Khairil: True Hope & Love

Chapter 4 | Falling in Love Never Wrong

...“Falling in love is never wrong....

...It's just that we drop it too often on the wrong person....

...Because love is His nature. All living beings, surely Allah brings love to him.”...

...****************...

That morning, there were only Jizah and Khairil. While Zurran, early in the morning after the dawn prayer he had gone to the boarding school to meet Zain. Delivering the order of his pregnant wife.

Jizah saw there was a restlessness in her son Khairil. The boy kept repeatedly going in and out of the house just to check the electric token, which was actually okay, was still filled normally.

"You why bang? keep going in and out of the house. There's a rule, son, don't be original." Say Jizah while inserting sequins into needles. Even though he was already dusk, the habit he could not escape just like that.

"Abang also does not know why you go back and forth like a gini, Umma." Khairil answered scratching his nape that was not itchy and it made Jizah more confused

"Sweety you mah bang. Yes, you are sitting next to Umma" Jizah and Khairil said. "Try ye istighfar, hushnudzhon be with Allah, for the bad thoughts try." Jizah

Khairil sat down beside Jizah and then he rested his head on Jizah's lap. "It feels much more comfortable than the expensive pillows in the mall." Inner Khairil

"You why Hhmm? it's not that yesterday's business is done, is it?" Jizah gently rubbed the head of the son

"Allah can be dealt with and God willing will not repeat itself. But you feel, Brother's heart is pounding after coming home from there, Umma." Khairil said expressing the anxiety that was in him

Jizah frowned

"Did you see or meet a woman you knew yesterday?" Ask Jizah

"Kok Umma know if you see and meet a woman?"

"Has this son of Umma never lost his name in love?" Jizah asked a little smile

"Umma knows for himself, from the beginning what you did was just delinquency and delinquency. I don't know how to fall in love. Maybe you've been, but you're sober." Khairil

Jizah smiled at Khairil's words. Apparently, his son did not realize that he was in love. Either Khairil is plain or how.

"Now you're not aware anymore, if you're feeling the name in love." Jizah said as soon as Khairil sat straight up staring at him

Khairil looked at the face of his first love. The woman who gave birth to him with great struggle. A mother who can always read the thoughts and feelings of her children. He was always sure, what was said from the lips of the Umma was always right.

...----------------...

"Fell in love? is that a mistake?" Khairil

Simple words from his lips Umma, it was able to make many questions appear in the mind of Khairil. Now he needs an answer to that simple word, with something special.

After several times considering, he finally set himself to say goodbye to Jizah went to Tangerang to meet his other brothers, as well as want to find answers from what he thought.

"Umma, you're saying goodbye to Tangerang huh? want to meet Ammi Hadi, continue to run out that Abang also wants to go to Jakarta to meet his father (Rendy). I haven't been there for a long time." Speak Khairil carefully

Jizah who was reading the book immediately took off her glasses and looked at her son.

"Why not say the same Umma from earlier? kan Umma can get ready from earlier bang." Said Jizah who immediately got up from her seat walking towards her room

"Why would Umma do it?" Ask Khairil

"Yes Umma want to get ready to come with you bang. Umma wasn't there for a long time either." Answer Jizah

"Kalo Umma come along, I can't ask Ammi donk many things." Inner Khairil

...----------------...

In the end, Khairil went with Jizah. Meanwhile, Zurran did not participate because there are classes in the pesantren that he must follow.

Arriving at Hadi's residence, it turns out that the middle-aged man was relaxing on the porch of the house alone.

"Assalamualaik."

"Vaalaikumsalam. Oh, my God, it is you? kirain who, if there's a car stopped in front of the house." Said Hadi who was still sitting in his chair

"Yes bang, I'm sorry we didn't tell you when we came here." Said Jizah kissing the back of Hadi's hand and hugging him

Brother sister difference of two years that brushed aside long-time miss present. After Mufid's departure, Jizah and her children rarely came to Tangerang.

Not to forget Khairil also kissed the back of his uncle's hand, reminding him of the figure of Mufid whose age is not far from Hadi.

"Let's go in, Rifka's sick in the room." Hadi said that Jizah just went in looking for her sister-in-law

"Ammah Rifka is sick what Ammi is?" Ask Khairil worried

"It's old, so mince its sauces." Answer Hadi

Now the two men of different generations are sitting in the guest room. Accompanied by two cups of warm tea and a plate of snacks that Jizah had brought. Hadi could see there was unease in his nephew.

"If anyone wants to be asked? omnipresent, Ammi continues to Ammi replied if you know God willing." Hadi's words made Khairil smile

"Ammi, kayak Umma. You know before you know." Khairil chuckles

"Just be careful." Elak Hadi's

Both of them were silent until finally Khairil ventured to ask about his heart.

"Ammy?" Call Khairil slowly

"Yes? you are calm, God is safe."

Khairil hesitantly asked. "Is falling in love a mistake?"

Hadi chuckles at hearing that, he knows that his nephew too often makes too many mistakes to ask if falling in love is also a mistake?

"Falling in love is never wrong, as long as we put it right. Love is the most beautiful nature of God for all His creatures. But, you must remember! many people make a big mistake that starts with love. Well, suppose you ask about love and like the first time you fell in love? Ammi wants to tell you something about love that will not make you feel hurt in the end. Can you guess?" Hadi then asked

"What is it, a parent's love for his child or vice versa?" Guess Khairil

"less precise. A parent and a child give each other love. But, often they make an unwitting heartache." Hadi said

"What did Ammi do?" Ask Khairil curiously

"That is the love of a servant to Allah. Love for God is the true love of every human being for the Most Love. For when a Muslim loves Allah, he will have His protection and forgiveness. And of course, Allah will not make His servants feel the pain of loving Him." Hadi

"Other case if we love creatures, especially those that are not halal for us. It could be the beginning of the appearance of a sin, if it is excessive but. You pinter asked, fall in love wrong or not? not like Umma you used to be, who was buried by himself without asking is true or not." Hadi who now lowered his voice

"Indeed, whose early Umma fell in love with?"

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

...Q.Y.S. Al Baqarah verse 165...

...وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَشَدُّ حُبًّا لِلَّهِ...

...Meaning: Those who believe are more strongly in love with Allah....
