The sun had already begun to immerse itself in the western horizon. The color of the sky is orange indicates soon the time magrib prayer arrives. The santri stopped all activities to clean up and prepare to go to the mosque. White cocoa clothes, sarong, songkok, and pocket Quran never escape for them to bring to the mosque.


"Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar.... Laa Ilaha...."


Azan has been completed by santri who have been scheduled to become muezzin in their mosque. The santri pray the sun and read the Quran waiting for the head of the hut and other ustad to perform the congregational magrib prayer.

Azan isya has been mentioned. After the prayer isya all the santri read the evening wirid together to keep away from the supernatural and protect themselves.


Santri thronged into the kitchen through the darkness of the night. The laughter of the santri breaks the darkness of the night. The smell of decaying yellow bamboo makes the students have to close their noses when passing through it.


In the kitchen santri devoured dinner with great pleasure. The dishes tonight are very special, chicken goremg and chili typical made by the kitchen mother who makes the santri devour everything leaving only trays and chicken bones.

"Mad, let's go around?" take Ridwan


"Don't, we're the same as everyone else." declined Ahmad.

After touring just now he went to the WC again and sent me deluan to the dormitory of the santri building, arriving at the hostel I found Ridwan again woke up santri and he was angry with me if I left him at WC last night. Who was the same as me last night." Ahmas explains at length to Ustad Naim.

"Ayoo continued to wake up santri." take Brother Haikal to break the tension of Ahmad who was very frightened. Ahmad kept wondering.


"That means I walk with the dormitory jin all night." muttered Ahmad inwardly while waking up the santri.


Finally, all the santri have woken up and performed the lail prayer. Even the night picket officer immediately slept soundly, only Ahmad could not sleep because of the thought of the thing that had just happened to him.
