and grabbed Abah Habib's right hand and kissed him. Abah Habib smiled as he rubbed Rahman's back.

"The son of antum is really very good, especially after he studied in Saudi Arabia," Abah Habib told Firdaus who was fouled by Rahman.

"Thank you Pak Haji kiyai, ana is also very happy especially now that ana can gather again with son ana and a few more days will enter the holy month of Ramadan." Firdaus smiled as he patted with warmth Rahman's back which only looked smiling while bowed, the compliment made him feel embarrassed.

"How did you study in Saudi Arabia?" ask Akbar.

"Alright, Alhamdulillah," he replied.

"It is fortunate to have a sholeh child like Rahman, if ana has a child like Rahman maybe ana will be very grateful," said Akbar.

"Afwan, don't you think Akbar's nature has a child? Oh yes if it is not wrongly called Islam, right?" asked Rahman confusion makes Akbar a little surprised by Rahman's speech.

Abah Habib turned to look at Rahman after staring at Akbar who looked uncomfortable.

Rahman turned to look at Akbar and Abah Habib in turn, he did not understand why the two of them just fell silent.

"Em Rahman!" call Firdaus.

"Yes, Abah?"

"Not to ask!" whiskey Firdaus.

"Ehem, Eh Nak Rahman!" call Abah Habib to make Rahman and Firdaus turn their heads.

"Yes haji kiyai sir?"

Abah Habib took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

"Actually Islam, Abah's grandson is here" Abah Habib said with a smile.

"really?" ask Rahman happily.

Abah Habib nodded slowly.

"Where is he then?" ask Rahman.

"He-"

"Sir Haji Kiyai!" call Shuaib who ran towards Abah Habib, Akbar, Firdaus and Rahman who quickly turned his head.

"What's wrong?" ask Akbar.

"That's..it!" Point it towards the back.

"What's wrong?" asked Abah Habib who was very confused.

"Islam!" shuaib said that Abah Habib was shocked and quickly got up from the floor.

"What's wrong? What happened to Islam?" abah Habib asked with a worried face.

...*****...

Abah Habib ran with difficulty to reach the crowd where there were many students gathered. Now what haunts Abah Habib's mind is whether Islam fell ill after a night of not being fed dinner. Well actually he had told Shuaib to call Islam and his three friends had dinner but Akbar forbade it and said that this was a punishment for him for not participating in Islamic prayers in the mosque.

"Give way!" pinta Akbar who joined the crowd.

The santri gave way to let Abah Habib, Akbar, Shiuaib, Fidaus and Rahman divide the crowd.

Abah Habib's steps stopped with both eyes wide open looking at Islam, Christianity, Abirama and Ali who were seen lying on a cool bed that they deliberately made a pedestal so that they were not dazed when their skin came into contact with the floor. Not only was Abah Habib surprised but everything included Akbar whose jaw seemed to tighten with a sharp eye.

They're sleeping!

Once again sleep!!!

The santri whispered to each other while staring at these four thugs who were still asleep, even Ali who fell asleep with his mouth gaping upwards it looked so very scary.

"Astagfirullah O Allah" said Abah Habib who then shook his head.

"Shuaib!"

"Yes, Haji" he replied quickly.

"Why not wake them up and let the students see Islam sleeping on the floor like this?"

"Afwan, Pak Haji but ana has tried to wake him from earlier but they do not want to wake up too," he explained.

Akbar smacked his lips in annoyance and then he stepped away after feeling ashamed of Firdaus and Rahman. His son was very much different than the son of Paradise.

"Shuaib!"

"Yes, hajj sir?"

"Get water!"

"Water? What is Hajj for?"
