God's Choice of Mate

Early feelings.

Ummah hugged me tightly while landing a kiss unfortunately on my forehead.,"May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala bless you and bless you and gather you and Fariz in kindness.”

I smiled a little at Ummah, "Aamiin ya rabbal 'alamin. "

Ummah and Bik Siti then took my fingers slowly to descend into the living room of the Imandar family which has been transformed into a place for the wedding procession.

With a thumping and tense feeling, my heart never stopped to ponder.

Every now and then Ummah tidied up the Muslim wedding dress I was wearing.

"MasyaAllah Tabarakallah, in the simplicity of the appearance of princess Ummah looks more charming with a matching hijab combined with long laces veil and beautiful head pieces. "

I smiled a little at Ummah's words, then Bik Siti teased me with her words, "Ready, it's Nak Rani with an elegant and simple look Nak Rani, will steal the attention of many people, especially the attention and heart of Nak Fariz because Nak Rani really looks very charming, hihihi. "

"Akh, Bik Siti started again nosily, "I said slowly.

Bik Siti smiled as she rubbed my back, this time with her serious-looking face and teary eyes, "Auntie is very happy Nak Rani. At the end of the day that aunt is waiting for has arrived, where aunt can see Nak Rani can compete with Nak Fariz as a married couple. May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala give Nak a blessing. The ease of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala also poured out blessings to Nak Rani and easy - hopefully Allah also united Nak Rani and Nak Fariz in virtue."

"Aamiin Allahumma Aamiin, grant O Allah grant, "my words and Ummah simultaneously.

Then, Ummah immediately invited me and Bik Siti to hurry.

I stuttered and Bik Siti immediately wiped her tears. By wearing a Muslim wedding dress that looks simple and uncomplicated. But it looks luxurious, classy and graceful with classic full beads details combined with Ummah choices that choose white satin hijab and long laces veil beautiful, in shades of white and laces details, in the color, it really makes me look very elegant and charming.

Flanked by Ummah and Bik Siti on either side of me, my feet stepped into the place on her title of marriage contract. I smiled a little with a thumping feeling while carrying a white hand bouquet of white garbera flowers, the first flower Ustad Fariz gave me.

My eyes and Ustad Fariz met, this time as if surprised by the bouquet of white garbera flowers I held. I deliberately asked Ummah to buy garbera flowers, as a choice of hand bouquet flowers during the marriage contract. It was from this flower that I began to realize the feeling of silence Ustad Fariz to me, without ever trying to express it through his words.

I had sat down beside Ustad Fariz and was with him, though the feeling of tension running through my body had not completely disappeared and grew even more intense when Ustad Fariz was near me.

Then, Ummah and Bik Siti sat down to join the others in the space provided. Meanwhile, I and Ustad Fariz are still continuing the next procession after the ijab qabul was successfully carried out and considered valid by the guests present.

And for the first time ever, I sat down and met Ustad Fariz, who had legally become my husband. After completing his marriage contract, the pengulu father read the do'a;

Bismilbornohmanirohim. Alhamdulilbaobbilamin.

Allahumma sholli wa sallim ‘ala Sayyidina Muhammad Wa Ala Ali Sayyidina Muhammad.Allahumma aj'al hadzha al'akda mubarok,walqiran sa'idan. Waj'al fi qudumihima alkhoyro. Walyumna wassaadatal abadiya.Wa baroka.

Waj'ma shamlahum, wa'adimil ulfata baynahum, warzuquhuma al'arzaqo hissayata walmaknawiyata, kullu dzhalika mashuban bilutfi walafiwi wal'afiyati attammat, wassohati alkamilat, wadzzuriyata toyabata mubarakah, bihaqqi ; Rabbana hab lana min azwajina wa dzurriyatina qurrata ayun’, bihaqqi, waja’alna lil muttaqina imama. Wa bihaqqi; Rabbana atina fiddunya hasanah wa fil endoti hasanah waqina ‘adzabannar.Wa ala alihi washohbihi wasallam. Wa illa hadrotin nabiyil musthofa muhammadin Shollallahu'alaihi wasallam. Bisirril Al-Fatihah By mentioning the name of a loving and merciful God

Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds. O Allah, mercy and salvation upon our Sayyid, Muhammad and to our Sayyid family, Muhammad. O Allah, make this contract full of blessings, a marriage full of happiness.

