The day has been shown at 11 noon, but because it is winter, the atmosphere in Saudi is not too stinging especially in this Thaif Area, which is always cool and comfortable every day.
The Sultan smiled happily, because when his eyes opened, in front of him was a very beautiful sight for him.
Gently, her hands began to guerrilla over the pretty face in front of her.
"O Allah, praise your infinite gratitude, for you have always been generous to Your sinful servant"
The Sultan's tears flowed as images of his sin flashed through his mind.
Maymunah who just opened her eyes was surprised to see the husband with tears.
"Sultan, what's wrong with you?" He tried to get up and pull the blanket over his body.
"Dear, wake up. Hmm no, just a little more about the past. I am very grateful to Allah, even though I always sinned and always played women, but Allah gave me a wife like a diamond, like you "Revealed Sultan Iirih.
Maymunah smiled as she stroked her husband's cheek.
"May Allah accept your repentance." She turned and kissed her husband.
"Hmm why are only the eyebrows kissed? the others also doong" The Sultan said like a child to make Maymunah giggle.
"It's still less.adduuuh my stomach"
Suddenly Maymunah's stomach feels cramped.
"Ah baby, why? why stomach?" Sultan asked anxiously while holding his wife's stomach which now felt straight and rather hard.
"Come, try you elus deh.maybe he miss you, right from yesterday you did not greet him.got sniff my stomach."
"ooh that's it, baby.don't sulk ya.baba Darling you really are" he said while kissing Maymunah's stomach.
"Udah is down now.yeah, I want to take a shower first, after that I want to cook breakfast. What do you want to eat?"
"Don't bother baby. I'll buy outside, now I'm going down. Later after that you invite Sumayya to eat yes. I'll talk to him later but in front of you. I'd like to inform you of my decision regarding our actions"
"Hmm ok, what did you decide?..Whatever your decision is, we'll face it all together"
"Thank you, baby. I'm proud of you, yeah, I'm gone first.. Oh yes, tell Sumayya, if she wants to go out of the room, ask her to wear her abaya and niqob"
Maymunah's eyebrows frowned at her husband's orders, but she just nodded.
After the Sultan left, Maymunah immediately cleared himself. He did not clean the house today, because last night, while waiting for the Sultan, and to eliminate his turmoil, he busied himself by cleaning the house and washing clothes until almost dawn.
Tok Tok Tok Tok's..
Sumayya was seen knocking on the door.
The Maymunah who had finished dressing and putting on makeup immediately rushed to open the door.
"Sumayya, what's wrong?" Ask her with a friendly smile.
Sumayya instead answered, but was stunned to see the appearance of Maymunah which was not as usual he saw with a closed gamis.
After living together in an apartment, Maymunah is always dressed up sexy.
This time she wears an armless knee-length dress with hair on the booth and a slight makeup polish on her face, she looks like a world-class model.
"Sumayya, what's wrong with you?" Maymunah asked once again, to make Sumayya amazed from her daydream.
"Eh ..hmm I just want the name, has the Sultan given his decision?" Finally Sumayya asked as well.
Maymunah smiled softly.
"Oh yes, he said after dinner he will talk to you, and said his decision.hmm but he said later you have to wear an abaya" Maymunah replied gently and with a friendly smile.
Hearing Maymunah's words, Sumayya bowed sadly, because she understood.with the Sultan telling her to wear the niqob when they were about to speak, it meant that the Sultan would not give her a chance.
"Do you know what the decision is?" Sumayya asked again, even though she had guessed.
Maymunah just shook her head.
"She hasn't told us yet, she went out to find food for us"
Sumayya lowered her head, her tears began to flow.
"He will divorce me,
aren't they? she must be disgusted with me.hik him hik" Sumayya started crying.
Maymunah looked at him with pity.
"I don't know the decision, I've made it clear, no, that even if his wife and frankly I don't want this polygamy, but I won't intervene with my husband in making the decision. I only give opinions according to religious views. But even if he divorces you, it is not because of your disgust, but because religion forbids a man from marrying a woman who is pregnant or there is a possibility that she is pregnant..Because it is after divorce, Islam requires there is an Iddah time. " Tutur Maymunah softly.
