Jaka Someh's
Chapter 21. A Wejangan.
Two days and two nights Jaka Someh was unconscious. By the third day, his consciousness was gradually recovering. When he opened his eyes, he suddenly felt dizzy, the world and its contents as if swirling. Jaka Someh closed his eyes again.
After his dizziness had started to disappear, he reopened his eyes. He realized that now he was in a small room, in a hut whose walls were made of obsolete bamboo cubicles. Jaka Someh felt astonished how he could be in that place, he tried to remember new events in nature. After a while, his memory began to recover.
He remembered, the last time he was mired in the hillsides after fighting with karuhun eyes. He had been defeated by the karuhun eyes and was now suffering from a very serious internal wound. Suddenly he came back to realize his existence in a foreign hut, in his heart he said,
"I am where is this? Am I dead and now in the afterlife? But, koq this place is like a shack room huh? ".
Suddenly the door of the hut opened, a middle-aged man walked into his room, he smiled at Jaka Someh as he said, saying,
"Have you realized jang, ? Alhamdulillah atuh, three days of fainting, Abah found ujang lying near the river under the karuhun hill, the condition of the end of the time was severe, he said, so the body directly test abah balur use the medicinal ingredients that abah make, did the tea test run out of the fight ?"
Jaka Someh felt grateful to have been saved by the man, he said to the man who had saved him to express his gratitude,
"Thank you for saving my life, well, how can I thank you and repay you, , please excuse me for who tea, koq can stay here?"
The man laughed, saying,
"Hehehe, it just so happens or jang, yes it is our obligation to help each other, oh yes abah tea commonly called Ki Thiban, abah stay here, abah stay here, incidentally abah happy to collect various plants on this hill to be used as medicinal herbs. Abah's own house is actually in the village that is under this hill jang".
Jaka Someh once again thanked Ki Thiban,
"One more time I say thank you, brother, for helping me".
Ki Thiban simply replied with a smile. Suddenly Jaka Someh remembered the story of Mr. Supar about the great physician who had helped the wounded warrior, in his heart he said,
" It is fortunate that I am still safe and helped by ki Thiban, I believe he is certainly the grandson of ki Sapri who has helped the first karuhun swordsman, I am sure, fortunately I was able to meet the Taliban in person, "
Jaka Someh was silent. Ki Thiban said to Jaka Someh,
"Now drink first! medicinal herbs from this abah, so that the wound will recover quickly and the health of the test can return as usual, "
Jaka Someh obeyed Ki Thiban's words, he also drank a medicinal herb from the Taliban. The medicine was bitter but contained a warm taste in his body.
"Thank you so much that battery helped me, otherwise I might have died, ".
Jaka Someh thanked KiThiban.
"hehehe, equally speaking, must not speak so, the matter of life and death is already there that governs, namely the Gusti of God, the Lord, aki mah just carry out the duty of the battery as fellow humans to help each other, "
Ki Thiban smiled at Jaka Someh.
"Oh yeah, the real tea test why would it hurt so badly like this?"
Ki Thiban asked Jaka Someh.
Got the question ki Thiban, Jaka Someh was silent for a moment, after sighing, he recounted his experience of meeting with the eyes of Karuhun and dueling with him.
"I lost a fight with someone called as eyang karuhun, aki. He was really powerful, all this time I had never lost during the fight, many villains and black swordsmen that I had destroyed, but it turned out that his power was above mine, "
Jaka Someh praised the devotion of Eyang Karuhun who had defeated him to near death. Jaka Someh also told about his wandering self and had eradicated and killed many criminals who were considered to be troubling the community. Ki Thiban just nodded his head.
"Jang, I also actually feel concerned about the condition of our society, poverty and criminality are rampant in various parts of the country, many people are suffering from victims of poverty and crime, he said, the strong oppress the weak, as if what applies is the law of the jungle but to be honest I do not agree that you can use it to kill people, pity you! even though they are criminals, if indeed they can still be advised yes enough in nasehati, taught good and useful knowledge, and, if you are forced to do it in a kanuragan way you should try to beat them enough, without having to kill, unless there is no other way, ".
Ki Thiban continued his words, again,
"Jang Someh, there are two types of enemies who both have different ways of dealing with them. The first is the enemy of the human kind and the second is the demon who comes from the nation of the jinn who has become his ally the devil.
To deal with people who are hostile to us, God advises us to be muhsonaah and ikhsanah to them. Muhsonaah is by giving good advice, giving persuasion, good seduction, teaching knowledge or even by negotiating so that they no longer continue their bad or evil deeds to us. While ikhsan is to do good physically such as giving a good gift, lightening the burden of his life, helping him from distress and all that, whose nature is to be able to give good to him. The hope is that they can return to human fitness that is to forgive each other, love each other and be able to respect each other and help among us all.
Do good to them, so that they can change the habits and habits of the enemy who always bothers us.
