My Imam, Surgaku
(6). Tasbih Couple's.
"With you will feel unparalleled happiness"
- HUSAYN AND AZALEA
Azalea had just finished the eleventh pillar of prayer, salam. When the greeting was finished, the next thing Azalea did was to recite to Allah.
The woman who had become a wife stuck her hand out toward the nightstand located not far from her to reach her favorite prayer beads.
While being cool - cool to do zikir, arrived - suddenly Azalea's beloved prayer beads cut off. That of course made Azalea spontaneously stop pendzikr. His heart suddenly felt sad.
"Astagfirullahal'adzim," he mumbled. His eyes glazed - the glass stared at the beads - beads of his beloved beads that splattered over his alphabet.
While from behind him, it turns out that Husain has returned from the mosque and opened the door of their room slowly. His eyes looked at the silhouette of Azalea sitting on the prayer mat with her head lowered.
"Assalamu'alaikum, my love," hail Husain.
Azalea who had just noticed the arrival of her husband immediately turned her head towards the back. Her smile grew and found her husband standing at the door, stretching out his arms.
Seeing the sight, Azalea hurriedly stood up from her seat and walked over to Husain.
"Wa'alaikumussalam, dear," Azalea replied with a fluffy smile. She took him into the warm embrace of her husband.
Husain clutched tightly to his wife's tiny body that felt right in his arms. Even he floated a kiss - a friendly kiss on the forehead of the wife.
"Have you finished, my love?" asked Husain gently.
Husayn's question was answered by Azalea.
"Yet? So you're bothering dong?"
"So. Brother is not bothering. But–" Azalea stopped her speech when she recalled her beloved prayer beads that had broken up.
"But why, my love? Hm?" ask Husain curious.
"Aza's favorite seed broke up," Azalea's great-grandson quietly. But fortunately Husayn still heard clearly Azalea's words.
Sensing his wife was in anguish, Husayn took her hand to cupper Azalea's face. He stared at Azalea's bead-shaded eyes - the glass was ready to shed her tears.
"Don't be sad, my dear." said Husain kissing the tip of Azalea's nose fondly.
"Abang got a tasbih couple for, Aza. So don't be sad, yes" Husain said comfortingly.
Hearing Husain's words, Azalea's eyes sparkled brightly.
"Seriously? Couple tasbih?" tanya Azalea made sure.
Husain nodded steadily. "Seriously. Would you like to show me?" tawar Husayn.
Husayn's offer was immediately agreed upon by the Azaleas, "Mau," his zealots.
"OKAY. Just a minute, my love." Husayn let go of their embrace and kissed the head of Azalea at a glance. Only then did the man walk towards the nightstand beside their bed. His burly hands stretched out to open the first drawer.
After finding the thing he was looking for, Husayn took it and pointed it towards Azalea who was still faithfully waiting with a hopeful twinkle.
"This. Blue is for my brother, and gold is for my beloved brother." Husain said, showing tasbih in both hands.
"It's really pretty" Azalea said, looking at the prayer beads Husain showed.
When Azalea's hand wanted to take the golden prayer beads that she said would be hers, Husayn pulled them back.
"How come it was taken again?" tanya Azalea pouted.
"Abang will love this prayer be the same Aza, if later tonight Aza can khatam Al-Qur'an at least three Juz with brother. How's it? Agreed?" husain said he gave the requirements.
"Agreed!" sahut Azalea quickly.
"OKAY. If so after the completion of the Isha prayer, we immediately read the Qur'an," break up Husayn.
"Doki's office"
...-HUSAYN AND AZALEA-...
In accordance with what they both planned, after the Isha prayer both of them have sat opposite each other with the Qur'an in front of each of them.
When Husayn was reading the Qur'an diligently and solemnly, his eyes unintentionally glanced at Azalea who was before him. Husayn only saw the lips of Azalea komat - kamit for a moment and stopped and remained silent while looking at the Qur'an. Once every minute, Azalea would turn over the sheet of the Qur'an that she saw.
When the clock showed at twelve p.m., Husain had already completed nine juz within four hours. It was not difficult for Husain to remember that he had been accustomed to reading the Qur'an for hours. It takes only a few days to recite the Quran.
