Bound Other Love

Episodes 122. The final resting place

Carnations cry while hugging Nadia, Children also join in crying, it seems they feel the sorrow of their parents.

Satya hands over her phone to Mang Ujang in order to contact all the family and also Radit. While Kak Nina, Nadia's only sister in America has been contacted by Satya, but she can not attend because she is waiting for delivery.

Sister Nina handed over all the funeral business to Satya, she was sincere with the fate of her sister's life. When Nadia was sentenced to her age doctor soon, she asked that the brother be sincere and willing to forgive himself and Satya because the fate of the household they lived was already a scenario from God.

After contacting Radit Mang Ujang directly contact the neighbors who usually take care of the maintenance of the body and who dig the grave.

The neighbors have started to arrive to say condolences while helping to clean up the room that will be used to put the body because the study in the form of tahlilan will be held before the corpse is bathed.

Sister, Mama Tiara, Papa Chandra and Tirta as well as the servants at the grandfather's house have arrived. Then Mama hugged Satya and said, "Patience yes son, we must sincerely let go of Nadia. It's destiny for all who live, sooner or later we'll all catch up."

Grandfather, Papa and Tirta alternately embraced Satya to provide support for Nadia's departure. While Carnation sat beside the corpse with Mama and the other neighbors.

Not long after, Radit, Tina and a few employees came. Radit hugged Satya, his heart just as broken as Satya's. However, Nadia once had a special place in Radit's heart.

Tina understands Radit's feelings, and she invites Radit to pilgrimage, see and pray for Nadia's late home before she is bathed.

Radit shed tears, but he hurriedly wiped them away before others felt suspicious of his attitude. Tina holds Radit's shoulder, to give the spirit that there is still a wife who loves and needs him in this world.

All the families, relatives and neighbors had gathered, they also began to teach, read Yasin's letter, tahtim, tahlil along with the prayer offered by an ustadz.

After finishing teaching, Nadia's body was immediately bathed by Bilal's corpse of the woman who used to bathe the body. Anye, Mama and Bibi and Satya also bathe.

About the problem of the husband can participate in bathing the corpse of the wife? This has been said by Imam Nawawi in his book Raudhatut Thalibin as follows;

الأصل أن يغسل الرجال الرجال والنساء النساء …….والنساء أولى بغسل المرأة بكل حال

...“Basically, men bathe the bodies of men and women bathe the bodies of women. Women more main bathing women in all conditions.”...

Furthermore, in the book of Raudhatut Thalibin mentioned that for men are allowed to bathe the bodies of different types if there are causes that are allowed.

Among the permissible reasons is the existence of a marriage relationship or as a husband and wife. Therefore, the husband can bathe the body of the wife or vice versa, the wife can bathe the body of the husband.

وليس للرجل غسل المرأة إلا لأحد أسباب ثلاثة أحدها الزوجية فله غسل زوجته المسلمة والذمية ولها غسله

“It is not permissible for men to bathe the bodies of women except for the following three reasons. First, because of the relationship between husband and wife. So the husband can bathe the body of his wife, also the wife can bathe the body of her husband........."

So in conclusion the body of the woman who has the right to bathe her is her husband, women who still have family ties, female neighbors, mahram men (his biological children).

If the body is still small (under the age of 7 years), then it can be bathed both by women and men.

Although the body bathing Nadia is the family and husband who is entitled to it, still the aurat section must remain closed.

Therefore, before the body was bathed they had prepared a piece of cloth to cover the aurat so that it was awake from others who might see it.

The process of bathing the body was completed, followed by the process of memorization, then continued with family pilgrimage before the body was sholatan.

Satya kissed Nadia for the last time, she could not help but cry as her face touched Nadia's cold, stiff cheek. The beautiful and kind woman who had been with him for many years was now stiffened, wrapped only in a white cloth that would soon wrap around and cover her entire face.

After reading the do'a, Satya retreated while wiping away her tears and continued by Anyelir, Grandpa, Mama, Radit, and Tina.

When it was Tirta's turn, he also could not hold back the tears, Sister-in-law who had also been a woman he loved until she had been hostile to Satya. But Tirta finally realized that love could not be forced.

