Flowers from Heaven II

Eps. 31

Nisa has arranged a family gathering as best she can, she has contacted all her sisters and informed the state of Umma. Arka already knows everything, he supports the event his mother. Umma who was told was very happy, he felt so cared for.

The family event will definitely be held in the ponpes neighborhood, which is quite spacious and also close to Umma's private house.

The event will take place tomorrow, Sunday and today it is likely that all the families will come.

As usual if Nisa visits the ponpes she always fills out studies, this time for the residents around the ponpes, and is held in the ponpes mosque. Residents who are so fond of the study of Nisa, come in droves to fill the ponpes hall. Most of them were middle-aged mothers, and only a few were young women.

Arka was very amazed to see all that, he knew that his mother's lecture admired many people. Arka who also came beside his mother, now not the same as when he was always taken by his mother when a baby, now Arka has become a man, now Arka sits beside his mother like a caretaker of his mother.

Nisa filled out the study of a Mother, to the point that Nisa also dissolved in her sadness, her eyes never stopping to shed tears.

"Why must love the figure of the Mother, because her struggle can never be reciprocated by a child. There were some things that could not be avenged, the first of which was the water of his father when giving birth to his daughter's son, the blood that came out to give birth to her, not to mention the same pain as the broken bones, then the second of her milk while breastfeeding for 2 years, the third of her tears when she prayed for her children. Therefore love the figure of the Mother, as long as she lives happily, do good to her, for it is a field of reward for you children, when there is no child who is sholih to continue to pray for him" said Nisa in her study

Nisa immediately fell silent, she tried to wipe away her tears, she was so remembering the figure of Umma who helped a lot in her life to raise her son, the affection Umma he felt until now, it made him more and more soluble in his sadness.

Arka saw clearly his mother crying, he looked deeper into his mother. She also felt tremendous sadness, Arka still felt could not make her mother happy who had been a single mom in supporting her growth.

Arka took the initiative to give a tissue to her mother who sat in the pulpit.

"Thank you dear." said Nisa after receiving the tissue given by her son

All the worshippers saw the incident, all shouting to ask who the handsome young man was. Nisa again smiled when all the congregation excited by looking at the figure of Arka.

"Ustadzah.Who is that?" shouted the congregation so excited

"He is my only child, his name is Arkana" Nisa said with a smile

Arka returned a smile towards the congregation while bowing her gaze.

Then a organizer before closing the study event, invited a chat with Nisa and Arka so that all pilgrims know.

"Before the event is closed, how do we talk for a while with the ustadzah as well as this Arka Mas?" deni said the host

"Agujuuuu.." said the congregation compactly.

Nisa and Arka just smiled. Then Arka stood close to Nisa.

"Oh yeah make talk about Mom, about Mom's affection.. Mas Arka how the hell is the figure of Nisa's ustadzah as Mother?" deni said to Arka

"Eeemmmhh.." said Arka actually nervous in front of many people

"Mother is a great mother, a single mom who has a strong heart to raise her child alone." continued Arka while continuing to look at Nisa who stood beside her

Everyone was stunned to hear Arka's reply.

"What Mas Arka wants to convey to the figure of the Mother, especially for the Ustadzah Nisa Ibu Mas Arka, generally for all the great Mothers in this world.."

"For my Mother and all the great Mothers of this world, thank you for fighting to raise us, to accompany our growth, her children, may God give Heaven without a Hishab for all great Mothers.. aamiin" said Arka while holding her mother's hand gently, and looking at her deeply

Nisa was so moved to hear Arka's words, she again shed her tears nonstop.

*****

All of Nisa's sisters had gathered at home, so happy emanated from Umma's face. All the grandchildren and their children gathered together. Arka looks so familiar with all his cousins, although he actually rarely met them all.

This family gathering event begins with reading holy verses, teaching together, sitting together to make a circle, giving thanks for the grace of Allah SWT. After that proceed with a casual meal together, because the concept of the event is simple and relaxed, the most important of all can gather.

All eyes immediately looked at Umma, the crowd chatter of each stopped instantly.

"What do you want to say?" asked Nisa gently and politely

"For all my children, my daughter-in-law, and my grandchildren, thank you for coming and gathering on this good day. Umma, Grandma was so happy." said Umma in a trembling voice

Instantly Nisa's hand immediately held Umma's cold hand, Nisa continued to look at him deeply.

"Umma wants to tell everyone, you have to get along, you have to pay attention to your sisters, especially pay attention to Nisa, your youngest sister.. Not Umma favoritism, but Nisa is no longer his life companion, can not Umma calmly leave Nisa.. While the other, each of which has a partner, you must take care of each other yaa.." Umma said with a trembling voice and tears that began to drip

"Umma don't worry about Nisa.. Nisa will be fine even though there is no Mas Alfath, there is God who always takes care of Nisa, there is Arka as well." said Nisa who dissolved in her tears

Umma just nodded his head. It was obvious that his body was starting to become weak helpless.

"For all my grandchildren, you must be devoted to your parents, dear those who laboriously love you all, respect your parents.. Grandma loves you all very much." said Umma while looking at all her grandchildren alternately

Suddenly Umma's body was weak like there was no buffer, as soon as he lay limp.

"Astagfirullah Umma." shouted Nisa and Salma who happened to be near Umma so immediately Salma and Nisa who supported Umma's body

Fatih and Ridwan's boy Umma immediately approached Umma, and carried Umma's body to lie down in the room immediately.

Farhan, and Arya's two sons-in-law Umma also swiftly helped by giving way to the room.

Everyone was crying no longer. Arka looks so sad, because Arka is very with Umma because he lived together as a child. Arka cried and hugged her mother's body.

Umma was actually conscious, only his body suddenly felt and was very weak. Rahma Nisa's sister immediately contacted the nearest doctor to come check on the house.

Nisa, Arkana and her four sisters Nisa, as well as her four elder sisters-in-law gathered in the spacious room.

"Umma why? What's that hurting?" salma asked with tears on her cheeks

"Wait a minute, Umma, the doctor will come to check.." said Rahma Umma's daughter who also cried so badly

"Umma is okay.. It's just that now Umma can not feel any movement from the body Umma.." said Umma stammered with weakness

Umma immediately closed his eyes for a moment, without speaking anything more.

Not so long the doctor came to check, all out, inside only Fatih, Nisa, Rahma, and Salma.

"How's our mother doing, Doc?" ask Nisa impatiently

"Innalillahi wa innalillahi rojiun." said the doctor suddenly

"Why doc? My mother why?" salma said impatiently, as she continued to shed her tears

"Your mother has breathed her last." the doctor told me.

Break the cries of all, happy events become extraordinary grief events. Losing his parent figure for the second time, after Aba's departure.

All families and assisted by residents, take care of Umma's body, before the afternoon has finished being buried.

"Umma the sholiha, the chosen one of Allah, Umma received a great favor when death came. Subhannallah.." said Nisa while stroking a Headstone bearing the name Umma, with a smile forced in her tears
