Chapter 2

The screams of a woman standing in front of Azizah, made her steps come to a halt. Looked at a woman with makeup full make up. Then, he poured a glass of drink on Azizah's face.

"Hey, actors! How dare you tease my husband," cried the woman.

Some of the students and his parents, as well as the merchant who was in front of the school, immediately looked towards the two. They were very surprised to hear the words of the woman who had a stocky body by putting on a face of wrath.

"What do you mean?" reply Azizah with a high note. He did not feel that he was already a snatch of people's husbands.

"I heard you teased my husband and wanted to be his second wife!" she shouted while pulling the headscarf and the front shirt belonging to Azizah. Fortunately it was embedded in the brooch, so it did not come off the cloth that covered his head.

"It seems you're wrong people. I don't know your husband" Azizah said as she pulled the woman's hand out of her headscarf.

"lik! Where might my husband suddenly ask permission for polygamy in order to marry you," the woman's hardened.

Azizah remembered the man who once asked her to be the wife of Siri. Of course he rejected it. The man only wants it as his dream filler, not the intention to worship.

"I'm sorry, I rejected that guy. And I also have no desire to be the second wife of your husband. You should pay attention to your husband not to invite to marry another single woman," Azizah said firmly with a sharp eye.

The incident at the school became the gossip of the people in Azizah village. There are those who sympathize there are also those who sneer at him. 

The thing that makes Azizah and her family more and more sick is that more and more men who are not clear and bad about her war want Azizah to be his wife. Want it widows, old virgins, in droves, even those who want to be a second or third wife are also more and more.

When Azizah and her family rejected their proposal because it was not an intention because of Allah. Oaths and insults came out of their mouths for Azizah. Of course this made him even more sad and hurt.

"Sir, are there no good men who want to marry Azizah?" Rosyidah's mother stared at her husband.

"Father will find a man and his family who will accept Azizah as it is" said Mr. Maulana with teary eyes.

Which parents are not sick when they hear that their daughters are old virgins, actors, and matres because they want to find rich and young men.

     Mr. Maulana went to the Great Mosque of Hidayatulloh in the district, today there is a monthly study section. Retired as a school principal a year ago. He was active in the study up to the sub-district level. Usually he is only active in mosques in his village because it is quite far if he has to go to the district.

"Assalamualaikum, Mr. Maulana," greeted Irwansyah as they passed out of the mosque.

"Wa'alaikumsalam's chat. Uh, Irwansyah? Do you also like to study here?" ask Mr. Maulana who did not expect to meet one of his favorite students first.

"Yes, Sir. Since moving and living here, active again in the Great Mosque of Hidayatulloh," replied Irwansyah with a simple smile.

"How long have you been here?" ask the man who has begun to enter the age of twilight.

"One year ago. After papa died and mom did not want to be invited to the capital. All of you continue papa's business that had been neglected since he was sick first," replied Irwansyah.

"How are your wife and children?" 

"Thank God, all is well."

"Mama, you?"

"Alhamdulillah. Irwansyah can you talk about something personal?"

"Well, what, huh, sir?"

"We'd better talk on the terrace of the mosque. Scared for a long time," asked Mr. Maulana.

     The two men sat on the terrace of the mosque next to the mosque facing the mosque garden. The atmosphere there was quiet because the pilgrims had gone home.

"Irwansyah, do you have any intention of wanting to have more than one wife?" asked Mr. Maulana nervously and softly.

"Astaghfirullahal. No, Sir! I really love Rela. There is no intention to polygamy himself" replied Irwansyah.

"Ah, sorry for interrupting your time" said Mr. Maulana, then he stood up.

"Why are you talking about polygamy to me?" ask the man who still looks very young despite having two children.

Then Mr. Maulana also told about Azizah and the treatment of people who were done to his daughter. Hearing this made Irwansyah full of heart. Even he was very angry at the man who was already insolent towards the good girl.

"After the incident she was almost raped, Azizah never again left the house alone. You also now take him to school" said Mr. Maulana.

"Astaghfirullahal'adzim, may Azizah be hastened and reunited with her soul mate," said Irwansyah in a soft word.

"So I asked you to marry Azizah. Of course it must be with permission from your wife," said Mr. Maulana.

"Which wife wants to be combined, sir. There will be a dispute with them later. Some felt jealous or felt unfairly treated," Irwansyah replied. He did not want to hurt the heart of the woman who had accompanied his life for 10 years.

"You are the only one that comes to your mind. A good man who can be a priest for Azizah" said Mr. Maulana with tears that can no longer be contained.

"Sorry, Sir. I'll help you find a sholeh man who wants to marry Azizah. I have a couple of store employees who are single and there are also widows without children. Who knows if Azizah is among them" Irwansyah said.

"Thank you, for helping. You feel happy now," said Mr. Maulana with a smile on his face.

***

It turns out that no one from the store would want a barren woman. Even the widower would not. Irwansyah also contacted some of her acquaintances who did not have a life partner and they were the same.

"Dream, why daydream?" a beautiful woman approached Irwansyah.

"There's something you're thinking about" Irwansyah replied and embraced his wife.

"Whatis that? Come on, share it with me, Bang. Let's find a solution together" Rela told her husband.

Irwansyah faced his wife, then asked Irwansyah carefully. "Darling, if you asked permission to do polygamy, would you approve?" 

"What's? You have the intention to polygamy!" bela Ambarita shouted in surprise.

***

Will there be a husband and wife quarrel? Or does Rela support it? Wait for it to go, yeah!
