It's up to God

The Big Plan Ali

After a long journey, Ali finally arrived in Indonesia. His heart was full of excitement because it would soon meet the family in the boarding house Al Fathonah. He has longed for moments with them, especially after so long not coming home.

Ali is planning a surprise for her family. He did not tell them that he was going home and this would be an unforgettable moment for everyone. Ali contacted his nephews, Hafiz and Hamzah, to involve them in his plan. They gladly agreed to join in this adventure.

Ali arrived at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport, Jakarta, and immediately proceeded to Hamzah's lodging in Semarang. Hafiz, who arrived earlier than Cairo, had also reached Semarang and was preparing to join his uncle, Ali.

Arriving at the inn, they met Hamzah, who had prepared everything neatly. They plan each step carefully to make sure their surprise works.

On the appointed day, Ali, Hafiz, and Hamzah left for the boarding house of Al Fathonah. They choose the right time, when the family is together. As they arrived at the cottage, the three men peered from afar and looked at their families.

The family at the cottage is unaware of the presence of Ali, Hafiz, and Hamzah. They talked and laughed along with a cheerful atmosphere. Then, with hearts pounding, Ali, Hafiz, and Hamzah approached the door of the cottage with slow steps.

When they entered, a big surprise happened. The family who had been gathered was shocked to see Ali, Hafiz, and Hamzah standing in front of them. No one could say anything for a few seconds, before they all burst out in excitement and happiness.

Nadira crying happily. "Hafiz, Hamza! How much I miss you both." she said, then closed her eyes and hugged her sons tightly.

Hafiz smiled widely. "Mama, we also miss Mama and Papa very much, as well as the others. This is the moment we've been waiting for."

Hamzah smiled as he nodded. "Yes, Ma. We are so happy to be reunited with our beloved family."

Meanwhile, on the other side of the same space, Lutfi reached out to Ali. "Ali, son! You can finally go home too. I've missed you so much."

"Dad, I miss you a lot too" Ali said. Then, they hugged each other tightly, while their eyes were filled with tears of happiness.

Ammar witnessed the moment with haru. He could not speak anymore, but his smile had already told him that Ammar was very happy because his family had gathered like now, although one day, someone would go back because of their respective affairs. At least, he felt an incredible happiness.

In the midst of the happiness of the Ammar family, Khodijah appears in the shadows. A woman who gave birth to Muhammad Ali Baraqbah. "I know how much you miss them, Lutfi. They are the greatest gift God has given to this family. Come on, hug them warmly. Give me the happiness I can't give you while I'm still with you, especially Ali who I left behind as a child." Then, the shadow disappeared, but Ali felt the presence of his uminya.

Ali smiled in the ashes. "Umi's. Forgive me for not being able to let go of you and not being able to accept the presence of Umi Aisyah, but I have so far, I have been sincere with my destiny, Mi. May we be reunited at His side. Aamiin ya Rabbal 'natural, '" his inner self.

Ammar embraced Hafiz and Hamzah affectionately, shedding happy tears.

Aisyah smiled happily. "Hafiz, Hamzah, you have grown into great young men. I'm so grateful to see you back." Then, he looked at Hanin and Hania with haru. "And you, Hanin and Hania, you have two wonderful sisters."

Because the twins can only laugh like a two-month-old baby. They had not been able to respond by talking and looking like people gathered in the room.

At one month of age, babies generally begin to experience significant visual development. Although his vision was still not fully matured, they were already able to see and respond to his surroundings in some way.

At this age, babies can start to focus on objects that are in close proximity, about 20 to 30 cm from their faces. They will look at the faces of those around them and begin to recognize parents or family members who often interact with them.

In addition, at this age, babies also begin to recognize sounds and are able to respond by moving their head or turning toward the source of the sound. They may also respond to touch and may show signs of pleasure or displeasure through their facial expressions or body movements.

Although infant vision development and response at one month of age are still limited, they are already beginning to actively observe and respond to their surroundings. It is important for parents to provide good visual stimulation, such as using brightly colored toys or interacting directly with the baby through eye contact and a smile, to aid in the development of their vision.

Everyone expresses happiness and love in that moment. An atmosphere full of fun, laughter, and jokes filled the room of Al Fathonah boarding school. They realize how precious and happy they can be together as a whole family. This moment would be an irreplaceable memory in their lives.

Tears flowed between the reunited families. Ali and Hafiz shared their experiences while abroad, while Hamzah, despite being a regional child, still lives in Indonesia. He was close, but rarely came home because he was busy in college. Meanwhile, the family gives warm hugs and congratulations on their return.

After this moment of surprise, Ali, Hafiz, and Hamzah spend time with the family in the boarding house Al Fathonah. They do a lot of activities together, share stories, and enjoy moments of togetherness that have long been missed.

These surprises not only make the family happy in the cottage, but also strengthen their bond as a family that loves and supports each other. They are grateful to be back together after a long time apart and share their life experiences.

The return of Ali, Hafiz, and Hamzah and the surprise they gave to the family in the boarding house of Al Fathonah became an unforgettable moment and imprinted in their memories. Family togetherness and love continue to flow in their hearts. Nadira and her family feel very grateful for the gift.