Make by you his second coming his eternal goodness and blessing and happiness. And bless you to these two husbands and wives. And gather it with you to them both.

And maintain harmony between the two. And give fortune to both with wealth and health. All of this was accompanied by kindness, forgiveness, and a perfect Afiyah.

And perfect health. Also give good children and blessed families, with truth (Our Lord, grant us our spouses and our descendants as our sweeteners and make us leaders of the righteous) and the truth (Our Lord, our Lord, give us good in the world and good in the Hereafter.

Protect us from the torment of hell). Give mercy and salvation to the family and friends of the Prophet. And to Prophet Muhammad Shallallahu Alaihi Wasallam with the secret of Al-Fatihah.

It was only after the do'a of the pengupulu sir, I and Ustad Fariz exchanged rings which of course were not made of gold and this was only symbolic.Mainly located on the akad table, the, me and Ustad Fariz were then asked to sign a number of important documents, including a husband and wife marriage book. This stage at once became a sign of a legitimate relationship for the bond of the two of us in the eyes of the law of the Indonesian state.At the next stage was the handover of the dowry, where Ustad Fariz would hand over the dowry symbolically to me. Although we both still looked stiff and tense, but myself and Ustad Fariz still did well and were calm. Until it does not feel entering the marriage advice session conveyed by friends Enjid.

"Assalamu’alaikum warahmatulli wabarakatuh, "said friend of Enjid.

" Wa'alaikumussalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh, "answered everyone present.

Praise be to Allah for whom we ask forgiveness. We seek refuge in God from the evils and evils of our practice. Whosoever Allah guides then none can lead astray, and whosoever strays from the way of Allah, none can guide him. And I testify that there is no God but Allah, who is no ally to Him. And I testify that Muhammad is His servant and His Messenger.

Please note, the purpose of giving marriage advice is to improve the quality of marriage in order to realize the family Sakinah Mawaddah Wa Rahmah, in accordance with Islamic teachings. In addition, also so that household life remains healthy, harmonious and able to face various challenges and problems in the future.

Marriage must be supported by 4 pillars, namely: first, the husband of the wife must have a sense of mutual belonging, mutual love so that it will make the husband and wife feel calm.

second, married couples who have tied the promise must try to keep the relationship sustainable and bring good together.

Third, marriage needs to be built with a good attitude and relationship.

Fourth, marriage is managed by the principle of deliberation, mutual communication, mutual exchange of opinions, so grow up in a household of mutual respect between husband and wife.And for ananda Fariz remember that at this time you are promising to God, be careful. Including me as a husband. Because the ijab qabul is our covenant form to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. Therefore Rasullullah shallallahu alaihi wasallam reminded to fear Allah in the affairs of women because you take your wives on the mandate of Allah. And I remind the husbands, especially Ananda Fariz, to always treat his wife with good and noble.Because we Ananda Fariz already have a covenant with Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.

Where one of the purposes of marriage in Islam is to worship Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. Marriage is seen in Islam as part of perfecting the worship of a Muslim.

As the Prophet said in a hadith, which means:

"Whoever marries, he has perfected half of his worship (his religion). And he shall fear Allah SWT in the maintenance of the part." (CHR. Thabrani and Judge).

