Friendship Has Changed Destiny

Chapters 17. Conduct obligations

Work at home laundry is very piled up, but Zia is still a good Muslim and obedient worship. This did not make him abandon his duty, worshiping his Rob worship was the main thing for him only then he worked on another.

Allah SWT has ordered his ummah to do its duty, namely fardhu prayer (five prayers).

In accordance with the statement in QS. An-Nisa verse 103 means :

..." Verily, it is a time-determined duty upon those who believe "....

And the Prophet said: 'She also said:

..." The business that separates us (the Muslims) from them (the disbelievers) is prayer. And whoever abandons him has become an infidel ". ( HR. Ahmad and David of Buraidah, At Targhib 1:342)...

As a good Muslim Zia continues to try to do the most beloved deeds of Allah SWT, one of which is praying at the beginning of time.

In accordance with the Word of the Prophet SAW in (HR. Imam Tirmidhi) said :

..."The most Afdal practice is to establish prayer (five times) at the beginning of time "....

If it was because of something that caused Zia to miss performing the pardhu prayer, she would immediately say it as soon as she remembered.

After finishing worshiping his Robnya Zia immediately rushed ironing the clothes that had been piled up, deftly she ironed the clothes strands by strands with folds that were so neat that everything was finished. Zia often gets praise from the owner of the clothes and the owner of the loundry because of its satisfactory work. For that he often gets tips and bonuses from them.

Although they give tips and special bonuses for him but he always shared it with his friends.

When Zia was about to go home her phone rang, it turned out to be a phone from her mother. Zia hurriedly lifted him up, the sound of her sister there crying. His sister said while sobbing.

"Hallo brother, hyks hyx."

"Sister, hyks hyx."

"Hallo deck, deck why are you crying?, Deck let's explain to you brother, who has disturbed you until you cry Deck?"

"Dad brother."

"Yes, what's wrong with Dad deck?", Zia's feelings start to fidget.

"Let's quickly say deck."

"Father died Brother. Dad's rickshaw was hit by a truck and Dad died in the hospital sis."

"Koranan."

Zia's phone fell on the floor and fell apart. Zia was very surprised to hear the news, she felt struck by lightning, Zia finally sat limp on the floor with tears that kept dripping. The sister kept calling her and crying because she didn't hear her brother's voice anymore.

The mother of the loundry owner named Linda bu heard the sound of falling goods immediately approached Zia who was sitting on the floor.

"What's Zia, let's Zia tell mom why you're crying, let's say Zia."

"Dad Zia died mom, hyks hyks hyks", Zia continued to cry and Miss Linda immediately hugged her.

"Patience, patience, you must be strong. Remember your mother and sister, they still need you. You have to be strong to strengthen them, let's take you home", Ms. Linda took Zia's damaged phone and then drove Zia home.

When he got home he did not find his mother, only his sister who was crying.

He approached his sister,

"Where's mother's grandfather?"

Back his sister crying, "Mommy was taken to the hospital because the mother pingsang, hyks hyks hyks", back his sister crying.

His body is still in the hospital. Zia was confused as to what she should do. The family home of his mother and father is far away. He has no one else in town but his father, mother and sister. Want Rania and Angga phone can not because the phone is damaged.

Miss Linda who saw Zia was pitying, she then took out her cellphone and gave it to Zia.

"Take this phone, insert your card and then call your family or friends so they can help."

While still crying Zia thanked him and took Linda's mother's phone, then she took the card from inside her damaged phone and immediately put it in Linda's mother's phone.

Both of them were shocked to hear this news, Angga quickly drove his car down the highway to Zia's house. He knows for sure his lover is sad and in need of it, as well as Rania he immediately asked Asep to deliver it.

Now the two have arrived at Zia's house, Zia's house has been visited by many neighbors who work together to prepare places and other needs for the maintenance of the body. Rania ran to find her best friend and hugged her while crying, she tried to strengthen her best friend's heart.

While Angga also approached her lover, he could only hold her hand tightly to strengthen Zia, had they been a halal couple he might have pulled her into his arms and let her lover cry there.

Then Angga said, "Let me take care of the return of Father's body and see the condition of mother, you, sister and Rania here, later I will inform you by phone, Rania please leave them", angga's Message to Rania.

Rania nodded and said, "Calm down Ngga, I'll be with my best friend here", replied Rania as she continued to hug Zia's body which shook from holding back tears.

Then Angga asked for the address of the hospital where the body was located and Zia's mother was treated.

Upon arrival at the Angga hospital immediately contacted the hospital to arrange the return of the body.

After the business was finished, he looked for information about Zia's mother's nursery. He entered the room and saw an old woman lying weakly there unconscious with an infusion hose attached to her arm.

A doctor and a nurse were doing their job to make Zia's mother aware. Then the doctor approached him and asked,

"You're a patient's family?"

Even if he nodded his head.

"Can we talk in my room."

"Well Doc" answered Angga.

They entered the doctor's room. The doctor then asked Angga,

"Is this your mother?"

"Not Doc, this is my friend's mother, they are in a state of disaster, the mother's husband is dead and the child is waiting for the return of the body from this hospital. So let me represent him Doc."

"Oh, what a pity for them, a series of calamities happened. It had fallen on the stairs anyway", continued the doctor.

"Alright, I will explain the condition of the mother" continued the doctor.

"This mother had to receive intensive care because of her heart disease. His condition was very weak, the pressure and shocking news had made him anfal, but his critical period had passed just waiting for him to come to his senses. He still needs treatment to recover his condition."

"Dok, please do the best treatment for him, regarding the cost I will try."

"Alright then please go to the administration, there are letters that you must sign and to the medicine section because there are drugs that you have to buy outside, there are letters that you have to buy outside, the drug stock in this hospital just happens to be empty again."

"Okay Doc, I'm sorry, Oh yes doc after the administration business is finished I tipped Mommy first because I will return to the funeral home to organize the process of organizing the fardhu kipayah and the burial of Dad's body."

The doctor nodded, "Alright, our nurse will take good care of the patient as long as you leave."

Angga passed the administration and then run his car back to the funeral home. Zia's father's body has arrived and immediately bathed, pardoned and will soon be sholated.

Zia, Rania and the penta'ziah were already preparing to participate in the prayer, while Angga was preparing to become the Imam in the funeral prayer.

During his close to Zia Angga has learned a lot about the science of religion. He calls an ustadz to his apartment to teach him without Zia's knowledge. He wanted to be a good priest for Zia and her little family.

This is the first time he ventured into priest praying the corpse, everything went smoothly only the last process of bringing the body to its final resting place.

The body was taken away from the funeral home, Angga and others took the body to the cemetery.

Upon returning from the funeral he met his lover who was still seen crying in Rania's arms. In front of Zia he said you have to be strong baby, mother and sister need you, let Dad go let Dad calm down in his new nature. Let us both do 'a father, that Allah SWT give the best place for him is Heaven God.

And we must remember that all that lives will surely die. We just have to wait for our turn.

In accordance with the word of Allah SWT in QS. Ali Imran 185 which means :

..." Every soul will feel dead "....