Since he had finished reading the Qur'an, Husayn immediately asked him what had been in his mind since then to Azalea.
"My dear, why didn't Aza read the Qur'an until the three khatams of Juz?" asked Husain in a soft tone.
Husayn who heard the words of Azalea frowned in confusion. What he had seen since was, Azalea who was only talking for a moment. Then he turned the Qur'an in front of him.
"A lot quicker. I don't think it's possible" Husain said, sounding doubtful.
Azalea smiled sweetly at the reply from the husband.
"Don't the Prophet ever say that the content of Surah Al-Ikhlas is equal to one third of the content of the Qur'an?" azalea asked with a smile that was still fluffy.
"Right," replied Husain confirming.
"Meaning, just reading the letter of Al-Ikhlas three times, it is the same as reciting the Qur'an," Azalea said proudly.
Husayn smirked at the answer Azalea gave him.
"Unfortunately brother, here." Husain patted his thigh.
Before that, Husayn had placed his Qur'an and Azalea's on the nightstand.
Azalea was actually a little hesitant to sit on her husband's lap. But he also had no power to refuse the husband's request. Finally with a steadiness of heart, Azalea sat on Husayn's lap.
After Azalea sat on his lap comfortably, Husain took the initiative to stroke the top of Azalea's head fondly. In fact, he also several times raised a kiss - a kiss on the cheek of the head and the cheeks of Azalea with anxiety.
"Listen to my dear brother, reading the letter of Al-Ikhlas is equal to the reward of the Qur'an khatam, not by reading the Al-Ikhlas we have already recited the Qur'an" Husain explained patiently.
Azalea who heard Husayn's explanation suddenly rounded her eyes funny. His head immediately turned to the side where it made the tip of his nose collide with the tip of Husain's nose.
"So all this time Azalea misunderstood dong?" his question was answered by a slow nod from Husain.
Azalea chuckled small when she felt amused by the friction of Husain's nose on her nose.
"Gapapa, unfortunately you already know the truth," said Husain softly.
Cup.
Cup.
Cup.
Boldly, Azalea threw three kisses on Husayn's lips as a token of her gratitude.
At first Husain was shocked. But a second later, his lips revealed a big smile.
"Thank you brother for the science that is very useful for, Aza," said Azalea with a sweet smile.
"Samely, my love, my heavenly angel,"
Azalea's cheeks are red. His head immediately bowed in embarrassment, trying to hide the hue of his cheek. Sweet words from her husband.
Suddenly, Azalea remembered something. His head immediately looked up at Husain with a sparkling look. Shortly afterwards, Azalea also turned her hand towards Husayn.
"Why?" asked Husain who realized Azalea's hand was also looking towards him.
"His profanity," he replied cheerfully with sparkling eyes.
Hearing that, Husain chuckled softly. His hands convulsed and pinched the sharp nose of Azalea.
"Nih tasbih for his beloved brother" said Husain put a golden prayer beads into the palm of Azalea.
Azalea's eyes immediately sparkled brightly. "Gee. Thanks brother. Aza dear brother," she cried happily.
Husain widened his eyes. Stare lovingly at Azalea.
"Abang also loves Aza. But love Brother, love because of God. Even greater than Aza knew." whispered Husayn to Azalea's ear with affection.
Husain's eyes looked towards the clock which turned out to have shown at half-hour one night. And it's late at night, it's time Azalea fell asleep to pick up the beautiful dream.
"Now open the face and wash your feet, hands, face and teeth. Then go to sleep" ordered Husayn.
"Okey brother." Azalea went from Husayn's lap to carry out the orders Husayn had given her. Every now and then the girl hummed happily while doing a series of steps before going to bed. While Husain who saw it resisted the anxiety of the wife's behavior.
"Prophe Husain. Any minute. After this, you can have the whole Azalea" murmured Husain.
"May God always unite us both in the world and in the hereafter, dear," he continued.
From this we can see how much Husain loved Azalea. A girl who is far from perfect but Husain does not mind her. The girl who still needed guidance that Husain happily guided her.
