Pursuing the Duplicate Love of My Wife
59. Why not just get married?

"I will try my best to do what you want. As well as making Syifa happy," Joe replied solemnly. "But, sir, does this mean I have to memorize all these books before marrying Syifa?"

"Why? You don't want to?" It's not an answer, but a challenge.

"You." Joe nodded quickly. "But isn't it too long?" Do'a for ablution Joe is not too smooth. Of course, it would take a lot of time, if everything had to be memorized.

"You're so cool? Kepengen quickly married Syifa?"

"You could say that, sir." Joe nodded his head with a blushing face. "But obviously .. I'm just afraid, if later you change your mind or Syifa taken people, before me and her married." Knowing Fahmi who looks not sincere, if he has been rejected—tentunya it makes Joe feel afraid, if one day Fahmi will seize Syifa and Abi Hamdan also withdraw his blessing.

"It's not necessary to have such thoughts, Jon. Believe and focus first on your initial goal, which is to know Islam. If you are indeed a match with Syifa .. everything will be beautiful in time" explained Abi Hamdan.

"But .. No, sir, at least Syifa and I got engaged first. To make my heart calm?" pinta Joe pleaded.

Abi Hamdan was instantly silent. He seemed to be thinking hard.

Although Mr. RT himself asked him to accelerate the marriage of Syifa and Joe, but in fact Abi Hamdan himself could not do as fast as he wanted. Because according to him, the marriage must be done and organized carefully. Although Joe and Syifa are considered to have committed adultery.

Abi Hamdan certainly has strong conditions, for his son-in-law. Don't let him be disappointed. Because what he wanted was Syifa to marry once in a lifetime.

After a few minutes of silence, Abi Hamdan finally said, "Tomorrow, after you remove the tattoo. Then meet me."

"Reading that shahada means I'm going to be a Muslim, and have converted, right, sir?" ask Joe to guess.

Abi Hamdan nodded. "That's right. Later I will see for myself you pledge, of course by inviting two witnesses also." He slowly grabbed a piece of paper that had been given to Joe, but had not been taken. Still on the table. "Memorize the creed, I've written it here, Jon."

Give me that thing, and it's taken by Joe. The handsome man with narrow eyes also read the Latin word there. Abi Hamdan deliberately wrote in Latin because Joe certainly would not be able to if written in Arabic.

"Asyhadu an laa ilaaha illallaahu, wa asyhaduanna muhammadar rasuulullah."

Two sentences of shahadah and their meaning:

"I testify that there is no God but Allah. And I testify that the Prophet Muhammad is the messenger of Allah."

In addition to the two sentences of the shahadah, there are also several conditions to convert that are written. Namely a big bath, already circumcised for men and run the pillars of Islam.

"What's a big bath, sir?" ask Joe who doesn't seem to understand. But there is already a sentence of his prayer, which was done when he was about to carry out a mandatory bath.

"Big baths or mandatory baths in Islam are done with the aim to purify yourself of the great hadas. As described in the hadith, a large bath is also a condition for someone who has just converted to Islam. It is based on a hadith: “I came to Nabi shallallahu ‘alaihi wa sallam to convert to Islam. Then he told me to take a bath with water and bidara leaves.” (CHR. Abu Daud)" explained Abi Hamdan. "The temple must be done after you say the shahadah, Jon."

"Good, sir." Joe nodded in understanding. "But tomorrow, where do I meet you? And what time is it?"

"Tomorrow I'll tell you. Now ... You just go home, because it's late afternoon and I'm going to Mr. RT's house, too." Abi Hamdan slowly stood up. Likewise with Joe, but he immediately justified the sheath because it sagged. And a red bag. "Tomorrow to allow again how to wear the sheath, so as not to sag constantly," he said.

"Yes, I'll have to teach Sandi again, sir."

"Wear daleman also dong, do not remove it so. Aren't you afraid he's flying?"

"Where could he fly. There's no wings, sir," Joe chuckled. He thought Abi Hamdan was joking, but the man's face looked so flat with no expression.

They walked together to Syifa's room. Abi Hamdan knocked on the door.

Gts ... Gts ... Geck.

"Sir, means tomorrow ... After I read the shahadah, and officially became a Muslim, I can immediately get engaged to Syifa? That day too?" The question from Joe coincided with Syifa who had just opened the door to her room.

Ceklek~

"Yes." Yeah." Abi Hamdan nodded. "His engagement doesn't have to be fancy, exchange rings and family gatherings, Jon."

"So my family was told to come here too?" terka Joe's.

"Yes. You still have parents, right?" ask Abi Hamdam.

'Me and Mr Joe are getting engaged tomorrow?' inner Syifa with both cheeks that looked flushed. His eyes glanced at Joe with a heartbeat in his chest. 'But why use all fiancees? Why not just marry?'

...Apparently Bu Syifa also has no patience, yes 🤣...
