MURAJAAH QUR'AN 13
"Bude! Noah wanted to make breakfast for Ustadz Thaha!", exclaimed Noah at the kitchen table.
"Aha? What's Neng Nuha doing?"
"Nuha must be able to take his heart so that Noah can be taught najai by ustadz Thaha" he said smoulderingly.
"Kan Ustadz Thaha used to have breakfast in the cafeteria, Neng. Don't bother Neng it's mah"
"But but, Budeee", Nuha immediately complained.
"Forget your selfish feelings, Neng. Bener said ustadz, you have to study really first if you want to be taught ustadz njai"
"Buddee.. Please persuade ustadz Thaha to ngajarin Nuha teachi", pinta Nuha with tears sulking.
"Bude is still busy Neng. Already! Bude wants to go ahead first", he concluded.
Noah continued to cry crocodiles and complained sadly. He wanted to get what he wanted to get, no matter if someone else was holding him back.
"All right! Noah will do it himself!"
...****************...
"Thaha, today you have breakfast at home", mother asked.
"Why Mother?"
"Lhoh did you forget? Kan Athar is only here, so you have to accompany him to breakfast at home"
"When I want to take breakfast in the cafeteria", my mind.
"Yes, Mother", I reply briefly
...****************...
Nuha peeked at the breakfast mahasantri from behind the kitchen hijab. The dining room is very large and the number of mahasantri breakfast, making it difficult to find the existence of Ustadz Thaha. (I am alone, and I have breakfast at home, wek!)
"Nuha, what kind of brand is there?", asked Pakde Roso in surprise when he entered the kitchen.
"Find Ustadz Thaha, Pakde"
"Gus Thaha looks like breakfast here, Nuha"
"Why, Pakde?", asked Noah immediately enthusiastically.
"She's having a guest from abroad" replied Mr. Roso as he walked away from her to find something.
"A foreign guest?"
"She, nduk! Pakde is busy. Don't bother me yet"
"God Sirde, injih.."
Thinking of Ustadz Thaha made Noah forget breakfast. He went out of the kitchen and walked around the cottage.
On the way, Noah met Ustadz Azzam with his wife. Slightly frightened, Noah greeted him with a greeting.
"Assalamu'alaikum, Ustadzah!"
"You again", cynical Ustadz Azzam.
"Wa'alaikumussalaam wa rahatullaahi wa barakatuh", reply Ustadzah Sonia who is none other than the wife of Ustadz Azzam.
"Nuha, where are you going?", asked Ustadzah Sonia.
"Eh?", Noah was confused about where to go.
"Don't wander off, follow your lecture Nuha", pinta Ustadzah Sonia was friendly.
You here, when will you deposit juz four of you, Nuha? This is the 2nd semester and you also have to memorize the fifth juz" said Ustadz Azzam.
"Juz four of Noah is Ustadz! And, the fifth juz is still a process (lie), hehe"
"How was? Just 80 percent", cynical Azzam.
"But Noah tried"
"You learn diligently"
"Nobody taught Nuha"
"You are, it's big still asking to be taught. Learn alone sono!", orders Ustadz Azzam.
"I can't read the Qur'an myself", replied Noah in a low voice.
"Less 20 percent? Sonia's Ustadzah will help Nuha if that?", said Sonia volunteered.
"Huh?"
"Really, ustadzah?"
"Na'am, Noah"
"We go to the gazebo now" invited Sonia.
"Yes already. I taught my wife first class", said Azzam sign gave his wife permission to teach Noah.
"Huek!", taunted Noah.
"Ck!"
...****************...
In the 2m x 2m gazebo, Nuha and Ustadzah Sonia sat there together. The Ustadzah of Sonia had brought a Qur'an and in front of her, Noah was ready to accept her teachings.
"You're good at memorizing Noah, so you won't have any trouble repeating it?"
"Na'am, Ustadzah!"
"alright. I am amazed by your extraordinary ability. So listen to me and follow my reading as you memorize it"
"Na'am, Ustadzah!"
"Yes.. Juz four and less 20 percent huh?, we start from the beginning of Surah An Nisa, okay?"
"Okei? Okay, Ustadzah!"
"Ta'awudz first and we read Al Fatihah together", invite Ustadzah Sonia very kindly.
Ustadzah Sonia was very patient in helping Noah memorize Surah An Nisa. His personality is polite and slang. Very different from her own husband who seemed fierce and angry quickly.
Every time the waqf stops, Nuha repeats the reading of Sonia's Ustadzah. Repeat until one sentence is completed. Two verses. Three verses. For up to 1 hour, Noah managed to memorize 2 pages.
"Mumtaz, Nuha!", Ustadzah gave Sonia two hands, and Noah welcomed her with pleasure.
"More?", asked Ustadzah Sonia.
"Na'am, Ustadzah!"
Nuha, once memorized he was already unable to stop. All the time or all that time, it doesn't matter to him. Until, sometimes who taught him just to exhaustion.
"Good, Nuha!", Praise Ustadzah Sonia.
Nuha gave a shy smile.
"This is why, I love to teach you to memorize. Why don't you just look for me to help you memorize, Nuha?", asked the woman who was 4 months pregnant.
"Nuha often scolded ustadz Azzam for this, hehe. Afwan, Ustadzah! If Nuha, if Nuha always troublesome Ustadzah" said Noah sad.
"I'm not a father, Noah. You forget, if I've helped you memorize since the first juz"
"Yes the ustadzah, but Noah got the nagging ustadz Azzam continues", Noah cried crocodile.
"I'm sorry, Noah. That's because Ustadz Azzam was very worried about me, and this child. Hihi", reply funny Sonia Ustadzah while stroking her stomach.
"Umm.", Noah embraced Sonia's Ustadzah.
"You're a very good boy, Nuha. Good will always be around you. Although I cannot fully teach you memorization, there will definitely be others who will help you with pleasure"
"Na'am, ustadzah"
"Who used to help you memorize, Nuha?"
"Yes.. Pakde and Bude"
"Ooh.. He is also very good to you. You should be grateful for that, Noah"
"Alhamdulillaahafemore. Nuha, Nuha wants to repay the kindness of Ustadzah Sonia and the kindness of Bude Pakde. But, what could Noah do for them, Ustadzah?"
"By diligent study donk", reply Ustadzah Sonia smirked sweetly.
"Study, huh?", complained Noah inwardly.
...****************...
Noah walked towards his favorite tree, the Angsana Tree. Started to sit and lean under his shade.
His stomach, it's starting to make a sound.
"Oh, I'm hungry" he lamented.
But that didn't make him lose. Noah repeated the memorization that had just been assisted by Ustadzah Sonia. Murajahah over and over again.
He realized his memorization had only been stored for a moment in the memory of his mind, so he had to continue to grieve tirelessly.
"Wa idzaa hadharal qismata uulul qur'aana wal yataamaa wal masaakinu falzukuhum.."
"Not qur'aana, not uulul qur'aana but uulul qurbaa. Uulul qurbaa wal yataamaa wal masaakinu fa(r)zukuuhum minhu wa quuluu lahum qaulaa ma'ruufa", I came and confirmed the recitation of Nuha to the end of the verse.
"Ustad!!"
