I'm a Widow of Ustadz

chapter 39

They went to one of Rena's foundations, knowing that the foundation was a place for orphans who had no family there.

Rena wonder where Luthfi knows that there is a foundation because after Rena, Luthfi is rarely out of pesantren what else is just for the road.

They entered the foundation to welcome their arrival very well because like him they know Gus Luthfi.

"Assalamualaikum ma'am, we brought this" said Luthfi.

"Waalaikum salam, Nak Ustadz so ngerepotin" said the mother of the Foundation.

"No ma'am, take it sorry I can't be long because I have to go home" Luthfi said.

"Thank you" said the foundation's mother.

"Well, I'll go home Ms. Assalamualaikum" said Luthfi.

"Greetings waalaikum do not want to stop by first" asked the mother.

"No, thank you" said Luthfi.

Rena and Luthfi left there, Rena looked in awe at her husband that she could not escape the view of her husband.

"I'm sorry about the night" said Luthfi.

"Nothing else has not been Adhan as well" said Rena.

"Yes" said Luthfi.

"Morrow Eid prayer Gus Adha think who will be the priest" asked Rena.

"I don't know" said Luthfi.

"Yes, Abah never told me" said Rena.

"Therefore every Gus in the boarding school must practice because it will be very sudden Abah pointed to one of Gus there" said Luthfi.

"Yes you're right" Rena smiled.

"You know the prayer" asked Luthfi.

"Tau" said Rena smiling.

"How" asked Luthfi.

"Ushallii sunnatal lidil adha rok'ataini (makmuman/imaman) lillahi ta'alaa.

It means: "I intend the Eid al-Adha prayer (to be makmum/imam) because Allah is Taala.

It was his intention after that as usual to read the iftah prayer, then in the first raka'at takbir for seven times among the takbir recommended reading.

Subhaanallaah walhamdulillaah walaailaahaillaah.

After reading the letter Al Fatihah and other short letters, then rukuk, prostrate as usual and in the second raka'at takbir only five times, after that read Al Fatihah's letter and letter, rukuk, kajah, salam, finished" said Rena explained.

"Okay but whatever Sunnah is done before Eid al-Adha" asked Luthfi.

"Sunnah before performing Eid al-Adha is Not to eat first before praying, if we are encouraged to eat first when going to Eid al-Fitr prayer then in Eid al-Adha we should not eat first, if we are encouraged to eat first,

the second bath before Eid al-Adha prayer, the third wears a nice dress or fragrance, the fourth goes through a different road like we come to the mosque of a small street then go home the highway, the, fifth said a lot of takbir on the way to the mosque, fifth should not cut nails or hair" said Rena.

"Well what is the prayer to do a mandatory bath at the time of Eid al-Adha" asked Luthfi.

"Nawaitul ghusla liyaumi 'iiedil adha sunnatan lillahi ta'ala.

It means: "I intend to take a bath on the Eid al-Adha Sunnah because of Allah Ta'ala" said Rena.

"Good" said Luthfi.

"Oh yes Gus according to you yes, if for example Eid al-Adha or eid al-Fitr prayers on Friday right, for example, in the morning we do eid prayers but the afternoon does not do Friday prayers is okay" asked Rena.

"Try to tell me why I don't do Friday prayers" Luthfi asked.

"The reason is because the time is narrow or being in a circle, it could also be that the person is on the way, what can his Friday Prayer in passing" asked Rena.

"It's very narrow thinking" said Luthfi.

"Why" asked Rena.

"Rena Eid al-Adha prayer even though once a year it is still Sunnah and you know the Sunnah prayer if done will get a reward if left okay, it is okay, we will leave the prayer of fardhu for the sake of the Sunnah Prayer" said Luthfi.

"They are wrong, if I like that mending I do not pray Eid al-Adha rather than not praying Friday" said Luthfi.

"Yes I think so too" said Rena.

"It's okay they don't know so it's only natural but because we know we can't leave it, Rena you know I always think this way if we continue to pursue God somehow I feel I'm even further away from him" said Luthfi.

"I mean" asked Rena.

"Yes I was taught this by Abah I thought it was just a lie but I often felt, but I quickly beristighfar I did not want to talk about it, but it's true this feels very much to me" said Luthfi.

"Ah is impossible" said Rena.

"It's true, but if I had thought this the more I dug up all the knowledge, the more aware I would be if it was only as big as the gravel of science that I had" said Luthfi.

"Yes you're right" Rena said.

"You want to know Rena, there is a prayer that is immediately answered" said Luthfi.

"What prayers" asked Rena curiously.

"Prayer because after praying we immediately eat" said Luthfi smiling.

Rena grabbed her husband's arm.

"It could be" said Rena smiling.

"Truly" said Luthfi.

"Yes I know" said Rena.

"What reason do you believe that speech is prayer" asked Luthfi.

"Believe" said Rena.

"You know I used to talk to papah when he was still lying weakly on the cage because he was sick, I once said this to him, "Well, I'd be sure if there wouldn't be anyone else who would hurt Papah, and papah would be happy with me" I used to talk like that and you know a few weeks after his Alloh take papah away Yes now no one will hurt papah because papah already taken, papah, from there I understood that it was a prayer" said Luthfi.

"Yes maybe it's important that we keep the tongue gus" said Rena.

"Yes you're right maybe we shouldn't say much because you know that it's prayer" Luthfi said.

"It's not like that, we should also talk good" said Rena.

"Yes possible" said Luthfi.

At night they were in Luthfi's room in santri putra's room.

Rena is currently reading a book that she bought first.

"Read another book" asked Luthfi.

"Yes I like this one" Rena said.

"So go ahead" said Luthfi.

Lutfi wears a sarong and Koko's clothes that he carries, currently he is going to the mosque because tonight the sound of the takbir is in the middle of the mosque.

"Where are you going" asked Rena.

"I want to go to the mosque" said Lutfi.

"Follow" said Rena whining.

Luthfi landed a kiss on Rena who is currently there along with her.

"Come" said Luthfi.

"I'm waiting at Umi's house" said Rena.

"Yes baby come on" said Luthfi.

They went out to Abah's house in the pesantren, the sound of takbir has echoed in every mosque this is what Luthfi longs for.

Because in the city he won't be able to hear what else in the city he's not too close to people, most of the neighbors are people from far away and migrate there so they are only limited to work, after any holiday they will go home again.

"maybe others don't feel as lonely as I do" Luthfi murmured.
