SANTRI MBELING
CHAT MBAH WALI SURO AND A PAIR OF TIGERS

A beautiful morning full of blessings.

The banner of teenagers was sweeping the house of Kyai Nuruddin.

Temporary... Kyai Nuruddin walked back and forth in the hallway kitchen room while commating - we brought a small bagbih, while Bu Nyai Shinta was busy cooking for breakfast.

After sweeping the living room and family room is also the room of the Kyai... The pennant continued sweeping in the kitchen room. When delicious - tasty... Kyai Nuruddin asked, Suddenly,

"Mas Panji's... If the Javanese are usually called Mas yaa?%

"Yes Kyai," Panji replied as he swept over.

"Mas Panji, you already know how not to do ablution and holiness," asked Kyai.

"Tau Kyai, but not yet memorized," said Panji.

"If the readings and the ordinances of prayer have not been memorized?" ask the Kyai.

"Yes Kyai, not yet memorized," replied Panji.

Later in the day, after the prayer... You go to the study room of the princess cottage... Later Evi tea that teaches you to know and memorize the letters hija'iyyah. Let you quickly be able to memorize and know the hija'iyah," said the Kyai.

"Yes Kyai," Panji replied then continued sweeping.

After sweeping... Panji mopped Kyai's house.

After the kyai went to work in the religious office... Banner then breakfast, then sweep the kitchen and wash the dishes.

After all was done, Panji returned to the hut with shunt steps. While walking the Panji said inwardly,

"My body feels so good... Sweeping and mopping up Kyai's huge house. Hmmm... Every day I would sweep and mop up Kyai's big house... Long time I don't feel at home like this. Luckily when I was in elementary school, my mom used to tell me to sweep the floors and mop the house, so, I know how to clean the house. Thank you, Mother... Thanks to the lesson I gave you... I know how to sweep and mop the floor. Mother science is very useful today to me..."

"Panji, here...!!" yelled Kang Ujang.

"What is Kang," asked Panji.

"Ayoo ate together" said Kang Ujang,

"This is salted fish as sambel trasi."

"Thank you Kang, I'm full, I just ate at the ndalem" Panji replied.

"Pennants... Delicious for you, eat in ndalem," said the other santri,

"The side dishes must be delicious - delicious! What fish did you eat?"

"Barusan eat fried chicken fish, sambel peteh eseng tempeh similar to the chinjo chips," said Panji.

"Haaa...! It's delicious" said Kang Ujang,

"4 healthy 5 perfect."

"Yes Kang, 4 healthy food 5 perfect that makes us smart... Because of its many vitamins. If salted fish sambel trasi... It can make us stupid!" the word Panji then passed by cuek.

"Basar santri new santri tau!" said another santri who ate salted fish.

"The cooking of salted fish sambel terasi said to make us stupid, arrogant very...!!! If it wasn't kyai's khadam, I would've fucked you."

"Patience Kang, patience," said Kang Ujang,

"The new santri banner does not yet know life in the boarding school, so you senior please understand.

The banner was indeed radak - his son's strange radak."

Adhan duhur.

After praying... Panji went to the princess's cottage next to Kyai's house,

"Assynoltom..."

"Waalaikumsalam," answered one of the santriwati,

"Who are you looking for? And what's the need for what?"

"I was told by Kyai to come here to meet Evi's tea" Panji replied.

"This is Kang Panji yaa...?" tanya Teh Evi arrived - arriving from behind the door.

"Yes, Evi" replied Panji.

"Ayoo please come in, we learn in the living room yaa," said Evi then picked up the whiteboard and sepidol.

As soon as Panji sits in front of two senior santriwati... Many other santriwati peeked out from behind the window.

"Banner, how old is he now?" ask Roro Tea.

"15 years old Ma'am," answered Panji innocently.

"It's really good of you," Evi said with a smile,

"Me and Roro Tea will teach you to know the hija'iyah and how to read it."

After studying for almost an hour... Evi tea arrived - suddenly the fad of pennant, pennant,

"Panji, what's this letter?"

"Shin" replied Panji.

"When you read it in the house what?" ask Evi.

"The speaker is Su" Panji said slowly.

"What do you read this to me?" ask Evi.

"Su," replied the banner.

"Well, what was it when it was read?" evi asked with a small laugh.

"Susu" said Panji.

Seeing Evi and Teh Roro laughing... Panji just realized that he was in work.

"Yes, starting tomorrow... Kang Panji doesn't have to go to the princess's cabin anymore... Because Kang Panji can quickly memorize and can read the imprint," said Evi,

"Kang Panji's... Read and remember often - remember...! I can and will understand."

"Alright, Miss Evi, thank you," said Panji then left the princess cottage.

