PREMARITAL

Request Approved

The day of application has passed, now Sakha is also Shara busy with their respective affairs. The two families are busy taking care of the needs ahead of Shara's wedding with Sakha, but they are also not allowed to meet first until the wedding day arrives.

"Umi, can Ara help you?" ask Shara.

"No, you just rest. The bride-to-be should look fresh when the contract later," said Umi Merry.

"But Umi, Ara is bored. Umi has a lot to do, right?" ask Shara.

"Honey, there's Auntie too. Already, you just enter the room again," pinta Umi Merry.

Shara sighed, she was really bored. A week before the wedding, Shara had to vacate all her activities. Now Shara can only relax at her home, sometimes she also plays her phone.

Shara's face suddenly changed, when she found a message sent by Sakha to her.

"Asnalaluallaikum, Ara. What do? Is Akha bothering you?"

_Sakha_

Shara quickly replies to the message, with a feeling of pleasure now her fingers are dancing nimble on the keyboard.

"*Wa'allaikumussalam, Acha. Ara was just sitting there, bored with no activities. Akha is not bothering, though. Oh yeah, what is Akha himself doing?"

_Shara*_

Sakha smilingly gets a reply to a message from Shara, she quickly replies to the message. As Sakha knows, the woman does not like, if her partner long in replying to the message. So Sakha tries not to keep Shara waiting.

"Akha is thinking of a future wife,"

Sakha replied to the message by giving the impression of being flabby, with a chuckle she sent a reply to Shara.

Shara who received the reply also chuckled.

"Hus, istigfar. Do not imagine, even sin will arise," Shara gently reprimanded in her message.

Sakha smiled, she felt so grateful to get a wife like Shara who clung to her religion.

*A hadith narrated by Imam Al-Bukhari and the Muslim Imam of Abu Hurairah RA's friend, Rasulullah SAW said:

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: ” تُنْكَحُ الْمَرْأَةُ لِأَرْبَعٍ: لِمَالِهَا، وَلِحَسَبِهَا، وَلِجَمَالِهَا، وَلِدِينِهَا، فَاظْفَرْ بِذَاتِ الدِّينِ تَرِبَتْ يَدَاكَ

From Abu Hurairah RA, Rasulullah SAW said: “Women are generally married for 4 things: her property, her family, her beauty, and her religion. Therefore, choose one who has a religion, you will be lucky*.

Sakha remembered Bima's request that Shara want to guide Airin to emigrate, she immediately asked permission to call so that she could be more free to talk about her intentions.

"Ra, can I call? there's something Akha wants to talk about," Sakha immediately sends the message, and she quickly gets a reply from Shara who allows her to call.

"Assalamallaikum, Ra." Sakha greets.

"Wa'allaikumussalam, why Kha?" ask Shara behind the phone.

"Look, Ra. Emm, are you willing to guide someone who wants to emigrate?" sakha asked carefully.

"someone? who really? And why did Akha ask Ara this?" ask Shara.

"Emm, because Akha thinks Ara is the right person." Sakha.

"Whom are you?" shara asked increasingly curious.

"He is Airin" Sakha replied hesitantly.

For a moment Shara was silent, she did not understand why Sakha asked her to help Airin in migrating. However, it is not good to refuse the request of someone who wants to improve himself.

"Ra, how? But if Ara's objecting is fine, too" asked Sakha, she also felt bad for Shara.

"I want to" Shara replied.

Sakha was shocked to hear Shara's answer, she did not expect that his future wife would help her ex-boyfriend to migrate.

"Yes, I want to help her." Shara confirmed the answer.

"But not in the near future, because now Ara is not allowed to leave the house" he added.

Sakha understands the condition of Shara, indeed in some customs forbid the bride-to-be to stay at home, or the term in pingit.

"Akha understands, Akha will talk about this to Bima." Sakha.

"Male? What does this have to do with Bima?" ask Shara.

"Yes, it was Bima who asked Akha to talk about this to Ara" Sakha replied.

Shara felt a little relieved, so Sakha might not be in direct contact with Airin. Maybe what Shara is feeling right now is jealousy, but she doesn't realize it.

"Alright then" said Shara.

"Yes, I'll close it first. Thank you, Ra. Assalamallaikum" said Sakha.

"Together, wa'allaikumussalam." Shara turns off the call from Sakha and puts her phone back next to the bed.

"Hopefully this won't have a bad impact on my relationship with Sakha, think positive Ara!" The cry inwardly.

When the wedding is just a matter of days, do not be surprised if suddenly comes someone who is instantly able to shake the heart. Your relationship and your partner will be disturbed by a third person who often even comes from the past. Be careful before acting, always involve your partner in every decision.

***

Sakha intends to contact Bima to let her know if Shara agrees to her request, although in her heart she is a little anxious, but as much as possible she still thinks positively.

"Hello, assalamallaikum, Kha." Bima swept first behind the phone.

"Wa'allaikumussalam, Bim." Sakha also grieves.

"What's calling me, Kha?" ask Bima.

"It's okay, just to let you know that Shara agreed to your request" Sakha replied.

"really? Alhamdulillah," said Bima.

"Yes, right. But, actually I was a little worried Bim," said Sakha.

"What are you worried about?" ask Bima.

"Emm, I'm just afraid that this will cause problems in my household later, because Shara can guide Airin if our marriage has been carried out" said Sakha.

Bima understood that in the worry by Sakha, he also understood their current condition.

"God willing, nothing bad will happen to your marriage. Airin already wants to change," said Bima reassured.

"Yes, I hope so too. You know for yourself how I fight for Shara" said Sakha.

"Yes, I understand that." Bima understands.

"Oh yeah, how's the studio?" sakha asked, for the next few days he could not help Bima in their photo studio.

"Calm down, the studio is safe. Clients are under control, you just focus on your wedding." Bima tried to convince Sakha.

"Thank God, thank you. Bim, you are indeed my best friend" said Sakha sincerely.

"Together, obviously I'm the best. Because your friend is just me, "Bima laughed, Sakha laughed too. It is beautiful if we have friends who are always there and bring us good.

Friendships are not made with special people. However, we are special because we are friendly. It is the friend who privileges us.

Be grateful if you have a friend who is always privileged, and leads you to the truth.