Based on the Quran as in verse 96 of the following letter of the Almuminuun,
"Idfa' billatii hiya ahsanus sayyiata nahnu a'lamu bimaa yashifuun"
In the language translation, the meaning of the verse is:
The verse means more or less like this, jang somebody:
"Reply to those who do bad to you in a better way and morals, by forgiving them and being patient with their reproach and tyranny. We know better what they have accused Allah of idiosyncrasies and lies, and what they have revealed to you is an inappropriate accusation, as in the case of the prophet Muhammad, the Quraysh used to accuse the prophet Muhammad of being a sorcerer or a madman, even though he was a messenger of Allah"
The 199 letter of al Araf also supports that understanding,
"Khuzdil-'afwa wa'mur bil-'urfi wa a'ri 'anil-jahilin"
Meaning
"Be you who forgive and call on people to do good (macruf) and turn away from the foolish"
Badness should not be countered by ugliness but be patient, repay ugliness with kindness. So that the world can be peaceful and peaceful. It is one of our efforts to realize the religion of Allah rahmatan lil alamiin.
But different for our enemies who are demons from the jinn who have become a demon army, they really want to always make humans to stray from the path of truth, so Allah says in Araf's letter verse 200 about how to deal with them
Wa imma yanzagannaka minasy-shaithani nazgun fasta'iz billah, innahakih sami'un 'alim
Meaning
"And when the devil befalls you with temptation or distraction, ask God for protection"
So jang Someh, if the enemy we face is Satan who is not physically visible to our birth eyes, then the only way to deal with it is just by praying, plead with the Lord of all nature. Protect from the evil deeds of Satan, for Allah is the Creator, the possessor and ruler of all creatures, including Satan,
So to face demons is certainly different from facing human enemies. We no longer repay evil deeds by giving good. For Satan is indeed our true enemy who will continue to seek to harm us, to lead us away from the path of truth, there is no way they will love and do good to us even if we do good to them like giving them a gift.
Satan does not receive a gift and cannot be influenced by the good we give. Their nature is evil and nothing can keep them from us except God who created them. Believe and trust Jang, because the power of Satan will not be able to reach in people who ask for protection to the Lord of all nature, because the power of Satan will not be able to reach in people who ask for protection to the Lord of all nature,
Therefore jang Someh, do not make Satan a lover but make Satan an enemy that we must stay away from, Take refuge in Allah SWT. Do not fear them, but fear the One who created them.
Man is the most perfect creature of God. Even God created the prophet Adam, our Father, directly by using God's own Hand, in contrast to the other beings of God, God created them through His Will, and God created them by His will, just by just saying the phrase "kun" then they become creatures according to His will,
JangSomeh I advise, do not override the murder of the people anymore! "
Ki Thiban paused for a moment, then resumed his teachings.
"Jang, the life of man is not a trivial item, even to animals we should not be recklessly killing, can kill if there is a reason, even to kill, as for us to eat or because we are worried about the danger. We slaughter chickens, goats or buffaloes so that we can eat their meat, so that we have the energy to continue our precious lives, we can kill snakes or other dangerous animals, for fear that they will harm or kill us, but for human life, we should try to guard and appreciate it, the Law of Qisos is as a symbol that we should not carelessly eliminate the lives of others, he said, if it is to kill without haq then the penalty that is worth for sin is with the death penalty, that is the most appropriate in eliminating human lives, the punishment of human life, The law of the qisos is actually to protect the life of every human being, so that we are always careful not to do harm to others, let alone to kill him. For that Jang, if you can make our lives useful for the life of society in general, maintain life so that it can be sustainable, not just to eliminate the lives of others, uphold justice! and prosper mankind! in order to live in peace in the service of Allah, the Most Glorious, Allah created these creatures not to be wasted, "
Jaka someh gasped at the sight of Ki Thiban. He could only nod his head as a sign of agreeing that he also valued the values of life.
"Yes kyai, thank you for the gesture, God willing from now on I will try to avoid murder, ".
Ki thiban smiled at Jaka someh's words. Ki Thiban continued his words
"Actually if we are able to realize a sovereign government, which has a just and upright law, which is supported by good power, God willing will create a civil society life, he said, where each other can respect each other, get along well and understand each other's rights and obligations, so that the level of criminality is also God willing will be reduced considerably, people can live well and feel safe in peace, ".
Jaka someh was silent listening to Ki Thiban's words. Somehow he felt respect for Ki Thiban, especially when Someh heard that Ki Thiban was also a kyai who had studied religion in mecca or medina. He lived there for about ten years.
After a few weeks, Jaka Someh was back to health as usual. His wounds were already one hundred percent healed. But he had no intention of leaving the place. He asked Ki Thiban for permission to study religion as well as medical science. Ki Thiban also allowed the desire of Jaka Someh. It is fortunate that Jaka someh can explore the science of religion from Ki Thiban. He also studied medicine.
Jaka someh is widely introduced with various types of plants that are considered to have properties for health and treatment. His heart was so happy, since childhood Jaka Someh was fond of the world of plants and now he has the opportunity to learn the various benefits or efficacy contained in these plants. Different plants then different substances content and benefits for the human body.
