God's Choice of Mate

Sis Reno's restlessness.

"Why does Reno's brother look upset and agitated?, "asked the warden to approach Reno's sister who was sitting leaning against the wall of the musholla.

Brother Reno turned to the Warden.

"Father just call me with Reno sir, that sounds better than bapk call me with Reno's air. "

The warden smiled slightly.

"Alright if according to Reno's brother it is the best thing. "

Brother Reno replied to Mr. Warden with a small smile.

"See you look at these few days you look sad and think of something? does this have anything to do with the hijab girl who came to visit Reno at that time?, "asked the Warden trying to guess.

Brother Reno was surprised by the question from the Warden who seemed to know about his heart.

"Why? Why would Reno even look at you?. "

Brother Reno sighed and turned his face to look at the ceiling of the musholla.

"Yes sir, I think of the hijab girl who came to see me the other day, she is my ex-wife. "

"Ex-wife?, "asked the Warden in surprise.

Brother Reno nodded his head as he looked at the surprised face of the Warden hearing his words.

"His name is Rani Pak. We got married because of my grandfather's insistence and were filled with intrigues as well as various kinds of lies to him. "

"meaning? You two are forcibly married without any love?, "asked the Warden.

"Yes sir, but I was too naive to pretend not to love him and to keep up with the game made by all my family members in order to keep Rani in our family, so that my family can continue to enjoy all the wealth of her late grandfather who was forcibly seized by my grandfather, and that was without Rani's knowledge. "

The Warden was silent to what all Reno Sis told him about his life journey with me.

"I have made Rani suffer so much, sir, that she has lost her eyesight because of me. And I'm here also for my wrongdoing who has been rude to him and also my late friend."

Sis Reno's tears drip slowly.

"It hurts a lot sir. After Rani left my life, after she left me I realized her importance in my life. Because it turns out that all this time I loved him very much and covered the feeling of love that I had for Rani with a blanket of hatred that I instilled in my heart. But after he really left. I feel very down and down sir. It turns out that he is so precious to me, hiks. "

The Warden felt pity and sympathy for Brother Reno, then slowly the Warden patted Kak Reno on the shoulder.

"Everything that happens in this world has become the decree of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, such as the alternation of day and night, the existence of beautiful nature, on the contrary, the existence of things that are set like natural disasters, such as natural disasters, misfortune and so forth. Similarly, there are differences in human circumstances, God created man with various forms, there is a perfect or less perfect form. As for Allah, He governs every human need and places the human condition in a variety of different ways. Because that is a provision that is certainly good and should we as humans also be able to believe to that depth. "

"I understand sir, and that is what makes me so very sorry for what I did before, " said Mr. Reno as he wiped his tears.

"During life of course trials will come in turn. Not infrequently we as humans are often made to regret and despair for the mistakes and sins we have committed. Whereas what Nak Reno should know is that Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala will not burden His servant beyond his ability.As Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala said in the Qur'an letter of Joseph verse 87 which reads: The Quran:

Yes baniyyazhabu fa tahassasu miy yusufa wa akhihi wa la tai'asu mir rauhillah, innahu la yai'asu mir rahillahi illal-qaumul-kafirun.

Which means: O my children, go and seek the news of Joseph and his brother. Do not despair of the mercy of Allah. Verily, no one should despair of the mercy of Allah except the disbelievers

The Warden sighed for a while and then continued his words to Brother Reno.

"So Nak Reno as long as we are still breathing by Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, it means there will always be hope that God gives us. So that when we find it very difficult to face challenges and trials in life, then the hope of completion of the trials we face will come to those who believe and believe in the destiny that God gave. And what Nak Reno has to do is to keep trying to do the best thing accompanied by do'a, that is the best way according to the father in facing the test of Allah Ta'ala. "

Brother Reno is still silent to reflect on the message delivered by the Warden to him. The Warden who still saw the anger on Kak Reno's face again gave a narrative of providing motivation to make Kak Reno excited and not dissolved in sadness.

"Son Reno, life is full of colorful life.Nak Reno know not what it means?," asked the Warden to see the face of Kak Reno.

Brother Reno while thinking to answer the question of the Warden.

"According to my thought in life it is adorned with joy and sorrow. Is that right, sir?, "asked Brother Reno.

The warden smiled and nodded his head.

" It is true what Nak Reno said, that life is sometimes filled with pleasure, sadness, disappointment, regret, and regret, and so forth.Where all the flavors will rotate alternately occupy the cavity of our hearts and minds dynamically. Because of its discovery it is a consequence of every life choice we take and make .So, the choice of life is actually the best choice of good that we have decided, of course, by weighing the good and bad before we decide to do it. So if you have made a choice, and just do it, never regret what you have chosen, because we already know the risks of our choice. Well, that's the point God gives us the sense that we use to think before doing the action. Whatever choice we make in the end whether it will be in line with expectations or not, never regret it,but try to make the maximum effort to correct the mistakes and sins that we have done by repenting and doing good things, by fixing ourselves to be a much better person than before. And the problem of the final decision of our hope after fixing ourselves, leave everything to the Decreeer that is Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. "

Brother Reno nodded his head without saying anything.

The Warden was increasingly engrossed in giving advice to Reno, who now began to slowly continue to strive to forge himself into a good person.

"This life is the most beautiful destiny of the Creator that has been bestowed upon the chosen people."

"What do you mean by that phrase, sir?, "asked Reno, who was provoked by the words of the Warden.

The Warden smiled happily, because Reno began not to feel riled up and listened to all his words well.

