The Heart of Old Menjakaka
206. Islamic KTP
"Excuse me, sir, may I ask you something?" tian asked a middle-aged man with a white beard who was about to enter the Mosque. He wears white Koko, black sarong and black peci. The shawl is attached to the left shoulder.
The man looked towards Tian. "Can you ask me what, sir?"
"Can I pray in this mosque?" Tian looked around. There are quite a lot of people who flock to go in there to perform congregational prayers.
"Of course, anyone can follow as long as Islam. The father of Islam, right?"
Tian nodded quickly. "Yes, I'm Muslim. But unfortunately it's just KTP."
"No problem, come on in." The man embraces Tian's shoulder and invites him inside. Tian quickly opened his shoes and they entered together.
"I can't actually recite the prayer either, sir. How later? Will my prayers be accepted?"
"If we leave it to God, the most important thing is intention. Ayok ... I invite you to take water wudhu." The man stepped up, taking Tian on the spot to fetch some ablution water.
He not only taught his movements, but also do'a-do'a. It felt difficult at first, but Tian continued to repeat until he could read the intention of ablution and finished ablution.
When they finished, they headed to the saf prayer line. There were 20 people counted with them. And Tian is in the back saf.
"My father taught the intention reading first, then just follow the priest's movements. Later if the prayer is finished .. then we learn the whole thing," explained the man.
If taught the whole movement and the reading for now can not, because the time mepet and coincidentally the man is the imam in the mosque.
Tian simply obeyed what was said. Regarding the accepted or not of the recent affairs, the most important thing is that he has an intention.
In addition, Tian also wanted to pray to the creator. He begged for forgiveness for all the sins he committed.
'Oh Allah .. Please forgive me, forgive all the sins I have committed, ' Tian said in his heart. Both of his palms were raised, he sat cross-legged facing the qibla. That do'a he prays after praying.
'I know .. Everything I do is sinful and heinous. But now ... I want to repent.'
'Please help me, God. Help me get through everything.' Tian's eyeballs glazed over and slowly his tears fell down his cheeks.
'I also want to ask you to give the most beautiful place to Kak Danu. Forgive all the sins he had in the world. He is my greatest, kind and loving brother. And I love him, O God.'
'Please take care of Fira and her contents. However, the baby in her womb is my son, O God. And hopefully ...the divorce she wants is the best path for both of us.'
'And last for Nissa. Please ... Please keep him happy. She is a perfect woman and does not deserve to be hurt. If indeed he is not my soul mate .. please make him my soul mate, O Allah.'
'Amin, amen yes rabbal alamin.' Tian rubbed his face, then sighed with relief.
After meeting Danu, praying and praying, some of the burden in his life felt a little lost.

Tian arrived at his home the night after Isya, probably around 8 p.m. He was taught the intention and movement of praying to the bearded man for quite a long time. Until he also prayed there Magrib and Isha.
It was still not very smooth, but the bearded Father gave a prayer guide book to Tian. So that he can learn by himself at home.
Apparently, Tian himself forgot. If he has an appointment at 5 pm with Thomi who all come with catfish seeds and equipment to raise him.
As a result, the man had been waiting in his pick-up car. Wanting to enter was not brave, even though in Tian's own house there was no security guard and the gate was not locked.
"Where have you been, Ti? Mushroom I know, wait for you," muttered Thomi who just got out of his pick-up car. He shook his waist looking at Tian who was approaching him in the courtyard of the house.
"What problems? Better get me to your pool first, it's been cleaned yet? The length of the catfish seedlings in the box can die, Ti."
"Relope. I'm taking it." Tian moved his hand, then stepped forward to take Thomi to the backyard.
Two of Thomi's men who came along with him also followed them, while carrying a box, 30 kg of catfish feed and a bottle of vitamins for catfish.
The Tian swimming pool was quite spacious and clean. Because once every 2 days is always cleaned, even though it is not used once.
One large box containing 5000 catfish measuring 5-7 cm was directly input into there. Tian who saw it suddenly glared, because he did not expect if the sebox only contained a lot.
"Is there a small bucket that fits 1 kilo? I taught her how to love her to eat, Ti," Thomi said.
"Some, wait a minute, I'll take it." Tian nodded, then entered the house through the back door.
Thomi not only taught her to feed catfish from pellets, but also to provide vitamins. Don't forget to teach some things that Tian didn't know.
"Hopefully he'll grow up fast, let's harvest fast and make money" Thomi said, staring at some catfish that were so greedy to eat.
"Amin, hopefully. So what's the total capital, Thom? How much money did I borrow?"
Thomi reached into her pants pocket, then gave her a payday note containing the details of everything. The prices could be seen by Tian himself and the total of 3,100,000 was already on postage.
"That's your main capital, the note should not be thrown away, stored. Let the harvest later you can see how much luck," said Thomi. Tian nodded with a smile.
"It's not big, yeah, Thom. Not ten million."
"Yes. But make no mistake, the seeds, feed and vitamins I brought were superior, good quality. InshaAllah .. 3 or 4 months, your catfish can harvest."
"Amin, I hope. But where do you want to sell it, Thom? To you too?"
"It's easy, I also have acquaintances who used to buy catfish crops."
"Oh, good then. So what's my total debt to you?"
"1 million flowers 20% to 1 million 200 thousand. So if 3.1 becomes 3 million 700 grand, Ti."
"It's a niggling thing to do, right?"
"Say it later when it's harvest."
"Oh so. Yes, let's go in the house first. We'll have a coffee first," Tian said as he hugged Thomi's shoulder.
"My men are coming too?"
"Yes come along, we copy together. I want to confide too."
They went into the house together, Tian made four cups of black coffee and he also told me about what had happened. All right, well, Thomi's time wanted to help her find a job.
"If there is no vacancy in my office, Ti. All positions are full."
"If there is no elsewhere? Maybe your acquaintance or your business partner?" tian asked who was sitting next to him, sipping on the still steamy coffee.
"I think it's in the office of my business partner who's looking for a CEO. But the owner of his office who, yes, his name ...." Thomi scratched her head and fell silent for a moment, trying to remember. "If it's not wrong, it's called Rizky. Ah, Mr. Rizky Gumelang, Ti!" it was exciting when I remembered.
...Do you know who Rizky Gumelang is? 🤔...
