I Turned Him in a Third Night

I Turned Him in a Third Night
Part 31 | Prophet Zakariya



“God always grants the prayers of every servant, only the waiting time. Is it sooner or later? That's all God's power.”


♡♡♡


Allah is as close as when the face touches the ground, prostrating itself to the distance between a servant and the Creator. Pray and ask for His forgiveness. When some people sleep so soundly, there are only a few who always meet the Creator. A couple of halal lovers who were in love with their Lord raised their hands, and begged for forgiveness and prayers and hopes that he always offered every night.


Zihan smiled to welcome the hand given by the husband happily


he kissed her, and Gibran kissed her head


wrapped in plain white mukena.


“Do you know the story of Prophet Zakariya?” Gibran asked as he let go of the face wrapped around his wife's head. Zihan shook his head not knowing what it was


asked husband. Gibran smiled and pulled the boy's hair back


wife's ears. “You want to listen to his story?” With great enthusiasm, Zihan


nodding, a sweet smile framed beautifully on her beautiful face.


“Prophet Zakariya As, is a descendant of Prophet Sulaiman As. He is a great scholar


among the Children of Israel. His wife was named Isha. He was 100 years old but he had no children, because his wife was barren, but the Prophet Zakariya


pray to Allah Subhanahu wa ta’ala to give him offspring.”


Zihan smothered his mouth when he heard the word 'puffing' from the lips of the husband, he was afraid of experiencing something similar to the wife of the Prophet Zakaria. But soon he


brushed off the thought with an istigfar chant in his heart. The doctor said


that she had a great opportunity to conceive and give birth. Only time yes, only time has not sided with him. “Do you know what prayer


the Prophet Zechariah to Allah?” Gibran asked his question


stroking the head of Zihan.


With a heart pound and heart no desire to make Zihan nodded his head


spontaneous.  “Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala said: 'That is where Zakaria prayed to her Lord. He said, O my Lord, give me good seed from Your side, verily You are All-Hearing.'Al-qur’an Surah Ali 'Imran verse thirty-eight.” Gibran read it


with a very beautiful heavenly chant that greeted his wife's hearing.


Somehow Zihan's eyes warmed up and the clear circle suddenly escaped just like that


from his eye patch. He now understood what the story meant


told by her husband. “Can I continue, Honey?” ask him then


remove the tears that wet his wife's face. It was with pleasure that Zihan nodded his head. Though fear now struck his heart.


“Then came the Angel Jibril carrying glad news for Prophet Zakariya As.,


as the Word of God says: Then the Angel (Jibril) called Zakariya,


while he was standing in prayer in the mihrab (he said): "Surely Allah delights you with the birth (of your son) of Yahya, which justifies the sentence (which comes) from God, becoming a bond, a bond, restraint (from lust) and a prophet including the descendants of the righteous." Al-qur’an Surah Ali Imran verse 39.” Gibran ended his story with a big smile.


“God will grant the prayer of every earnest servant, for prayer can change all things. So we must believe and always pray as did the Prophet Zakariya,”, he said, holding both hands of his wife. “Prophet Zakariya alone who is old age of God love trust to have a baby. We must believe that God will also


granting our prayers and wishes,” continued to bring the body of the wife into his arms.

Lean on the sofa with chest


the husband field made Zihan's heart and feelings a little calmer. Although not


can he concluded that the request of his in-laws managed to drain the soul and


body. The fear of losing the moment of togetherness with the husband makes him more reluctant to just rise from his most comfortable position. He begged God to give him a little longer


“Why, hm?” the tan is so soft


with elusan right at the top of his wife's head. Zihan just survived with


the echo, enjoy the sweet treatment of the husband who might not later


he can feel it again.


“Don't think too much. When


nor will I ever be willing to share my heart with another woman,”


his words were like so understanding the anxiety his wife was feeling.


Zihan looked up when he no longer felt


soft hands of the husband. “If it is the best God willing me


sincerely, Mas,” said Zihan who was so conditional on despair. How strong


even he opposes and opposes destiny if indeed the path is like that,


he could do nothing else but be sincere and accept it with


roomy chest.


Hearing the words of the wife makes


Gibran rose from his leaning position on the head of the sofa. Holding both shoulders


the wife faces him. “Not one woman is willing


dividing husband. Your lips may be able to say sincerely but your heart cannot lie that you feel hurt.”


Women who are no longer single


it was only able to look down, hiding the look of a face full of sadness from the bead of her husband's eyes that was staring at her so sharply full of intimidation. He wanted to be selfish and not care about his in-laws' crazy requests, but it was okay for the shadows to always be present in his memory.


Gently Gibran pulled the chin taper


the wife, cupping his wife's face then said, “You are the soul mate that God has chosen to accompany me, accompany my every step, like


we've been through grief together and I'll never be that easy to take off


or share the place you have visited for anyone. With or


without descendants we will remain together, for the purpose of my asking you is not the matter of children and descendants but to perfect half


my religion and make our relationship as a field of reward,” he said with


a sweet smile full of sincerity.


The struggle to get to the point


it's not easy and he won't just back down just because


request not to enter his mother. He made a promise before the Divine


and it will not be so easy to break down the sacred vows he has recited.


Marriage is not just about looking for


descent or get momongan because the marriage is actually worship. Worship and commandments that come down directly from the Creator. Child


just a complement to undergo a household heresy, a gift if you have it. If not, learn to practice patience.