"It means that whatever is in us should never be regretted, and whatever happens in our lives is also not to be regretted. We as human beings are merely as executors of the divine commandment by optimizing the ability of our intellects and minds to carry it out. Because life is a struggle. So never regret what has happened to our lives, because life is not the past, this life is the present and the future. So, Nak Reno must make the past a life lesson to continue to improve for all things that happen to Nak Reno, because it has happened. Now Nak Reno instills in Nak Reno's heart, if Nak Reno's separation with Rani is the best decision from the Creator. However, according to Nak Reno's point of view, it is a painful ruin, but not according to the Lord of the heavens. Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala Maha Knows what is best in life, if Nak Reno is always grateful and sincere in living the destiny decision of Allah Ta'ala. God willing, there will be a path of ease to happiness that Allah will be pleased with in patience and sincerity that Nak Reno lives now, "said Pak Wipir at length.

"May I be among those who do not regret the past" Reno said.

Then the Warden taught to Reno Brother to always continue to be prejudiced to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala with one of them teaching Brother Reno to say a prayer when disappointed so that the heart feels calmer. And Brother Reno also followed the lafadz do'a which was read by the Warden.

"Allahumma Inni a'udzubika minal hammi wal huzni, wal ajzi, wal kasali, wal bukhli, wal jubni, wal dhola'id daini, wa gholabatir rijali.

It means: "O my Lord, I take refuge in You from sorrow and sorrow or anxiety, from weakness and weakness, from infidelity and cowardice, and the burden of debt and the pressure of the people (evil), "said Pak Sipir followed by Kak Reno.

Brother Reno was silent for a moment, then in his uneasiness he ventured to ask the Warden.

"Then what if the girl I love so much is Rani later married to someone else? I will definitely not be able to accept that painful reality Sir, ", Reno said with a sad expression.

The Warden patted Reno on the shoulder and threw a smile.

"Would Reno listen to a story?, "asked the Warden.

"What story, sir? Wasn't I asking my father about my fear, if Rani was a girl of my heart to be married by someone else, " replied Reno.

The warden smiled again.

"The story I'm going to tell you has something to do with Rani and Nak Reno. "

"Really sir?, "asked Brother Reno in spirit.

The Warden nodded his head slowly while throwing his smile.

"Well sir then please tell me the story, I want to listen to him, "please ask Reno with great enthusiasm.

Brother Reno looked at the face of the Warden very seriously, and the Warden was preparing to start a story that would bring a heartfelt interpretation for Brother Reno. "The story you will tell is a love story that brings heaven to both people who magnify their love for Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. "

Brother Reno is getting excited to hear the prologue of the story told by the Warden. So immediately Brother Reno turned his body to face the Warden and prepared with his serious face to listen to the love story that brings heaven.

The warden began to tell me:

"Al-Mubarrid mentions from Abu Kamil from Ishaq bin Ibrahim from Raja’ bin Amr An-Nakha’i, he said, "It is in Kufa, there is a handsome young man, he is very diligent and obedient. One time he visited the village of Bani An-Nakha’."

Then, she saw a beautiful woman from them so she fell in love and was so very kasmaran. And it turns out that the love of the young man to the beautiful woman was not clapping one hand.

Because he felt in love, the young man finally sent someone to propose to the girl he loved. But the girl's father told the young envoy that his daughter had been betrothed to her cousin. And how broken the young man's heart was knowing if the girl he loved would marry someone else.

Despite this, the love of the young man and the girl could not be extinguished just like that, even their love was both burning up. The girl who was loved by the young man, finally sent a message to the young man who loved him through the intermediary of someone's help to the young man, as for the sound of the message like this, "I know how much you love me, and how much I have been tested with you. If you agree, I'll visit you or I'll make it easier for you to come see me at my house."

Write a message from the Girl.

Then the young man replied to the message from the girl through his man, "I disagree with the two alternatives, in fact I feel afraid if I do not obey my Lord, it will be the punishment that will come upon me on the great day. I am afraid of a fire that never shrinks and never goes out."

Write the young man.

When the message was delivered to the girl, the girl said, "So then, apparently she is still afraid of God? By Allah, no one is more entitled to fear Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala than anyone else. All servants are equally entitled to it." Then the girl left the affairs of the world and put away her bad deeds and began to worship closer to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. However, the girl still keeps her feelings of love and longing for the young man. The girl's body began to thin because it held her longing, until finally the girl died because of holding back the love of the young man she loved so much.

And after the death of the girl, the young man often made a pilgrimage to his grave.The young man cried and mendo’ya. Until one day the young man fell asleep in the grave of the girl. The young man dreamed of meeting his lover, the girl who had died, but in the dream of the young man. The girl is in a very good appearance. In the dream of the young man.

The young man asked the dead girl, "How are you? And what do you get after you die?. "

The girl replied, "Good love, O one who asks, is your love. A love that can lead to goodness."

The young man asked back, "If so, where are you headed?."

Then the girl replied, "I am now heading towards enjoyment and a life that does not end. In the Eternal Heaven that I can have and will never be broken."

Then the young man said again, "I hope you will always remember me there, for I am here also never to forget you."

The dead girl replied, "By Allah, I have not forgotten you. And I ask my Lord and your Lord, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, that we may be gathered. So help me in this with your earnestness in worship."

The young man asked, "When can I see you?. "

The girl replied: "Now you will come to see me."

And seven days after the dream had passed, the young man was called by Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala to his presence, who died.

That is a great love story based on the promise to meet in heaven. Incredibly not Nak Reno, "asked the Warden.

Reno replied, "Subhanallah sir, very touching. "

The Warden smiled and then got up from his seat while patting slowly on the shoulder of Brother Reno.

"Then do not be upset about Rani, if she is destined to be your soul mate, then by Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala will bring her to you. Because something that belongs to someone will return to his possession, of course all with secrets and a path that God has planned. "

The Warden then passed away leaving Brother Reno who was still silent about the words of the Warden.
