After the Word Talak

The Extra Part 03

"Aqiqah Brother Sean's son also with our son," Adam walked towards Dikta with a small Deed.

Dikta put his second child whom he had not named on the bed and then sat down next to Adam.

"Mas, thank you, well" Dikta stared tearfully at Adam.

"For what, baby?" adam asked who made Dikta look at him seriously.

"Thank you for loving the Deed, even though the Deed is not the son of Mas Adam," replied the Dictation that made Adam tick.

"By the way what the hell are you, deck," Adam raised the body of the Deed high. "That's my son, and he'll remain Babah Adam's son for ever."

"Know no deck, there are eight responsibilities of a stepfather that Mas always take good care of," Adam stared at Dikta.

"What Mas?"

"First, Be kind to stepchildren" explains Adam. "Even though not a real father, a man is obliged to do and do good to his stepson as a form of good deeds to his wife, the mother of his stepson. Married a widow with children, it means she is also ready and obliged to be a good father for her child. Which in Islam if a man marries and raises a woman, then the daughter is also a mahram to him."

"Secondly, Follow support, if the biological father is dead, If the biological father of the stepson there is still a country responsible for the living and all the needs of the child is his own biological father. But if the child's biological father is gone, then the one who takes over the responsibility is the brother of the child's biological father, as well as his birth mother. But it would be a very noble deed if a stepfather also participated in supporting and providing for the needs of his stepson."

Adam paused while Dikta grew more and more attached to Adam. "The third is, Educate the good."

"After a couple divorced, there is generally the right to care for children falls on the mother and meanwhile the responsibility to provide for the father of the child. That responsibility will not be cut off. Even so, if the child follows his mother who eventually remarries, then if the child is not good, then the stepfather is also obliged to educate the child on the good. How to educate a bad boy for a stepfather is certainly the same as how to educate his own biological children."

Dikta nodded her head, she did not expect that her husband had this kind of knowledge.

"The responsibility of stepfathers in Islam to his stepson is also included in providing protection. As much as protecting his mother, the child also deserves protection from his stepfather. At least, a stepfather can provide protection in the form of security and comfort in his stepson," continued Adam explained.

"Where did this learn?" ask the Dikta who made Adam smile.

"Mas learned to be a good priest of the deck, did you?"

"Yes, Mum."

"Fifth is, To be a good role model for his stepson" Adam continued. "The responsibility of a stepfather in Islam is that he must also be a good role model for his stepson. Undergoing the role of a father, then he must be a good role model for his children, including his stepson. And it should not be a man who is a stepfather to set an example of bad manners and behavior to his stepson."

"Sixth, Giving a father love, a stepfather is also obliged to give a father's love to his stepson, especially if his stepson is an orphan whose real father is gone. And if a stepfather also has biological children, then it should be able to give the same attention and affection to his children. And what happens a lot in life, the cause of parents choosing love for their children because the child is not the blood of the flesh. And this is what I'm trying to convey to the deck,"

Dikta nodded her head she now understood what her husband's purpose was to treat the Deed well.
