In the room Ustadzah Zahra sat in bed and opened the envelope given by Aisyah. When he opened the envelope he was surprised because it contained a ta'aruf form and a letter. He began to read the contents of the form, then changed to read the contents of the letter
*Banyuwangi, 10 October 2016.
Zahra Dear.
Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi. Hi Zahra, you definitely do not know me, you must be wondering who I am. I'm sorry, zahra, I was so presumptuous to write this letter to you, and I'm sorry that I have been so presumptuous to love you in silence, I want you to know about my feelings that I like you, but I don't want to tarnish this love, if you accept my ta'aruf invitation I'll go to your house to propose to you directly.
I don't want to love you who don't have a bond, love is a fitrah but I'm afraid to love you out of lust. For that I give you my form and biotad to you, look and read my heresy. I will wait and accept your decision.
Do not forget to pray istikharah yes to ask for instructions to the khaliq.
Wassalamu'alaikum Warahmatullahi.
Warm regards
Aditya Zainul Muttaqin*.
After he finished reading the letter he began to be confused as to whether he should accept or refuse. But Aditya is a man2 who dares to take her ta'aruf without any courtship.
My heart is restless I have to answer what, I don't know what he is, and I don't know him either. I will pray Istikharah first to strengthen my heart (my murmur in heart).
Zahra also went to the bathroom to take ablution, after he finished preparing his face to start praying istikharah.
أصلى سنة الإستخارة ركعتين لله تعالى
Meaning: I intend to pray sunnah istikharah dua rakaat because Allah Ta’ala.
the most appropriate time to do Istikhara prayers is at the time of the first one-third of the night when finished praying isya' until 22.00 pm. The second third of the night at 22:00 until 01:00 in the morning the atmosphere of the night is usually quieter so that when we do the Istikhara prayer is more concentrated and more solemn. The last third of the night mukai at 01.00 in the morning until the dawn prayer time.
After he did the prayer did not forget Zahra praying for guidance to the owner of the heart.
" O Allah, O Rahman, is this your answer that I have been calling you. If it is true that he is a mate of the servant, give the servant confidence in him, Robb, and strengthen the heart of the servant of Aaminn...
Robbana atina fiddunya Khasanah wafil a khiroti hasanah waqina asza bannar aamin ya robbal alamin."

It did not feel the madrasah exam was over, and also the exam2 of the cottage was also completed. I just first participated in the Imtihan event if at school usually Art Stage or Farewell, well if here is different.
" Wahhh I just joined Imtihan for the first time like this, it was cool also not like the event at my school.
****
All the santri helped for the Imtihan event so that later it had its own impression, therefore this event was made very lively. Usually the event lasts for 3 days.
* The first day is usually filled with openings such as lectures from Kyai2 sepuh.
* The second day is filled with santri kirab events, and
Hadrah Festival at night.
* Third day of the big sister graduation which takes place from morning until evening.
In the imtihan ceremony, the sons and daughters santri are separated except on the second day they will be united but the daughter santri is placed in front, while the son santri is placed behind themselves.
"Aisyahh, Shafira you are called ustdazah" said a santri named Meitha.
" What's up ?" say us at the same time.
" I don't know, you're being told to go there now" he replied.
" Okay, we're going to Utadzah's room, thank you, May".
"iyaa sama2" he said with a smile.
" let's May assalamualaikum".
"wa'alaikumussalam".
I also walk in the room of the ustadzah. On the way to the office we are afraid of being punished by ustadzah, even though we do not violate the rules of pesantren. Our hearts were dug for fear of entering the office.
"Well, I'm afraid" said Shafira.
"Fir sama I'm scared too".
When they arrived at the office, I knocked on the door and said my greetings.
"Assalamualaikum" we both said.
"Wa'alaikumussalam here sits" said Ustadzah Zahra.
We sat together and talked about Imtihan. The length of Zahra's ustadzah tells me. We also began to understand what was said. It turned out that Ustdzah asked them for help to participate in the ceremony imtihan.
"You must practice a lot, yes, for Shafira who recites the holy verse of the Quran must be good and true, and for Aisha to read the meaning of the contents of the holy verse of the Qur'an which will be read by Shafira. Now understand, make the best for the event later" said Ustadzah.
"God willing, we will give our best" I said.
" The spirit for times" ustadzah gave us encouragement, and did not forget with his very beautiful smile.
" Thank you, we say goodbye, assalamualaikum".
"Wa'alaikumussalam".
