When Destiny Says Another

When Destiny Says Another
Chapter 39 Pahala


Intention is a desire that is accompanied by actions that will be carried out in the future. Likewise with Reza who had intended to change himself for the better than Reza before. Reza promised herself to no longer be proud of herself, because she felt handsome and intelligent, and she also promised to be able to pray five times in time. It began when he returned home shortly after an encounter with his best friend Eka.


When she got home, as usual Reza first cleaned herself and changed her clothes. Then he remembered what Eka had discussed.


"Ah Masaa... "


"Ha Masaaa, ehh no"


"Oohhh yes HAMASAH"


Reza spoke to himself while tossing one hand up.


Reza chose to rest in his room, while waiting for the Ashar prayer time to arrive. Worried about falling asleep, Reza set an alarm on her phone to go off 20 minutes before the ashar prayer time arrived. It turns out that Reza was sleeping, because this morning he had just come out to meet Eka. Grateful Reza had set the alarm, so when the alarm went off Reza immediately got up and sat down first on the edge of the bed to gather his energy. Not long after that I heard the Ashar prayer. Reza hurried to take ablution and perform the ashar prayer.


After finishing the Ashar prayer Reza thanked him for being relieved to be able to do the ashar prayer in time. Likewise with Maghrib prayer, alhamdulillah successfully done at the beginning of time. For some reason, when he could do prayer at the beginning of time Reza felt happy himself.


After the completion of the maghrib prayer, Reza left the room to go to the family room. If in another family maybe the weekend is a family gathering time, different from in the Family Father Dimas. The house felt lonely, there was only Ka Resti and Bi Iyoy the housekeeper. Ka Rizki spends more weekends to gather with her friends after Monday to Friday to be faced with work affairs.


Dad Dimas who owns a hotel in anyer area, during weekends like this is usually a crowded hotel visited by domestic and foreign tourists, so Dad Dimas if Saturday and Sunday even busy taking care of the hotel, so the hotel, and Kania's mother today followed Dimas' father off to the hotel. The hotel owned by his father Reza is Father Dimas named 'Hotel Semilir', the hotel that has been established for 30 years is a relic hotel from his Grandfather Reza which was then continued by his father Reza, who was then followed by his father Reza, because he is an only child. This hotel used to be a small hotel, but since it was held by Father Dimas, Hotel Semilir became developed.


All rooms in the hotel are equipped with a table. All rooms have a private bathroom with free showers and toiletries, a flat-screen TV, and AC. Some rooms have a terrace. At the accommodation, all rooms include bed linens and towels.Halal breakfast is available every morning at Hotel Semilir .Staff at the hotel are available to advise at the 24-hour reception. The nearest airport is Soekarno-Hatta International Airport, about 103 km from the Hotel, and the accommodation offers a paid airport shuttle service.


For its Outdoor facilities, Hotel Semilir has picnic areas, beachfront, private beach areas, BBQ facilities, patios and gardens. Wi-Fi is available in the hotel's public areas and is free of charge. Entertainment and family services are available in the form of children's outdoor playground equipment and indoor play areas. Back when Rizky, Resti and Reza were kids they were happy when the weekend was invited to the Hotel, but over time one by one the children of Father Dimas refused when invited to the Hotel on the grounds of being bored.


There is Resti who is having dinner alone at the dinner table, then Reza also joined Resti who enjoyed his dinner. Bi Iyoy cooks a simple menu for dinner, because Bi Iyoy thinks only Resti and Reza will eat dinner. At the dinner table already served butter fried chicken and fried capcay. Reza then brewed the food onto his plate.


"From that time Kaka waitin really long de" said Ka Resti.


"So nanggung prayer maghrib first Ka" replied Reza.


"Oh yes.. Kaka forgot, just a little more done eating Kaka prayers maghribnya" said Ka Resti.


"Zaa.. Do not enter the room first yes, after this we watch yu make time" said Ka Resti.


"OKs... Reza wait in the family room ya Ka" replied Reza.


After finishing his dinner Resti rushed to his room to perform the maghrib prayer, while Reza headed straight to the family room while waiting for Resti to finish the maghrib prayer. Not long after that Resti appeared, then they chose the movie they wanted to watch.


"Za.please set yes, Kaka wants to go to the kitchen first take stock of snacks for friends to watch" said Resti.


"Siapp Ka's.. " Answer Reza.


Then Resti came back to the family room with potato chips, atomic nuts, quaci and bottled drinks for them to enjoy during the watch. They watch a horror film called 'The Boogeyman", the film tells the story of a psychiatrist, in which a man named Lester Billings tells the doctor about the 'murder' of his three young children, who are, and recount the events of the last few years.


The first and second children died in mysterious ways with no obvious cause, they were convulsing when left alone in their bedrooms. The only similarity was that the children were crying and shouting "Boogeyman!" before being left alone. When their bodies were found, the closet door was open, though Billings believed it had been closed.