Seeing Panji walking while carrying a book... Kang Subur shouted,

"Panji, here...!!!"

See Kang Fertile's call... The banner approached, too,

"What's Kang, just tumben alone."

"Yes this is again memorizing the Alphiah while copying," replied Kang Fertile,

"It's coffee, it's a cigarette from where, what under the books?"

"From Kang's daughter's cottage," Panji replied then sipped coffee.

"Haaa...! Is that really you?" asked Kang Subur surprised,

"During here... No son santri yet playing to the princess santri cottage! Cook you new santri can play to the princess santri cottage...?"

"It's all because of the effect of my handsome face Kang," Panji replied casually then lit a cigarette,

"If Kang Fertile's kayak face is a fitting face passan! So don't get into the category of choice santri princess."

"What's serious about you Panji, don't joke around" said Kang Fertile, pouting,

"Your truth is from the princess's cottage?"

"Yes, I was told that Kyai had studied with Teh Evi and Teh Roro" Panji said,

"Learn to memorize and read hija'iyah."

"Let's...! It's so cool dong!" said Kang Subur spirit,

"Beautiful is Evi Tea...? I used to see her when she went to the store or to the stall next to buying packaged rice."

"What's the matter?" Panji.

"Dizziness my head learns the same way they do! They both laughed, not seriously studying... Do you have a crush on Evi?"

"Yes, I have a crush, but there's no way, I'm a long way adrift with them" said Kang Subur.

"Don't have a crush on Evi!" Panji Word.

"Emang why?" ask Kang Fertile.

"If you were married to Miss Evi... Ma'am Evi will get a disaster...! You have a blessing!" panji said with a smile.

"Can't that be it?" asked Kang Subur curiously.

Because your face fits - passan...! Evi is beautiful. So then... A beautiful person gets an ugly-faced husband, it's the same as he gets a disaster," Panji said, laughing.

"Fertile Kang... I think there's a new santri, it's 4 teenagers with their families," while pointing the banner towards the new guests who come.

The wind blew, unknowingly... The exhausted banner fell asleep on the mat under the shady tree.

When Panji sleeps... Panji dreamed of seeing two tigers sitting next to him... The same tiger was present in his dream last night.

***

That afternoon Panji slept soundly beside Kang Fertile who was memorizing the Alphiah under a mat-shaped tree. In dreams... The banner saw an old grandfather whose face was filled with rays of light. The grandfather was chatting with the two tigers that were in front of him, and faintly Panji listened to their chatter;

"Kyai Shabbat... I leave my children to you" said the old man,

"Let him be good, help him with all his difficulties here. Protect from all kinds of dangers, disasters that arise from the jinn and humans as well as the universe."

"Alright Mbah Suro" replied Kyai Jabat,

"My wife and I will always take care of your children here, and thank you, which Mbah Suro has entrusted also entrust Gus Panji to us.

With Gus Panji here... This boarding house will be a blessing."

"Kyai Shabbat... Let the life of the Panji be here as it is, do not privilege it, let it walk like running water... In order for Panji Cicitku to understand and become an independent young man also think mature," said Mbah Wali Suro.

"Alright Mbah Suro, I understand," said Kyai Jabat in the form of a tiger.

"Then... I say goodbye first," said Mbah Wali Suro,

"Assynoltom..."

"Waalaikumsalam" replied Kyai Jabat and his wife.

When good - good sleep in a dream state... Suddenly Kang Ujang came directly pat Panji on the shoulder while saying,

"Eeeee wake! Wake up...! It's a fucking prayer."

Hearing Kang Ujang's noisy voice... Panji got up and said,

"Hemmm Kang Ujang just brisik, make me wake up."

Shortly after, came some senior students approached Kang Ujang, Kang Subur also Panji, and,

"Heeeeee... Panji, new santri... Why did you just say that if you eat salted fish sambel terasi we can be stupid?"

"Yes it will be stupid" Panji replied, then lit a cigarette,

"Try all of you every day, morning at noon eat the same salted fish sambel terasi continue for a month? You guys are gonna be high blood. After a high blood pressure... Your brain is not controlled, then you will become grumpy and unable to think normally.

If the mind is out of control and becomes angry... How can you learn njai...? Then I call you stupid."

Heard Panji's reply... Kang Ujang laughed, though,

"There's also your Panji, but who's going to eat salted fish a month...?" 😅

Adzan asar was heard roaring, the santri rushed ablution then pray together. After the prayer... Panji went to ndalem the Kyai's house. The banner watered the yard of the house, after which the Panji swept the yard. After sweeping, Panji tidied up the garden. When all is finished... Panji back to the cottage.

In the corner room... The pennant sat down while holding a piece of paper. While enjoying a cigarette... The banner memorizing Al Fatihah's letter is also a hija'iyah.

