Johanna muttered in her heart. He had no idea what Ghea was talking about. So outspoken and unhesitatingly speaking of religious rhetoric. Even as if so proud of the condition of the diversity of his family.
As far as Johanna was concerned, Ghea embraced Islam. But as long as he knew, never once had he seen his friend doing his religious activities. He hardly ever appears as a believer of his own beliefs.
Until then, Ghea asserted without asking for a single bit, "Administratively, the cave followed the same religion nyokap. KTP cave Islam. While the nonis cave. But in the cave house there are no religious symbols both and also there has never been any worship practice, except. High tolerance, anyway. Hi-hi-hi's chat. Great cave family, Han?" tanyanya proud. "That's why, the cave meningan do not follow anyone."
"Why?" He asked Johanna out of curiosity.
"Yaaa .. you think so," said Ghea again. "Kalo grotto follow the religion of bokap, not good as nyokap. On the contrary, if you choose to be a nyokap religion, 'how do you feel the same way? Yeah, right? Yeah, had. Neutral cave. Some of the caves think, the cave bokap. Hi-hi-hi."
'Astaghfirullahal'adziim!'
"What did the cave say? Without religion, life is free. Not constrained by this rule. Just like you, can not eat this. Ah, ribet! God created it all, for us to enjoy. Satisfied while alive. Beres, right? Without God, we can be ourselves. Life is good, the economy is guaranteed, and most importantly..The cave is not like those religious pretenders, but its heart is rotten."
Johanna refused to chim. Not a good time to talk about such a topic. Moreover, the discussion is quite sensitive. Thought the girl with narrow eyes, maybe Ghea has not been met with a moment where he is in need of the presence of God. But of course, from the conversation he remembered the conversation he had with Reychan before.
"To build a building, one of the first and most important things is to have a strong foundation" Reychan explained. "For once the structure of the building is established, the longer the foundation will carry a heavy burden. Little by little and will continue to be so all the time." Johanna digested everything that was said by her lover. "Same with the household. Love is only a sweetener, but the main foundation to be prepared is faith. Confidence that the fabric of the marriage relationship is not for a day, a month, or year after year. But for a lifetime count. There, capital and provision of religious knowledge is very necessary. The point, is to create a stable family rhythm and also to prepare a more purposeful generation."
Still according to Reychan, "Having a partner of faith alone does not guarantee it all, but must also understand each other's rights and obligations, in accordance with what has been written through the words of God, but also must understand each other, the Allah Subhanahu Wata'ala. Both written directly in the Qur'an and through the explanation of Al Hadith."
The man's urge after sipping his mineral water drink, "Imagine, if the religious guidelines of each couple are different, which may be able to unite two differences of belief under one roof named household. One of the parties, will definitely want their offspring based on their beliefs. Kalopun, then the next generation will not get the right direction and guidance, because their initial foundation is different from the order. Yeah, right?"
"What does this have to do with us, Rey?" ask Johanna. Actually, he already understood the expression of the man, but wanted to get more purposeful and honest clarity.
Reychan looked into Johanna's eyes with a thin, charming smile. He said, "God does not forbid us to fall in love, but God also gives us choices. It is up to us to take which, as long as we are able to account for it later in the final year or the day when we will one day be resurrected from the dead."
"I am grateful for our differences, but for more than that, I love my Lord, my Lord, Han. You got it, didn't you? Sorry, Han. I'm …."
Johanna bowed listlessly. He had already thought, what answer would the man say.
"Continue .. If you don't expect more, why should this relationship be established, Rey?" ask the girl. "We should never put something that we believe will not happen."
But Johanna herself could not blame the man, because from the beginning she had never given a definite hope. That girl who put her dreams too high with the frills of her original intention, which is to want to approach the new God who she believes through the figure of Reychan.
So it is true, Johanna thought eventually, that perhaps every religious teaching would never allow His servant to marry another people of God. Because the figure in front of him at that time, has given concrete evidence that ….
"God! How, even daydreaming?" ghea surprised Johanna. "You don't hear what that crap cave has been?"
"I was horrified, Eya," Johanna said softly. But the direction of his eyes was fixated on the hijab figures near them. Of course, Ghea also spontaneously followed where her friend's eyes were. Ask later, "Why? Do you want to join those ukhti-ukhti? Hi-hi-hi's chat. Did you feel fit just by capitalizing on the status of you who converted?"
"Ih, what the hell are you talking about, Eya? Offhanded!" jehanna immediately pouted. "Gua just thought, thankfully they were born as a Muslim, from a Muslim family, well, veiled, and now .. just follow up what they got before from their parents."
"Not necessarily!" tangkis Ghea pessimistic. "Pakean kayak they are so, do not guarantee if they are much better than us. Many are veiled, but the behavior is more than an *****. Hi-hi-hi's chat. Lest they were also real perverts."
"Hus, can't 'that's it, Non!" johanna's criticism is bad. "Walopun, for example, they are like the ones you accused just now, but they seem to be a step better than us. Close the law, because it is aware of the commandments of God. Than us?" Suddenly his heart became upset with the attitude of his friend that one.
Arising instantly in Johanna's mind, could it be that she should also close the aurat syar'i like them? How will his friends and family respond? Especially Aunt Chika. Will the old woman hate him more? But is not closing the aurat mandatory, whatever the conditions and moral classification of a person?
'Subhanallah ..' said Johanna. 'I have to change everything to be better. Sooner or later, I became a Muslim. Obligations for the sake of obligations began to bind me, since this self vowed through two sentences of the creed; Ashhaduallaa ilaaha illallah, wa ashhadamanna muhammadarrasuulullah. If it is the environment that makes me survive in ignorance, then I should have left all to reach the pleasure of Allah.'
Including breaking up a friendship with Ghea? Why should I leave him? Thought Johanna. Shouldn't he embrace that figure to change for the better? Islam does not forbid its people to socialize, because this religion is rahmatan lil'aalamiin, whose presence in the midst of community life is able to realize peace and affection for humans and the universe. As stated in the word of God, Surat Al-Anbiya’ verse 107; “And we have sent you (Muhammad), but to (become) mercy for the universe of the universe”.
It is very clear in the verse that the teachings of Islam that are understood correctly will bring grace to all people, both Islam and non-Muslim, even to all nature. Islam does not justify discrimination because of differences in religion, ethnicity, race, and nation. Therefore, it should not be an excuse to divide each other.