Their cries broke, but they were only limited to crying, to reduce the burden of sadness in the heart, without lamenting because the law of mourning the body is haram.

As stated in the book of Tanqil al-Qaul, Shaykh Nawawi al-Bantani explained that Imam Nawawi said in his book entitled Al-Adzkar, “Know, weep over the body in a very loud voice according to the cleric, '''Al-Adzkar said, law haram. When crying over a corpse without lamentation, it is not a problem.”

And in a hadith from Umar ibn Khattab RA, he said if the Prophet said, "A corpse will be punished in his grave for being mourned." In another account, "As long as he is mourned." (HR Muttafaq 'Alaih)

Nadia's body has now been sealed with a shroud and is ready to be sholatan, which will be the priest of the funeral prayer is Satya himself.

Barisan shaf pray was already regular sign of prayer the corpse will soon be started according to its pillars, namely

Intention

Stand up

Read al-Fatihah's letter

Reading Sholawat

Praying for bodies

After finishing praying, now comes the time to deliver the body to the final resting place, according to Nadia's request, which is in the flower garden next to her house.

Satya, Tirta, Radit and Mang Ujang were helped by several neighbors to lift Nadia's body with a coffin that had been prepared.

By reading al-Fatihah's letter until the third time then they brought the stretcher of the coffin out of the house to the flower garden with the whole family and other pentakziah followed.

Seen in the middle of the park, a hole has been dug to bury Nadia's body. Satya, Tirta and Radit went down to the burrow to hold the bodies, while the others carried the bodies down towards them.

When entering the body into the pit, we are encouraged to recite the historical prayers of Abu Dawud, At-Tirmidhi, Al-Baihaqi, and others. This is a combined prayer of hadith and exhortation of scholars.

بِسْمِ اللهِ وَعَلَى مِلَّةِ/سُنَّةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ، اللَّهُمَّ افْتَحْ أَبْوَابَ السَّمَاءِ لِرُوحِهِ وَأَكْرِمْ نُزُلَهُ وَوَسِّعْ مَدْخَلَهُ وَوَسِّعْ لَهُ فِي قَبْرِهِ

Meaning:

...“In the name of Allah and of His apostles. O Allah, open the gates of the heavens to the spirit of the dead, glorify its place, expand its place of entry, and enlarge its grave.”...

All present guaranteed the do'a read together with Mr. Ustadz.

After the body was placed in place according to Islamic rules, Satya, Radit, and Tirta immediately went up, and they along with the neighbors closed the grave with the ground to form a mound.

Those present, some of them cry, especially women and now Nadia has rested quietly in her new nature, without feeling her pain again, she said, he waits to account for his deeds while living in the world.

All the people he left behind could only pray for Nadia to be in the death that Husnul was solemn.

One by one the pentakziah began to leave the place after saying goodbye to Satya and his family.

Anye holding Satya's hand invites her to go back into the house because the children sound crying, maybe they are thirsty because they have not got ASI from Carnation.

Before leaving Anyelir said in his heart, 'Goodbye and good-bye Ma'am, although now we are different nature, but I'm sure you can still see us here. Allow me to continue your struggle as a wife, to make the same people we love happy until our household sakinah, mawaddah and warahmah. Aamiyin....'

Carnations continued to hold Satya's arm until they arrived inside the house, then the two cleaned up and re-joined Grandpa, Mama, Papa, Tirta, Radit and Tina.

Baby Son and Baby Yasmine fall back asleep after getting ASI, then Baby Sitter immediately take them to the room and put in their respective boxes.

Grandpa suggests that Satya and Anye stay at Nadia's house until the seventh night is over. Because every night until the seventh night, the neighbors will continue to come for tahlilan.

Satya and Anye agreed, and after the seventh night they would return to the house of Carnation.

Grandpa, Mama, Papa and also Tirta pamit home, later tonight they will return again to join the throne while bringing change of clothes for Carnations and baby twins. If Satya already has a change of clothes in this house.

While Radit and Tina still want to stay, there is still something they want to talk to Carnations and Satya.
