My breath still feels heavy, lucky to be present among us. My mother came home angry. Sekar swept and sided with all the debris from the earthen mail that I burned. I see Sekar didn't ask anything. I got to Maghrib's time, I said I'll tell you what happened. That's how Sekar, he will not ask before I myself tell my complaint if I am in a rage. She was a wife who reminded me of Sayyidah Khadijah, when the Prophet returned from his cave. At that time the Prophet met the angel Gabriel. The Prophet was very frightened and fell down while running home. Arriving home, His Majesty asked to be enveloped by Sayyidah Khadijah.
Yes, Sayyidah Khadijah is a strong wife figure. Not physically strong. Or a powerful affair as defined by the wife of today, where the strong wife is the wife who can lift gallons by herself, the wife who can pickle her own rice, the wife who can change the light bulb by herself. For me a strong wife is one who has a strong heart like Sayyidah Khadijah. How not to be strong, when her husband was frightened and panicked. She just calmly fulfilled her husband's wishes, she shrouded the husband. Waiting until her husband calmed down and told himself about the matter made His Majesty feel afraid. Only the wife who has a strong heart not to panic, not immediately kepo will be the content of the husband's heart when the husband himself is at war with his own heart.
This is what makes maybe a lot of men looking for a sense of comfort, even some handsome and also rich artist or his beautiful wife under the pretext of no comfort to have to separate. Ah, I'm grateful. Always give me comfort. While on the way to the house of Mr. Le Gio I accidentally stopped at a satay stall, I choose a place in the corner of the stall so that I can freely speak.
We sat down, Sekar seemed to understand I was wanting to talk while enjoying the beautiful moonlight. When I have spent one portion, I am still waiting for Sekar to spend the portion. It seems he has trouble spending his time.
“Ndak out?” Ask me.
“Mas ndak said to stop by earlier, still feel full. But how to be redundant if discarded.” Her speech.
Finally I took a spoon on his plate, I craved a few slices of it. Seemed to smile. Gently rub his finger on the corner of my lips because there is residual satay seasoning attached.
“It's like we're dating..” Whisper me.
She blushed in embarrassment and enjoyed the warm tea we ordered. I hardly ever drink ice. So do not be surprised at our home there is no ice water or ice blocks in the freezer. I don't like ice either. I finally told Sekar my heart.
“Dik, what is the solution so that mom does not sell her garden. Last afternoon I asked for a land letter for sale.” I said while enjoying the warm.
“What does it make mas?” Ask Sekar while holding the cup of his.
“Create a yadi wedding event and make ngunduh mantu, how do you think... mas confused...” Say me slowly.
“Mas must have been very emotional until it burned the letter.” Sekar.
“Mother if it is like that just want to give up, but mas so like an ungodly child.. although actually mas ndak really so same mother...” Say I slowly.
“Means?” Ask Sekar curiously
I also told him that 4 months ago there was a free land letter making program from the government or prona. And I registered the mother's land, because seeing Yani want to borrow a bank and often jammed, I also made the land letter in my name, then actually the land letter in the form of a Certificate already exists I keep.
“So that burned it?” Ask Sekar curiously.
“The photocopy, the letter is now a form of certificate. Oya, do we borrow the bank, take the KUR. Yesterday Yani's time file took the bank hasn't been taken. So we can continue to take the cur, reportedly the interest rate is very small now dik.” Say to Sekar.
“I doubt if you want to take the bank, if yesterday I did not mind because Yani and her husband who use. But this is the mas that will use.” Remember Sekar.
Just say what I said. We were only briefly at Mr. Gio's residence. We went to the cottage. 10 O'clock in the evening is a good time to visit the cottage, because this is when Umi Ayu and Kyai Damar usually sit in the foyer. They will enjoy their free time or receive guests who have needs. We entered and were greeted by Umi Ayu. There were three men and one woman. I sat in the corner, near Kyai Rohim and the three men who seemed to have been from earlier. Sitting near Umi Ayu. Not long before the four people say goodbye, retreat. Kyai Damar opened the coffee. Umi Ayu seemed to invite Sekar to come closer to us. I don't know why I saw a couple who respected people in our village so happy when we came.