Although only a fictional story, in fact watching streaming horror movies can still make someone feel a real fear. The slick acting skills of the actors, coupled with mysterious storylines and dramatic sound effects, succeeded in making Resti and Reza feel tired in their seats. Even Resti holds a pillow, which he will use to cover his face if there is a horror scene that he thinks is very terrible.


Horror genre films often present jump-scare or the emergence of scenes that are shocking and seem sudden. It is at this moment of shock that the blood flow towards the heart will increase and cause a person's heart to beat faster. The faster the heartbeat, the more oxygen is needed. Therefore, when a person's heart beats violently, then they will also breathe faster and appear to be wheezing. Even some scenes managed to make Resti scream loudly, so Reza who was next to him was surprised not because of the horror scene in the film, but surprised because of Resti's gripping scream.


"Whaaaaaa....." Shouted Ka Resti while watching the horror scene that made him tense and goosebumps.


Until Bi Iyoy who was getting clean in the kitchen ran in a hurry to find the source of the sound, worried that there was nothing like Resti, either, and after seeing Bi Iyoy turned out Resti shouted - yelled because he was watching a horror film finally Bi Iyoy back again. Resti had invited Bi Iyoy to follow the watch but Bi Iyoy refused.


"Neng Resti's... Aunty was shocked, listen Neng shouted, kirain Neng why-napa, ehhh.... The link again watching the horror pelm" said Bi Iyoy.


"Heheheh... Sorry Bi, the fun of the film, here Bi follow-sinih watch yuu let's add the audience's rame" Take Resti to Bi Iyoy.


"IIiiihhhh ...ogah Aunty mah watch the horror pelm that is, nakut-nakutin yourself. Yes, I've come back to the back again" said Bi Iyoy.


"Yes... Yes" replied Resti while his eyes remained asian staring at the television.


Because of the asiik with what was watched and the sound of television was tightened so that the horror effect was felt, so that the sound of Isya prayer adhan was not heard, he said, and Reza did not look at the wall clock from earlier because it was late to enjoy the film story. So Reza is not aware if it is time to pray.


The duration of the film is about 1 hour and 38 minutes. They started watching around 7 a.m., and now when the movie is done it's half-nine. Reza just realized there was something he was missing. He forgot the promise to himself to pray five times in time. Reza then hit his own forehead, because he had ignored his promise.


After the television turned off, Resti and Reza rushed into their respective rooms as it was already night. Reza rushed to take ablution and immediately performed Isha Prayer.


"Oh Allah tomorrow hopefully I can pray five times in time" Reza told himself.


After the completion of the prayer, Reza set an alarm for the morning prayer so that it can be done on time. Reza went to bed so that tomorrow morning he was not sleepy.


Tiiiiitut....


Tiiiiitut...


Tiiitut...


The alarm on Reza's phone had sounded from 20 minutes before entering the dawn prayer time, but it turns out the owner of the phone did not hear his alarm sound, he remained sound asleep. And again Reza woke up as usual at 05.30, when Reza woke up immediately surprised himself, because he realized something was wrong, he was guilty of not keeping his own promise. So Reza rushed to take ablution and perform dawn prayers. Then after performing the morning prayer that is not up to 5 minutes he did, Reza continued to take a morning shower and wear his school uniform.


***


Today after attending class, Riska and Zia after bada dhuhur asked Ms. Ros a math teacher at the school to practice math problems, in preparation for the Math Olympiad Competition. When the break time arrives, while waiting for the reverberating Adzan, Riska chooses to eat the provisions first. Mama Dinda made Spaghetti Bolognese and Riska's favorite French fries. Not to forget Mama Dinda brought her provisions all in two, because she knew Riska and Zia were friends. Spaghetti bolognese is a typical Italian pasta dish with additional sauce from tomato paste, minced beef, and other condiments. The taste of fresh and savory sour bolognese pasta, sometimes added parmesan cheese to strengthen the taste. Zia actually did not like the original Italian food, but if Mama Dinda who made it Zia suddenly became like. While enjoying the spaghetti and potatoes they both also while chatting.


"Riss... Mama Dinda cook what the hell is delicious results of cooking? " Task Zia.


"Hmmm.... What yeah??? Cook water kali Zi, it's fresh water, hihihiiii" replied Riska while chuckling.


"Yaaah..water is drunk Ris not eaten" said Zia, hearing Riska's answer.


"Iyaaaa, but we both entered Zi's mouth" Riska replied with a chuckle.


Not long after, the sound of the dhuhur prayer rang Riska and Zia rushed to the school musholla. While walking in the hallway of the school Riska saw that Eka and Reza had walked far ahead of them, Riska hoped that Reza's step was towards the musholla. Without Riska guessing, it turns out that Reza's steps are headed toward musholla. Riska does not know that Reza is learning to change himself for the better. Riska rounded her eyes perfectly not believing what she saw.


"God, Reza wants to change" Eka said in her heart.


While walking in the hallway, Eka slowly also while giving advice to Reza.


" Bro, the best shaf for men is the front one, and the worst male shaf is the back one. While the best shaf for women is the last, and as bad as the female shaf is the front." Eka.


