The Return of the Beloved
Chapters 113. Leon-Leona's Marriage and Papa David's Advice


Today is Leon and Leona's wedding day. The wedding was held at a star hotel in the city.


The Leona family from Bali came all and now has mingled with the Leon family. Out of this woman's side can only resign because the wedding was held in accordance with the teachings of Islam because Leona has become a convert in contrast to her own non-Muslim family.


The wedding ceremony opened with an MC greeting the guests who attended followed by the recitation of the holy verse of the Qur'an from a famous Qori in the city.


After the recitation of the holy verse of the Qur'an is completed, it is now continued with a welcoming event from the family of the two brides.


The first greeting, performed by the groom. Leon's father immediately expressed his welcome for the presence of the family of the bride who had come all the way to the place. Leon's father also expressed his gratitude that his son's proposal had been welcomed by Leona's family.


The second greeting from the bride in which case Leona's father deputized to Mr. David, the father of Vierdo. Yes the bride did depart from the Vierdo residence and the man and his family played the Leona family as well.


The marriage guardian has also given Leona's father to the pak penghulu.


After the reception was completed there was held Ulimatul ur'sy event for the male invited guests whose place was separate from the female invited guests. The wedding sermon is the next event then connected with the wedding ceremony. Pak Penghulu also said the phrase ijab and answered with the phrase qabul from Leon.


"How are the witnesses, legitimate?"


"Well." Right."


"Well." Right."


"Well." Right."


"Alhamdulillah." People who attended the wedding ceremony were grateful because the event was quite successful. The chief also led the prayer.


After the prayer reading was over Leon pinned the wedding ring on Leona's ring finger and Leona put the wedding ring back on Leon's ring finger. As Leon kissed Leona on the forehead there were cheers from all the invited guests.


"It's a signature first." The gentleman asked Leon and Leona to sign the documents. The two brides did what they were asked to do before they finally made a condolence to the parents of the two brides.


Leona's father and mother really gave Leona to her husband to be well taken care of because Leona could be said to have no family in the city where Leon lived. What Leona has in the city is her best friend's family who already consider Leon as part of their family.


"Leon, you take good care of him, don't hurt him. You know not, just because you want to be able to live with you he has taken a big decision in his life to become a convert, whereas you know yourself not his family is a priest family. Take care of his heart and do not let you make him disappointed because if he is disappointed you also make an uncle who has been supporting you come disappointed," advised Papa David accompanied by a nod from Vierdo.


"That's Leon, don't waste Leona's sacrifice."


"Surely Uncle, it must be Vir. God willing I will hold the mandate from you and also from Leona's parents. I'll keep Leona's body and heart until death do us part."


The words of Leon were so steady that Leona's parents could breathe a sigh of relief and could release her daughter into Leon's arms.


"May you always be bestowed with the goodness of the Most High God" Leona's father said.


"Thank you Pa for your prayers and thank you for trusting Leona in me, too" Leon said.
