They all complained about not being strong enough to carry the burden of the Slamet pack, then Pak Haji Faruk recited a holy verse that makes the coffin can be lifted by ten men but only a few steps they all complained not strong and put the coffin of the corpse downwards.
"Our Hajj sir gave up if we had to carry this coffin up to the cemetery". Firmly Mr. Budi who is thick-bodied.
Then the Hajj sir thought of a solution that must be taken immediately, he said, mr. Haji Faruk asked his son to take a pick up car in his house to transport the coffin of the corpse of the Slamet pack because it would take a long time if they had to contact the existing ambulance at the village puskesmas.

There were some residents talking about the oddity on the day of Mr. Slamet's funeral, while Harto who heard the citizens' words about his mbakyu husband could only be silent and bow his head.
"Lho sir, his grave hole is less long than". Harto exclaimed at the grave digger.
"We have measured it according to the length of this body". Tukas pak Ali was one of the gravediggers while showing the paper graffiti containing the length and width of the burrow.
"Have you measured back". Pinta pak hajj by frowning his forehead.
After Harto and Ali re-measured the length of the body, the grave diggers began to dig the ground back to the length they had just measured.
And after the excavation process was completed some residents began to lift back the body of Mr. Slamet, but again the grave hole was less long.
With forced pak Haji Faruk took the decision to bend the legs of the corpse with the permission of Ani as his wife.
It looks like Ani ma'am is not willing if her husband's body must be bent both legs, her husband, but the Hajj sir had no other choice because various strange events today will continue if the body is not immediately buried.
"Well, my Hajj sir agrees with the decision of the hajj sir". Said Ani's mother with tears.
After that some residents were forced to follow the orders of the hajj sir to bend the legs of the body of the Slamet pack, seen the frightened face of everyone who was under the grave hole.
While the Hajj sir who understood the fear of the citizens helped them by deciding to come down into the burrow.
Kraaakk...
There was a sound of broken bones after being forced to bend by Haji Faruk, seen Ani maam crying hysterically and immediately fainted on the spot after hearing the sound of her husband's broken leg bones.
Harto held onto his unconscious mbakyu shoulder.
And after the burial process was completed everyone was seen reciting prayers for the deceased pak Slamet.
"Mom I'm so horrified to see the funeral today, my whole life just this time saw a corpse whose legs were bent". Bisik bu Siti in the ear of Bude Walimah.
"Yo same mom I also just saw an awkward incident at the funeral". Bude Walimah spoke in a soft tone.
"What are the sins committed by the late Mr. Slamet until his body is bent like that". Said bu Siti by frowning her forehead.
"Either ma'am only God is omniscient, may we be kept away from bad deeds so that at the end of our lives we are not like the deceased pak Slamet". Tukas bude Walimah walked out of the cemetery.
Meanwhile, Faruk Haji who finished handling the funeral process helped Harto take care of various funeral administrations and had him bring Ani's mother to the parking lot of his pick-up car.
