HAPPY READING

💚💚💚💚💚

"Holy, after teaching, we go to the city park, maybe there are some things to tell you. I don't want to be late and save this problem." said Zhein while parking his car in the lecturer's parking lot.

"Can I come to class?" plain holy words.

"Boleh dear, but we pray Dzuhur first yes." said Zhein steady.

After the Dzuhur prayer, Suci and Zhein headed to Zhein's room waiting for the right time to teach. Today's schedule is not long just one SKS about 50 minutes, and it's just a question and answer session.

"Sacred Oath, it's time. You will sit in front of there. Today just ask and answer." said zhein flat. His heart still stuck with his dishonesty towards Saints.

"Yes Mas, I understand.But Saints don't ask ya?" the Holy Word chuckles.

Zhein and Saints entered the classroom together. Many eyes looked towards the Sacred with strange gazes.

Saints had just entered the class, so many students were wondering who was walking with the handsome Lecturer who was the student's dream, that was, it may be from another class or a level older brother who did not pass this course.

"Assalamualaikum, collect your duties, relay from behind. Then the material this time about HIJRAH AND REPENT, please open my question and answer session." said Zhein steady as take the task of students who have been preserved in the future.

"Waalaikumsalam, sir" they said in unison.

The saint who was at the front desk was silent. Pura pura was busy with her book which she borrowed from Zhein's room.

The question and answer session begins, someone starts the question.

"Sir, what about penance sambel, does Allah keep forgiving us?" said one of his students.

"To my immediate answer, Allah SWT is Most Compassionate, Most Merciful and forgiving, Allah SWT will still accept your repentance despite your penance. But if you fall into the same hole after repenting it means a fool, a person who has no intention of repenting" said Zhein steady.

"Sir, do you have to hijab?" said one of his students.

"In the Qur'an Surah Al-Anfal verse 74, Allah SWT says the meaning: 

"And those who believe and emigrate and strive in the way of Allah and those who give shelter and help (to the people of Muhajirin), they are the ones who truly believe. They have mercy and sustenance (merciful)." (al-Anfal: 74).

So hijrah is a continuous process to improve yourself, improve thinking, and improve the way of speaking and behaving. This applies to anyone. 

It does not have to be hijab, but it would be nice to hijab to close the aurat. Understood?" said Zhein steady.

"Sir does it need a berniqab woman, like her? isn't it just weird?" ask the other students to Zhein.

"Some scholars argue that a woman's face is not aurat, but wears a veil of her law sunnah (recommended) and will become mandatory if feared to cause slander. So my view as a lecturer, that woman should keep her view, especially that the woman is married, which is feared to be a slander. Do you think this woman is weird using a veil? who wants to answer." said Zhein throwing a question.

"Make me weird sir, because the neighborhood here rarely uses the niqab. But if according to the father to keep his view, maybe he is married sir." said loud students who understand the Sunnah berniqab.

"This woman is a convert, she is steady migrating, hijab and berniqab. Noble woman, the woman I love, she's my wife. Okay I close the question and answer time runs out, next meeting we will have Quis. Assalamualaikum." said Zhein while holding Suci outside the room.

All the students were just cheering, some were happy with Mr. Zhein's soul mate, some were upset, but obviously Mr. Zhein already had a wife, could not be loved.

"Mas, you are making Holy shame." said Suci slowly with his hands still held by Zhein.

Many eyes looked in astonishment, not usually a Zhein joined hands with a woman. Because of their marital status no one knows.

"Yes, but look at that, all your students?" holy Speak while looking at the side.

"Let's go." said Zhein cuek.

Zhein continued to hold Suci until the car park. Open the car door and let it in. Like a prince taking his queen away.

The car also runs to the city park that Zhein promised.

"Mas, are we going to the city park?" holy Words.

"So, I want to tell you something that happened in my past. I hope you can understand Saints." said Zhein hesitantly.

"Tell me if it's about you, you have a past, so do I, and it'll still be a past. And we are the future." said Suci reassuringly.

"Do you know why this man is called HUSBAND?" zhein said to divert the conversation.

"What is the Lecturer? Saints do not know, the holy ones know Mr. Lecturer is a handsome HUSBAND" said Suci chuckled.

"SUAMI is Heaven for Children with Wife" said Zhein steady.

"It could be this Zhein mas, it's the husband's job to bring his Wife and Son to Heaven" said Suci.

"Are you sure I'm a good man who can take you to Heaven?" Zhein.

"I don't need a sweet word, your treatment, your attention has proven, the rest I submit to Allah SWT." said Holy steady.

"If it turns out I have a bad past, will my wife still want to be with me?" said Zhein.

"Repent mas, I can't possibly punish you, of course you better understand the religion. Allah SWT is Forgiving. You taught me that way. Why are you why? the question is strange." said Suci.

"You know Kinanti?" said Zhein slowly.

"Winning? isn't that your ex, who just came?" the Holy Word flat.

"Aren't you curious? or want to know that?" said Zhein.

"Mas, I'm your wife, I must be jealous and curious about every woman who knows you as if she's going to be close to you. But my position is my wife and they're your friends. As long as they don't disturb my household, I don't have a problem. Except in public, they are indecent. So what do you want to tell me?" the Holy Word enthusiastically.

Actually this is what Saints are waiting for, Zhein wants to be honest about his past. Mother Jihan once told me about Zhein. A change in Zhein's attitude, and a Zhein's penance. This made Suci want to get to know Zhein and all his life, his extended family, and his friends.

"Are we talking in the car or are we going down?" zhein said as he parked his car around the city park.

"We're in the car." said Suci softly.
