Islam Learning Fasting
25. Queue And Prayer

"It's a long way not to bathe her?" kristian asked as she stepped in with a towel on her shoulder and a blue dipper filled with toiletries.

Well after the lesson was over they decided to take an afternoon shower. Now they walk together while carrying toiletries.

"It's not far, it's there!" Appoint Sarifuddin using the tip of his lips.

Islam lifted his gaze with both wide eyes staring at the three long rows that stretched out in front of the bath.

The steps of Islam, Christianity, Abirama and Ali came to a rapid halt.

"Buset, that's really gini!" ali was so shocked by what he saw.

"I thought I was eating in line but taking a shower too" said Kristian with a limp face.

Islam poked his lips then stepped back to balance his steps with Sarifuddin who continued to walk and now lined up behind the santri who were still busy waiting in line.

"This is true, time must be good," protested Islam while scratching his head, since he lived here, Islam has never bathed.

Ali propped up her waist while on her tiptoes gazing towards the door of the bath that was still tightly closed.

"A long time ago, Eh this was already the bath?" tanya Ali made the santri who was beside him turn his head.

"Just come in" he replied.

"A long time!" regret then stepped through the queue to make the santri turn to make Ali the center of attention of everyone.

"It is very close to Ali" said Abirama who now stands behind Christianity.

Arriving Ali at the door, Ali immediately hit the door while shouting to make a noise that provoked the attention of the students who were still waiting in line.

Brucks

Brucks

Brucks

"Woy out lo!!! I want to take a shower!!!" shouted Ali.

Islam who had only seen since then now stepped up to Ali and shouted at the door. Kristian and Abirama don't want to miss them coming out of line.

"Hurry hey!!!" shouted Kristian.

"I want to pee!!!" shouted Abirama.

Brucks

Brucks

Their back door hit.

"I'm taking a shower!!!" yelled at the man inside.

"Dog, long time very lo?" irked Ali who then kicked the door made all the students whisper to each other and shook their heads.

"Quick out!!!" shout Islam.

"If I don't go out, I'll break down the door!" threaten Ali's.

"Mas! Don't do it! You have to be like everyone else!" said one of the santri who stood at the front.

"God! Don't bacot much!!!" islamic Geretak.

"But it-"

"A lot of bacot lo, grandson of Haji kiyai sir!" Appoint Ali while patting Islam on the shoulder with pride.

"Hi antum!!!" shouting someone made Islam and the others turn their heads.

Seen from a distance Abah Habib who stood and Shuaib who was seen pointing towards Islam, it is certain that Shuaib who has complained this commotion to Abah habib.

Islam breathed a long breath staring at the full gaze of the eyes of Abah Habib.

Abah Habib stepped closer to Islam and then stood tall before Islam who is now silent while also looking into the eyes of Islam, if usually no one dares to look into the eyes of Abah Habib then different from what Islam did this time.

Abah Habib turned to look at Ali who was still holding the alley of the bathroom door, Kristian and Abirama who now looked down as if afraid to look at Abah Habib. The santri also looked towards Abah Habib who now looked back at Islam.

"Is this Islam?" abah Habib asked with a heavy voice.

"Gue takes a bath" replied Islam.

"Then please wait in line!"

"Then there's no need to take a shower."

Islam blinked his eyes several times as if trying to digest well what Abah Habib said.

"If you do not want to stay long in the pesantren then obey the rules and do good and behave politely otherwise the antum will forever settle in the pesantren," abah Habib then walked away.

Islam was silent exactly like a statue while continuing to look at Abah Habib who continued to step up until Islam realized that there was Akbar who was staring at him.

Al Habibi Akbar Mosque

Islam leaned his body against the mosque wall while staring at the santri who were sitting waiting for prayer time. After Azan was proclaimed, the santri marched in a meeting to prepare for the Isya prayer. Truth be told Islam is not interested in joining but Abirama forced because of curiosity with the name of prayer.

"Islam!" calling Abah Habib makes Islam look at everyone who is looking at him.

Islam looks to the left and right where everyone is really only centered on Islam.

"Let's pray on the front saf!" Appoint Abah Habib in an empty spot right next to him.

Islam turned to look at Ali, Kristian and Abirama who are now silent stiff, for this time the atmosphere of the mosque became silent waiting for an answer from Islam.

"No! I pray in the back," said Islam then rose from the floor and stood in the rear saf.

"But Islam"

"Change!" cut off Akbar while touching Abah Habib's shoulder who is now turning his head.

Akbar shook his head slowly making Abah habib understand, he could not have forced Islam to stand and pray in the front saf with him while Islam was never interested in it.

"There is no need to ask for it or expect it because until then Islam will never change."

"You are wrong Akbar, Akbir said.

"I mean antum?" ask Akbar.

"Ana believes that if Islam can change, today it is not but we don't know what will happen tomorrow" he explained.

Hearing that made Akbar smile cynically and then shook his head as if laughing at what had been said by Akbir. For him this is impossible.

The sound of the chanting of the holy verse of the Qur'an sounds melodious making the santri and other worshipers so very solemn to pray.

Kristian and Abirama turned left and right staring at every prayer movement that was done compactly. Islam only follows with its lazy face, there is no spirit when doing it.

"Let's eat yuk!" invite Ali while whispering towards Islam who looks silent stiff with his flat face.

"Silence lo!" reprimand Islam with a lazy face.

"Shiratha alladzina an'amta alaihim ghairi maghdubi alaihim wa laa ad-dhaaalin."

"Amale!!!" say everything compactly.

Christians turned to the left and right after everyone said the word Aamiin simultaneously.

"Aamiin who?" asked Kristian who looked at Abirama who was now silent while giggling did not know.

"Li, Aamiin what the hell?" whispered.

Ali turned his head, after being silent while huddled and then rose and prostrated on the surface of the prayer mat, Kristian and Ali looked at each other a moment later Ali smiled ignorantly and then whispered.

"They all called their father's name, who called the name of the most kencceng later his parents can go to heaven," he explained lying.

"Oh yeah?"

Ali nodded in spirit.

Now everything stood back where Rahman who became a prayer priest until arriving at the end of the reading Al Fatihah made Ali bite his lips trying to hold his laughter, impatient to hear Christians scream.

"Shiratha alladzina an'amta alaihim ghairi maghdubi alaihim wa laa ad-dhaaalin."

"Amale!!!" say everything compactly.

"Aleeeeeeeeex!!!" christian shouted with his voice echoing inside the mosque.

Ali laughed giggling while covering her mouth that had been drooling because she could not help but laugh. Both shoulders of Islam shook withholding laughter even though the occasional sound of laughter escaped his lips.

"Dropped!" ali whispered towards Islam making Islam laugh giggling while rubbing his eyes that let out tears.

Silent atmosphere!!!

"Madeeeeeee!!!" abirama shouted while the silence made Islam and Ali let go of his laughter.
