Hijrah Me Because of You

The Decision to Islam

It used to be for him that power and money were everything, according to him if he wanted to be recognized then he had to have high power with countless money. But now he realizes 1 thing the more he pursues a high position then his thirst will continue even more so his same thing when he kills there is a great sense of satisfaction when he saw blood flowing from one's neck, and it was then. now he began to feel that he was very dirty even he wondered, will God forgive his sins? does he deserve to convert to Islam ?and is it worth it that he yearns to have someone as good and clean as Maira? Looking at all his crimes and what he wants right now it feels like nothing, hey imagine him wanting Maira is like a big ass who misses the moon.

Eldrich's Office...

Dert...

One call that came in broke the reverie Eldrich, he took his phone that he had thrown all the way lucky that cracked only the protective glass of the screen.

_Original_

That's what's on his phone screen, though,

" El are you in the office right now?.."

"What's wrong with my brother?..."

"So I left the flash containing the meeting material to be held in 3 more days in my desk drawer and I forgot to copy the file can you take it with you ? actually this is not important but if the file is lost it will definitely be a problem .."

"Hahaha.just relax, brother, I have no regrets about failing to win the tender anyway, but since you asked for it well I'll take it,,"

" Ck basic..how will your company go forward, if the boss is just indifferent so...."

" Brother please do not nag like that, you are exactly with Indonesian mothers bhahahah.." as soon as Eldrich was shuffled.

"Hey... Stop it, I'm advising you El, anyway for the sake of the benefit of my salary know, if the company's performance decreases I don't want to know anyway my salary don't cut okay it's your fault,,"

"well basic so you want your own good brother... "

"that's it if there's an old man talking again in dengerin, haish"

"iya-iya the oldest..."

"btw you plan until when you're in the office, will you take a step there El?

Eldrich turned to the wall clock,

at 20:45, it was almost 9 p.m.

" Ah well I want to go home now thanks brother has reminded .."

"Yes the same, be careful on the road, do not mostly daydream.."

end call's.

Eldrich tidied up his laptop and some of the files he had seen well even though only seen had not been able to review further because his mind was not here but elsewhere, then he took his black suit and his car keys did not forget he also went to Ali's room to take the flash in Ali's trust on him.

And it's true that the condition of his office was deserted, there were only 3 officers left standing guard.

__until at the mansion

When he entered the living room he saw his grandmother sitting on the sofa holding her phone while daydreaming. Seeing that Eldrich slowly approached and greeted his refined grandmother.

" Mother... Why daydream, grandma has dinner?... " His question was smooth while crouching in front of her grandmother.

"Ah. You've come home apparently,..." Her grandmother said from her daydream.

" Well, grandma has dinner?.."

Ask Eldrich again.

" No, I'm waiting for you let's have dinner together after that there's something she wants to talk about." said the grandmother as she moved on

Eldrich just followed her from behind.

_ Finish eating

"Arne I've spoken to your mother." Her grandmother opened the conversation.

" Well, what do you think..?.."

" Your mother was happy to hear that, hoping you could trust in God again, she also said that no matter what religion you have as long as you can get better, your mother was very happy because your purpose of being sent to Indonesia was indeed to make you better here, but your father..." His grandmother paused his sentence.

"I know you don't agree..." Eldrich smiled wryly.

" No arne your father didn't disagree just still hasn't," his grandmother tried to comfort Eldrich.

"There is no word yet in the dictionary of the father grandmother, if he says yes then it must be yes but if it is not then it will still be not,,,,"

"Are you going to convert to Islam?"

" Whatever the risk, my decision was already unanimous and I think I found my light there and the answer to everything I wanted was there." said Eldrich mantab.

" If it's your decision, and if it's your best grandmother will support you no matter what," she smiled as she stroked Eldrich's shoulder.

That night Eldrich sent a message to Ali that he was ready to convert to Islam in a born and inner way.

This evening Eldrich slept with a feeling of happiness and relief simultaneously.

The next day in Eldrich's room

"What does your family think El..?"

Ali opened the conversation.

"My grandmother and my mother agreed, my father was against it and my brother hasn't told me because he's still in Amsterdam but it doesn't matter.."

"Are you sure there won't be any problems?"

Investigate Ali.

" No brother, from the beginning I was sure that even if the world was against there would be no way to shake an Eldrich's commitment to Islam, only you told me to think about it again..."

" El I tell you to think about it again because I want to convert to Islam later your heart is really mature and ready, and not just a momentary desire.."

" Well I understand, then when can I convert to Islam brother..." Ask Eldrich enthusiastically.

"Tomorrow Friday right?, I think tomorrow's the right day.."

" Now, not now... Why?"

Eldrich wondered.

" El for something good we have to choose a good day," Ali explained.

" Aren't all days the same, any day would be good if the intention was good isn't it?.."

" Eittts make no mistake, all days are good but there are 1 day the best even is the king of all days that is Friday..."

" Ogh... I can't wait for tomorrow, so it's decided tomorrow is the big day." Eldrich said with a beaming face.

"brother before that you should tell me first what should I do tomorrow?"

" not much, all you need to do is follow everything the imam of the Mosque said, he happens to be my acquaintance so you don't have to worry," Ali said with a smile.

" Brother can you tell me about Islam there is still 2 hours before Dzuhur time, say whatever it is I will listen to it." said Eldrich enthusiastically.

" emm.. what's it?"

Eldrich nodded.

and be the time 2 hours Ali use to chat at length about the things that should be known Eldrich, about the obligations of a Muslim, about the obligations of a Muslim, the prohibition of the prohibition as well as the basic things about Islam although it is not detailed but it is enough as a picture for Eldrich, Ali told Eldrich to look for it from various sources and later if there are things that he does not understand then it should be asked outside office hours or when office hours are empty.

Ali was quite satisfied with the way Eldrich responded to the answer he gave, from the way Eldrich thinks it is clear that he is the type of person who is open-minded in the things he just received but the thing that makes Ali most amazed is Eldrich does not accept something with raw but he will do more research, such as continuing to ask or investigate himself.