Because marriage is a lifelong worship that must be lived by a married couple. They will experience the joys and sorrows together in sailing the household ark.Nikah in Islam is not just satisfying the desire of orgasm. However, there is more than that, there is a charity that will continue to flow.Dimana people who previously diligently run dhuha prayers will stop after death, who diligently dhikr will stop after death. However, after marriage there will be prayers that will continue to flow from children who are sholeh. So pray that when the family later, get a sholeh and sholeh child. As of, ijab kabul must be held firmly with all risks or challenges, namely by realizing that this is sharia and realizing the value or command from Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala that must be maintained and must be maintained implemented.

And no less important is that you both must be good at enjoying a difference and growing a difference with the power of love. Thus the short marriage advice I gave, may be useful for both of you.

Congratulations, may you be the family of Sakinah Mawadah and Warahmah until the end of your life separates the two of you. And Allah further adds to his Rezekiah, barokah and obtains the Divine Ridho. Once again I say ,Barakallahu laka wa baraka ‘alaika wa jamaa bainakuma fi khairin

May Allah bless you in joy and sorrow and may Allah gather you both in goodness.

Allahummaqsim lanaa min khosyyatika maa tahuulu bihi baynanaa wa bayna ma’aashik. Wa min thoo ’atika maa tubalighunaa bihi. Yaqiin maa tuhawaiki ‘alaynaa mashooibad dunya. Allahumma matti’na bi asmaa’inaa wa abshorina, wa quwwatin aa maa ogyatanaa, waj’a waaris minnaa, waj’al tsa rona ‘ala man zholamanaa, wan-shurna ‘alaa man ‘adaanaa, waj’al, wa laa taj’al mushibatanaa fii inininaa wa laa tajal dunya akbara hammina, wa laa mablagho ‘ilminaa, wa laa tusallith ‘alaynaa mallaa yarhamunaa.

O God, grant us to fear You, who may stand between us and your transgressions, and (give us) obedience to You that will deliver Us to Your heaven and (give us also) confidence that will cause us all the misfortune of this world. O Allah, grant us pleasure through our hearing, our sight and in our strength as long as we are alive, and make it our inheritance. Recompense us against those who persecute us, and help us against those who are hostile to us, and do not make our misfortune in our religious affairs, and do not make the world our greatest ideal and the culmination of our knowledge, and do not make those who do not love us have power over us.

Wabillahit taufiq. Wassalamu'alaikum warahmatulli wabarakatuh .Allah is the One who guides the straight path, and may be given salvation for you, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings be upon you."

After listening to marriage advice. Ustad Fariz was asked to hold my crown while reading do'a after the agreement, "Allahumma inni as’a min khoirihaa wa khoirimaa jabaltaha ‘alaih. Wa a’udzubika min syarriha wa syarrimaa jabaltaha ‘alaih. O God, I ask You for His goodness and the good that You have set upon him. And I take refuge in Thee from his ugliness and the ugliness which Thou hast set upon him."

After that, I touched Ustad Fariz's right hand by kissing her hand. The thumping feeling grew louder and so full of tension, which was for the first time. Ustad Fariz and I touched.

Every now and then our eyes met, and made the thumping of the heart feeling between us even more stifling.

Next, we took a picture together and then continued taking pictures with the family.

Where there are many do'a-do'a overflows that keep flowing to me and Ustad Fariz non-stop.

My eyes looked around, looking at every level of happiness everyone from the closest family was present.

Huft, I sighed to make myself feel much calmer.

And when everyone had finished taking pictures with me and Ustad Fariz, then headed to the food that had been prepared to enjoy the food. Suddenly Ustad Fariz clasped my finger slowly.I was a little jolted and quickly turned to him, where our eyes met, but this time Ustad Fariz did not bow his gaze to me, this further made my heart beat faster in an uncontrollable rhythm.

Ustad Fariz's gaze was so shady and gentle that she looked at me.Where her little smile made me feel even more silent in her fixed eyes. That feeling hit me instantly. It felt as if my whole body was weakening in the vibration of something I did not understand.

However, I kept trying to calm down and control my anxiety and misbehavior when I was close to Ustad Fariz.