"Shaf?? " Tanya Reza's.


"Yes, Shaf is a line of worshipers in congregational prayer" Eka replied.


"Oooooo... If the prayer line I know Ka" Reza said with a smile.


Then when he arrived at the school musholla, they both took ablution first and took his shaf. Reza also took the front shaf beside Eka.


"Ehhhh why haven't Iqomah the Cunguk prayed??? What prayers is he?? Yes already follow me" said Reza while following what Eka did while his eyes slightly glanced at Eka because of worry about the wrong number of rakaatnya.


After that, it was not long before Iqomah's voice was heard. Iqomah is a call or call for pilgrims to immediately stand up to start congregational prayer. In general, iqomah is intended for those who are already inside the mosque or musholla.


After completing the prayer dhuhur congregated, after Reza salam looked towards Eka. Eka was holding both her hands.


"That's what she is" Reza said in her heart.


When finished praying. Reza immediately went to put on his shoes, as he looked to the side he did not see Eka. Then Reza looked into the musholla.


"Ehhhh where is Cunguk one"


"Haaaaa???? Prayer???? What other prayers???? " Reza said in his heart while shrinking his forehead. Then Reza chose to put on her shoes immediately while waiting for Eka to finish. After Eka finished, the two of them then rushed after Ardi and Rais who were already in the cafeteria.


"Waaahhh bright face is already praying" said Ardi.


"Buruan sholat.. " Said Reza.


"Entar deh nanggung finish eating. Batagor first, it's good if the stomach is full, so it sounds no stomach when praying, hehehe" replied Ardi.


Then Ardi and Rais after spending batagor and iced tea, they continued to perform dhuhur prayer. Reza and Eka choose to order food in the cafeteria. Eka ordered chicken noodles and mineral water, while Reza ordered meatballs and melon juice. While eating, Reza asked Eka something.


"Ka.... It wasn't iqomah yet, but how did you pray first? " Tanya Reza was curious.


"Haha... Zaa... Za is called tahiyatul prayer mosque" Eka replied.


"Tahiyatul mosque?? " Task Reza again because she doesn't understand.


"Yes, tahiyatul mosque can be interpreted as praying sunnah in order to respect the mosque. While terminology means, the sunnah prayer is done when someone enters the mosque and wants to stay silent in it" Eka replied.


"The number of four rakaats? " Tanya Reza's.


" Two rakaat Za" answered Eka.


"Laaah I saw four rakaats" Reza said.


"When do you watch out? Didn't you also pray? What did you pray about? " Eka nanya back to Reza.


"I'll see it from the side. Nga know what I pray too, see you pray yes I follow the prayer, because I think the prayer dhuhur ehhhhhhh tunya pas iqomah I just ngeuh it is not the prayer dhuhur ya, hehehe" Reza answered while scratching her non-itchy hair.


"Za after the tahiyatul prayer of the mosque, I was praying qobliyah dhuhur, it was a sunnah prayer that was done as much as two or four rakaat before the fardu dhuhur prayer"


" After the dhuhur prayer earlier I prayed badiyah dhuhur"


" The primacy of the qobliyah and badiyah sunnah prayers is kept away from the fire of hell, as has been the history of Imam At-Tirmidhi 'The people who guard the four rakaats before the dhuhr and the four rakaats after him, as well as the tradition of Imam At-Tirmidhi, then Allah forbade him from the punishment of hell" Eka answered.


"Oooooo-o... Get the Ka's teaching"


"But so long yes pray, tentar cape nih feet" said Reza spirit gets new knowledge from his best friend.


"Better old and cape but berahala Za"


" The reward is reward for the servants of God who do good deeds and things that are sincere. One's own reward goes hand in hand with one's good charity. A servant who does charity, which is taught in the Quran and the hadith, gets a good reward or reward from Allah" Eka said.


"Yes, calm down is important the spirit to learn. Now pray five times on time first. How was the morning prayer, on time right bro? " Task Eka.


" mmm... Alhamdulillah" replied Reza while scratching his forehead.


"Alhamdulillah be happy if you have a sohib kayak gini" said Eka.


" sat.....Alhamdulillah was praying at dawn, at 05:30" replied Reza with a small smile.


"Zaaaa... Do not repeat again yes, it will become a habit" said Eka.


"Yes... Yes promise... Hopefully yes" replied Reza while grinning.


"Bismillah... I should" Eka said.


Then after finishing his food and drinks, Eka returned to his class, while Reza had to immediately go to the teacher's room because he had to accompany Riska and Zia to practice math problems.


After finishing the prayer of Dhuhur Riska and Zia chose to directly meet with Mother Ros in the Teacher Room. Riska and Zia are both good at math, but Riska's way of calculating and finding math answers is faster than Zia's. Reza who was asked by Ros's mother to accompany Riska and Zia certainly could not refuse the task, even if asked he was temporarily lazy to meet Riska first. The heart still hurts, leaving cuts but the feeling is not in line with the heart that always wants to meet Riska.
