"Kullu nafsin dzaiqotul death" is clearly a fragment of the word of God in Surah Ali Imran verse 185, every living person will feel death
Who can resist death? Who do we know what we are doing when the angel Izrail who always lurks seventy times a day takes our lives?, No matter what age and who the death will come, the question for ourselves is only one, are we ready?. Ready to leave and ready to be left behind
"She has gone after her best friend" Umi Sarah said as Naufal and Aqila came home. By Kyai Uthman, he died almost five years ago after Fadila's marriage to Ahmed. Naufal's phone was off, which is why Hasan called his number
Aqila could only see her husband without expression at that time, she did not cry in front of his abi corpse, she just fell silent and took part in teaching there
The wet ground was sprinkled with flowers with the crowd present, the students and alumni of Ponpes Nurul Iman certainly mourned the death of their teacher, a noble figure who had taught them many things. Cloud overcast as if mourning the death of one of God's servants on earth, this slightly mountainous land is proof, if man is only land and will return to be land
"Why is Grandpa penggi?" The innocent question of the four-year-old slid in just like that, seeing his grandfather lying motionless made him feel a sense of sadness
Usually every Sunday they spend time in the bag, Abi Umar even often invite them to play romp also with his cousins Yasmin and Sholeh which is only a few years away
"Because it is called Allah" Aqila answered her daughter's question by putting a little hair out of her headscarf, remaining only family here, guests and other students have returned to the ponpes
"Why does God call?" Aqila sighed for a moment thinking of the right sentence to answer
"He reminded me that if we all belong to God, we are in the world because of God and we are gone from here also because of God, man's life begins when he is born from his mother's belly and is called death when his death comes, when he is called again by God" the little boy nodded, either understanding or not with his mother's explanation
"Mother is also called? Ila don't want to lose mother" the boy hugged his mother's neck tightly. Aqila could only smile stroking her daughter's back and turning her eyes the other way to wipe away the tears that had suddenly dripped just like that
Diana who was behind stroked Aqila's shoulders and shook her head, as a sign of not thinking about the thing she said last night, she felt somewhat guilty for saying that to her sister-in-law
.
"Aren't you guys doing it first?" Aqila and Naufal stared at each other, it was not good to go home, but their house had also been abandoned one day
"Twin twins tomorrow go to school Umi" Naufal kissed Umi Sarah's hand followed by Aqila in the back
"We try to come here tomorrow after they come home" Umi Sarah smiled but her eyes could not lie if her heart was still sad, it was not that easy to be sincere
"You guys be careful on the road" he stroked the head of the twins who almost slept in his parents' arms, the boy must be sleepy because he had not napped and the dhikr event that had just finished
Sure enough, when they got home the dried leaves of mango trees flying in the wind and scattered in the yard, the house looked very dark, fortunately they had turned on the headlights yesterday before leaving, he said, the lights are on all day
"If you want to cry, just cry not to be detained" Aqila approached her husband who was sitting on the side of the bed with a foresight but the mind was either flying where
"Qil, abi go" Naufal dropped his head on his wife's shoulder, from a soft voice slowly heard a small sobbing and Aqila felt her shoulders slightly wet
"Let's go" he said for the umpteenth time
"Humans must be gone, there is nothing eternal in this world, therefore we must be ready, ready to leave or ready to be left behind"
"When yesterday we exchanged news, he said he was fine, why is he leaving now?" shaking is something that is easy to say but to apply it is the hardest thing
"Don't say that..." Aqila knew that Naufal's mind was in turmoil and asked him something he knew for himself
"Only God knows the secret of our lives, believing that there is wisdom behind every event makes us feel better sometimes"
"Crying doesn't mean a person is weak, but he's been strong for too long" Aqila repeated what Naufal had said to her
"Thank you" Naufal further tightened his embrace on his wife's frail body
"For what?" Aqila raised her eyebrows
"Thank you for understanding me and being next to me" Aqila simply smiled knots, can the future continue like this? Or will this place be replaced by someone else?
How can he tell Naufal if it's like this? Just left his abi, is he able to say things that might make Naufal more destroyed? Aqila shook her head to brush off the uncertain dirty thing, but what if it was real? He could not imagine how destructive he was
"Why?" Naufal asked as he felt his wife shake her head
"Whatever happens in the future, Brother Naufal must be strong faced, Ilal and Ila need a strong hero to protect, guide and advise them"
"We will guide them together, teach them and lead them for the better, we will do it together until they get a companion for life"
"If God allows it"
"I mean..."
"Mother, Adek Ila peed" Bilal's voice interrupted their conversation
"Before" Naufal stared at the disappearance of his wife behind the door of the room, he did not understand the meaning of Aqila's words or rather rejected his thoughts that lulled at other intentions