After studying for about an hour, Panji heard Kang Salim's voice at the door,

"The banner...! Let's take a bath in the river."

"Alright," said Panji and then left.

Adzan magrib sounded.

The santri had gathered in the musollah to perform the magrib prayer. After the magrib... Panji heads to Kang Fertile's room to learn to read the Qur'an.

When you are finished njai... Kang Subur said,

"Pennants... Thank God you have memorized the letter of Al Fatihah, as well as the recitation of the prayer. Your honor tomorrow... You learned to read and memorize Amma juice."

"Yes Kang" Panji replied.

As usual, after the prayer... Panji went to ndalem's kitchen for dinner and washed the dishes.

After eating... Panji back to the cottage. Walking in front of the musollah... Panji sees Kyai Nuruddin teaching the book.

With a gontai step, Panji approached the musollah, then sat behind to listen to the Kyai explain the book of Ihya Ulumuddin.

Seeing the Kyai smoking while explaining the book... The pennant takes out a cigarette and then ignites the cigarette. Cigarette smoke slowly - the land out of the Panji's mouth and nose, then scattered in the room musollah no fan.

"Heeee Panji, turn off the cigarette! No manners while smoking," said one of the senior santri.

"Kang, his Kyai kan also smokes... Cook I can't smoke" Panji said,

"Kan Kyai gave me an example of smoking." 😅

"Ah, it's up to you!" said one santri while furious.

When Kyai Nuruddin was explaining the book of Ihya Ulumuddin... Kyai was surprised to see that there were two tigers sitting beside Panji on the porch of the musollah. But the Kyai, silent while explaining the book also while looking at two tigers.

Then... By arriving Kyai stood up and walked closer to Panji. See the Panji leaning against the wall of musollah while smoking... Kyai Nuruddin smiled and then sat down next to the priest.

Seeing Kyai's strange behavior is not as usual... The santri assume that the Kyai will be angry with Panji, because he smokes while njai.

After being closed with the kalimat "Wallahu'alam Bishawab," the santri scattering out of the musollah, some of which are still sitting on the terrace of the musollah.

"Kang Panji," call Kyai Nuruddin who is standing next to the door of the musollah.

Heard the voice of Kyai... Some santri were very surprised, because usually the Kyai went straight to ndalem.

"Yes Kyai," Panji replied as he placed his cigarette on the floor then stood up while bowing his head.

While sitting Kyai said,

"Kang Panji likes to smoke...? Ayoo sit here.

Salim Kang... Please buy me three cups of coffee and a cigarette for Panji kang, here's the money."

"Sendikoh dawuh Kyai," replied Kang Salim then rushed to the stall behind the cottage.

"Kang Panji's... Please pijitin my back and shoulders yaa," said Kyai then take off his cocoa shirt, then prone on the floor.

"Yes Kyai," Panji replied then his hand began to lightly massage Kyai's back.

"Kang Panji why are you following the book of Ihya Ulumuddin...? While the study of this book is for senior students who are alim," asked Kyai casually.

"Happy Kyai, even if I just listen, I'm happy for Kyai" Panji replied.

"Then why do you smoke when njai in musollah...? As for your senior santri, just don't dare smoke?" said the Kyai.

"My color had Kyai's cigarette, and I just happened to have eaten" Panji replied,

"If I don't have a cigarette, I don't smoke Kyai."

Hearing Kang Panji's innocent answer... Kyai was curious and asked again.

"Why did you eat and smoke?" ask the Kyai.

"The color of the meal is 4 healthy 5 perfect Kyai, so the fifth one is smoking," replied Panji. 😅

Heard the Panji... Kyai laughed out loud - bahak.

"Assalamualaikum" said Kang Salim,

"It's Kyai, the coffee and the cigarettes."

"Waalaikumsalam" replied the Kyai.

"This is Kang Panji coffee, let's drink and then smoke... Massaging while smoking, make it perfect" said Kyai. 😅

"Do you know what smoking is legal in Islam?" ask the Kyai.

"Smoking is mandatory" answered Panji innocently.

"Well, what's the reason?" ask the Kyai.

"The reason is. because kyai NU is flat smoking, who who is smoking imitates the kyai NU... Then he will get a blessing from kyai NU," replied Panji confidently.

Heard Panji's reply... Kyia laughed out loud, then said,

"Who are you...?"

"Said Kang Salim Kyai, this is the person," Panji replied as he looked at Kang Salim's face.

"Kang Salim's... You taught the true Panji...! He is still innocent and does not know about the laws of Fikih, later he can Ngawur make his own laws," said the Kyai.

"Sendikoh dawuh Kyai" replied Kang Salim,

"Yesterday it was just kidding Kyai." 😅
