The Love of Habib
Chapters 4.10
"Before we had time to hear if you guys were planning to skip the Isya prayer."
Dira and Gisel instantly forget how to breathe when they hear the words of Habib Khalid. In their hearts they wondered if their lives were unlucky because every time they planned something or wanted to do something, Habib Khalid happened to find them. Forget how to escape from this place because with the existence of the thorny rose master here, all their dreams of escaping from the boarding house were mere wishful thinking. Just look now, in one day they were reprimanded, scolded, and had received bitter punishment in the soup kitchen. Not to mention tomorrow there is the main punishment, which is washing the bathroom of the princess dormitory. Honestly, they immediately forgot how to complain on this remote.
"Sorry, habib may have misheard." Aish, the girl who made the most sense among the three of them immediately denied.
"Certainly, habib. We never talk about it." Said Dira hurriedly speaking.
Habib Khalid smiled gently without noticing the strange expressions of the people behind him. They did not hear what these three santriwati were talking about because they had just come. But they believed what habib Khalid had just said because he could not possibly lie or sound wrong.
Just this looks a little strange because they are a bit surprised to see there are three naughty santriwati who plan to skip prayer. Isn't that rare in boarding schools and particularly taboo?
"Maybe, I may have heard it wrong. Prayer is the pillar of religion, our connection with the Creator so as a servant who tries to continue to improve, we should not leave it even if only missed one time. In our boarding house" Habib Khalid paused his words for a moment. Sweeping his gaze looked at the three of them with a smile that slowly disappeared little by little from his lips.
"People who accidentally miss prayer will be fined so many rupiahs as sanctions but another case with people who deliberately miss prayer. Here they will be dried in the sun all day regardless of how the tricks of the sun. This sanction aims to make them reflect on the mistakes made and imagine how hot the torment of hell through the tricks of sunlight. Daylight sunlight alone is very burning and hot, especially when faced with real hellfire in the hereafter, naudzubillah, the heat is really immeasurable. Do you not want to feel the pain and heat of God's punishment?" Habib Khalid spoke in a very calm tone to the three of them.
The three of them were stunned - no, perhaps more precisely the ones who felt the most fear here were Dira and Gisel. As soon as they begin to remember the sins they have committed in this life and all the prayers that have been passed deliberately, it is very frightening. They did not dare to imagine themselves inside the furnace of hellfire. For all Muslims, hell is as low a place and as low as a place. Until whoever goes in there
"If we bask all day in the sun our skin becomes charred." Dira's complaint was suddenly diverted.
Gisel's forehead shriveled bitterly, "For the sake of skin care, I even willingly spend my savings every month. So where am I supposed to bask in the sun?" Said Gisel goiter, he did not want to imagine all his treatments to be in vain.
Hey, for the sake of being beautiful and kinclong, the two of them often go to Benung's beauty clinic which is said to be the most advanced beauty clinic in their prosperous country. Getting in there is no kidding. They had to reach into the pockets of nearly 100 million once a treatment!
"Ho'oh's. By the way in this city there's a Benung's clinic, isn't it? If I have to stop by." Ask Dira to Gisel.
"less to know. I'm here for the first time."
"It's a pity that there's none, even if it's expensive but the results are really good." Pushing Dira bitter.
While they were busy chatting, Aish who was beside them quietly rubbed the top of her nose awkwardly. These two friends really did not feel any sense of crisis. But clearly habib Khalid was reminding them generously not to do the plan again so that they would not get any other punishment.
So habib Khalid should have heard the talk of Dira and Gisel. Inner Aish guessed.
"We don't want to, habib. We dare not think of God's punishment." Aish said awkwardly.
Should he be grateful for being generously reminded?
"good. You guys just got out of the soup kitchen after finishing the sentence. Then the three of you should not have prayed Isya, right?" Habib Khalid said with a big smile on his face.
Aish's mouth twitched immediately.
"Certainly, habib. After this we will directly take ablution water and pray in the dormitory." Said Aish somehow feeling exhausted from being investigated continuously by habib Khalid.
"Then return immediately before your dormitory gates are locked." Habib Khalid reminded.
Aish and the other two instantly nodded their heads compactly. Saying greetings to habib Khalid and the others, Dira and Gisel immediately turned their steps as fast as they could as if they were avoiding a dangerous plague.
"Wait." Danis' voice stopped the three of them.