“Where is kang?” Kyai Damar asked as she opened the jar of fried beans in front of him. Seemed to be taken by a handful by Kyai Damar and he enjoyed it.
“From Mr Le's home, Yai.” Answer me.
“Bi, the day after the same Mbak Sekar how?” Umi Ayu asked as she looked at her husband.
“Lah, asked first. Mbak Sekar bothered what ga?” Ask Kyai Damar.
“Mboten bi, kulo and Sekar,boten busy... Enten nopo Yai?” Said I quickly, I strongly agree if I or Sekar asked for help by Umi Siti. How not to be happy, with the limitations of science can still crumble Kyai and Bu Nyai. At this time Me and Sekar just want to use our age for the things that make God pleased us, one of them loves his lover. Yes, the Ulama is the lover of God. To me, Umi Ayu and Kyai Damar are Ulamas that God loves. Sekar even often tells if he saw there are similarities between Umi Ayu and Umi Laila. Equally bringing Islam is not scary for those who still can not practice their sharia, but slowly but surely the person will change because of the tenderness of a husband and wife who I now consider a teacher.
“The day there was a study in Singasono District. His son Mbah Yai Sodiq. Some pilgrims will ride in the car, but my wife must wait for there to be a santri guardian who wants to come in the morning tomorrow, so can not go with the congregation. Lah if not go, his wong Umi ngajak.” Kyai Damar. I also said if Sekar can deliver. After talking for a moment I also expressed what became my wedge. About the plan to borrow a bank for Yadi's needs as well as the full plan I will use to buy fertilizer for oil palm plantations.
“So about if you borrow a bank for how Yai,” ask me to worry.
Kyai Damar enjoyed a layer of cake on a plate close to him.
“From the past this is still a debate Kang, while indeed the three opinions in our country to borrow money in this bank are those who think halal, haram and syubhat (heti-cautious). Because the bank interest law is still the purpose of borrowing the bank again. For productive purposes or for consumer purposes. If the scholars agree that riba is haram." Kyai Damar.
This is what I like to sit with knowledge people, just chatting and coffee but getting knowledge. Even without us knowing, Kyai Damar actually told if the Bank is now different from the bank it used to be.
“Well, people used to borrow bank money because they paid interest so they could not eat. It's different now. People who borrow a bank must have property in collateral. Logically, people borrow banks that people can afford. Lah try you do not have a land letter or have a valuable thing or there is a selling point directly to the bank for minjam. It doesn't have to be conventional." Kyai damar.
“So difficult we live in the end of this Age kang, because we must be involved with a situation that did not occur in the time of the Prophet. While we live it, the place asks yes the scholars. Then we can not blame the scholars who differ in opinion, we just want to follow which scholars? And most importantly we must follow the scholars whose science is directly connected to the Prophet.” Umi Ayu Imbuh.
“Yes, for example, the time of the Prophet there was only a camel, there was no plane yes Mi, and now we take the hajj can not go directly there by plane to hajj, must go through services or intermediaries where one of them bank.” Said Sekar adding about the bank.
Ah, I have dreams of going on Hajj with Sekar. Tomorrow I will ask about Hajj savings as well as ask for KUR loans. Because I really need an injection of funds for the Palm plantation.
“Lah yes, in the past it was our people if they want to ride the Hajj must sell cows up to a dozen tails to be able to ride the hajj.. Now here just sell 4-5 cows can already ride the hajj, this is so inget masail batsul first in java. The case of the bank interest law was.. “ Said Kyai Damar who was one of the figures or scholars who was given the mandate to be one of the heads of a branch of a fitness organization.
Tonight I finally have a solution, at least I will hold a ghostly event but not with the way my mother wants, I have a concept of an event that I hope can be my da'wah field, he said, I hope to be a pioneer. Now, he is the pioneer of this concept. He gave me that idea on the bike, while heading to Kyai Damar boarding school.
‘Bismilah.. the intention of superstitious shiar.. make it easy to Allah..’ I have the dignity to be given the ease to please the mother, without having to sell the mother's land, and I can shiar in my village also introduce my kyai in this village.
