THORNS IN MARRIAGE
CHAPTER 55 - RITUALS

"Liana!... The problem of soul mate, sustenance and age is already there to regulate. He is the Creator, the All-Regulatory of the universe and its entirety! So is your soul mate, sustenance and age and Wak as well. We just sit back and pray our best. But for Jonathan and Jordan, it's not a common disease."

"What does Wak mean?" tanyaku.

"Someone deliberately sends a ball of witchcraft through your intermediary."

"Wow? Is that so?"

"It looks like your ex-husband and his new partner did all this!"

My feeling is not wrong! I feel like there's something weird about Jordan's mental health that's like schizophrenia! Because all this time their mental health condition is quite strong even though they convert. Because their family is a devout family.

"They have spiritual teachers who do not hesitate to kill opponents they do not like. They may even try to find your weaknesses through them. Wallahu a'lam bishowaf!"

"So, Jordan's condition is currently concerning because of the act of the crazy couple? Why could? Jordan was diligent in worship and never left prayer, Wak!"

"His omission is because of hubbul dunya. He turned out to have high hopes that long enough to be close and marry you. God let her off guard because she loved you too much, Liana!"

I took Wak Hardi's explanation seriously. Because I feel it's true.

"Then what should Liana do, Wak?"

"Liana! Wak wants to ask you back. It is the greatness of your heart to accept the divine will, the science of our ancestors that you can bring with you. Trust me, it won't burden you. Instead you will be easier to handle all the problems of your life and the crowd, Liana!"

"Geezer! Liana is a girl. Isn't Wak's son much more entitled than Liana? Or Wak Fatimah's son, Papa's second brother. There are men among them, right?"

"You are the chosen offspring. And that's absolute, Liana!"

I looked into Wak Hardi's eyes. Like there is a force of attraction like different sides of a magnet. But in the end I lost also against his gaze which contained such a powerful magical flow.

I lowered my head. Dare not to look anymore.

"Liana! Do you have any intention of taking revenge on your ex-husband?"

I just dared to look at Wak Hardi again. And I shaken my head hard.

There was no desire to go back to dealing with that jerk again.

I decided not to see him again. Especially for interaction in any case. Because this heart is sick.

"You can do anything to satisfy your heart if you have an ability beyond your limits!"

"Geezer! Liana felt unable to bring such a huge amount of trust! Sorry, Wak! Liana just wants the people around Liana to have no one hurt. Inwardly, Liana felt like a person who had an unlucky mark that made people around Liana get hurt!"

"For that, Wak wants you to inherit the science of our ancestral descendants. You can help others. Including treating Jordan and his family free from the shackles of black magic. It can also be a reward field because there will be many people helped, Liana!"

I'm silent. But something stuck in my heart.

"Sir!... It's not that I don't appreciate karuhun or an ancestor who's been so kind to give me great respect. But..."

"But you are your last chosen descendant, Liana! And you have obtained it without being able to resist because this is a mandate!"

I no longer dare to argue. The affirmation of Wak Hardi's last sentence was like a command. And finally I just kept quiet while breathing.

I'm nodding. Assented.

..............

I finally received the advice of Wak Hardi to take the knowledge of the hereditary family heritage of our ancestors after last night performing the tahajjud sunnah prayer.

Thursday night Friday is a ritual that I must go through for the acceptance of all knowledge.

I had insisted that the sciences were not arbitrary sciences and not everyone could just absorb it except people who have very high sensitivity such as indigo children or have a sixth sense.

It turns out that according to Wak Hardi, there are several choices including having a strong bloodline that can also absorb knowledge without having to bother studying for years.

There the heiress could develop her knowledge through the ritual of fasting forty days, fasting ni'is, fasting mutih even if it is necessary to do tapa for forty days. No interaction with the outside world, let alone watching television or opening a phone. Try not to lose ablution every day. Also obligatory worship should not be broken. So all the science is getting stuck in the body and flowing in the veins become a part of themselves until the offspring die.

It is said that my Wak, because I am the last lineage, I must do the tirakat all until the hereditary knowledge of the ancestors can be mastered to the maximum.

Since I'm a girl, my rituals are more in the process. So that only seven days and seven nights of fasting and giving remembrance to Allah Ta'ala at all times by mentioning His asthma.

I was placed in a small hut not far from Wak's house. During the ritual, I was also forbidden to leave the room except for the restroom that was available inside.

What a burden. It is fitting that my Papa refused and preferred to be an ordinary person without involving his children and wife. Apparently, this is how heavy it looks.

I'm kadung nyemplung. Because Uwak said, I can cure Jordan back to normal.

That was my main goal to go see him besides asking for advice about my life.

I reluctantly agreed to this deal.

Midnight flower bath. I used to think it was just a song. Turns out... Now I have to do it.

At ten o'clock the night after the completion of yasinan and also wirid asmaul husna, I was told to sleep and had to sleep. Because at exactly 00:00 Wak Wati will wake me up and take me to the wall. I had to take a clean shower, with flowers consisting of seven kinds. Of course with the heart continue to offer the asthma of God.

Although in my heart there is fear that this is an act of idolatry that Allah Ta'ala hates, but I can not just retreat. There's Jordan's face that makes me strong. Jordan must be healed. Can't keep going like that.

All this I do with my heart continues to rely and sincerely on the Creator of Nature.

Wak said, we're not deviating. It's an ancestral ritual. And must continue to be hereditary so that the heritage is not extinct eroded by the world era. Wallahus.

I-i understand. Some people believe that the homeland of my ancestors is a sacred land that has the stigma of the owner of great knowledge. All to maintain the stability and order of life of its people to love the earth more.

Many people forget the land. Do things without considering all the adab, manners and manners of life in the world. They are people who forget the custom. The taboo thing was made common. What is forbidden now seems to be a game. I myself can see and feel how much this world has been contaminated with ugliness.

Wak said, this is how we balance nature. Some people have a caromah. And it is pure Allah Ta'ala revealed directly through miracles or tirakat. The goal is to remind people of God's creation, if the path they choose or want to pass is wrong. And we have a mission to set it straight. Once the goals of the false sciences are studied and practiced, Wak Hardi said.

My heart grew stronger after finishing the flower bath ritual. I sat down and called basmalah, trying to let go of all the burdens of the mind in the head.

Tawaddu and tawaddu. Just remember Allah by continuing to recite without interruption until three o'clock at dawn and I eat sahur after Wak Wati provides it even with a simple side dish. Because I'm not allowed to eat good food during the ritual.