Sumayya gets more and more hiccuped.
"I don't really want this, either, but I'm just afraid of getting divorced .I had to deal with both of my parents, I was afraid to tell them everything. You don't know, my brother is very hard.I'm afraid.hik hik hik"
Maymunah's chest seemed to be crowded to hear the words of Sumayya.
" Sumayya, I have told you many times, if we give up all our affairs to God, then God will give a way out that will make you happy. Leave everything to God.
Do you know?, every sin, there will be consequences that we have to face. Either in the world, or in the hereafter. There are those who receive in the world and the hereafter, and some who receive it only in the hereafter. And if the man repents, God will give the consequences of the sin of the man in the world, and will set him free in the hereafter.
Now I ask, which one do you want to choose? do you want the consequences of the Hereafter or will you repent, and in sha Allah you will be free in the Hereafter..?
If you want to be freed from the consequences of sin in the hereafter, you must prepare your mind to accept the consequences in the world..
And you must remain patient if Allah gives you the most severe trials of your life, for you are sincere, and you remain in the way of God after... In sha Allah, it will be the kifarat of your sin in the end"
"Yes, in sha Allah, then I go to the room first"
After Sumayya entered, Maymunah went to the central room to wait for the Sultan.
"Assalamualaikum, dear.." Sapa Sultan while carrying plastic containing ready meals.
"Greetings alaikum, .." Maymunah answered while taking the plastic out of her husband's hand and helping to put it on the dining table.
"Ma sha Allah, my wife today is very beautiful" Praised Sultan after seeing Maymunah's clothes.
"So if yesterday wasn't pretty?"
"Haha.ya not so. I mean you today look sexy.."
"Are I fat?"
"Geez, dear.why do my compliments always get misinterpreted?"
"Biarin.huee" Tukas Maymunah as he poked his tongue like a child who was rubbing against his friend..
"Dear, don't melt rich that way, tar how if I'm lilaf and kiss you here"
Maymunah laughed at the Sultan's words.
"Yes, did you bring this food to Sumayya huh, or do you want to eat with her, let me eat alone here?" Tell the Sultan while offering plastic containing food.
"Hmm I'll drop you off, I'll ask you how Sumayya wants, if you want to eat with me or alone"
Maymunah immediately rushed to Sumayya's room and gave the food the Sultan bought.
After they finished eating and praying, Maymunah took Sumayya to the living room and told Sumayya to wear her veil and abaya.
"Sit down, the Sultan is still praying in the room. I'll get some water first huh"
Sumayya simply nodded and obeyed Maymunah's orders.
After a few minutes, the Sultan finally appeared and greeted them.
"Assalamu alaikum, sorry to wait a long time, how are you Sumayya?" Sapa Sultan while sitting in front of his two wives.
Sumayya just looked down, there was a sense of uncertainty in her, there was shame and guilt mixed in her heart.
"Alaikum salam warohmatulloh wa barokatuh. Alhamdulilah ala kulli p." Sumayya replied with a bow.
"OK, get to the point. Sumayya, I've heard your story from Maymunah, and I've made up my mind for it.
But before I say, I want to say that my decision is purely from my heart, and there is no element of intervention from my wife Maymunah."
Sumayya nodded her head.
"Well, by saying Bismillah, I will tell you my decision. I am Sultan bin Abdullah on this day decided to drop three talaq on my wife Sumayya bin Abdurrahman." Said Sultan lantang.
Djder..
It felt like there was lightning striking Sumayya's chest upon hearing that, even though she had expected it, but she still felt hurt.
Sumayya could not hold back her tears anymore, she lowered her head and cried for a mouthful.
Maymunah who was sorry to see the state of the honey immediately approached and held Sumayya's hand.
"Sumayya, you must be strong and sincere in accepting all of this ." He said as he clasped Sumayya's hand tightly.
"Yes, I sincerely Maymunah, because I also know myself, there is no way a woman like me will get a hik hik hik spot" Sumayya replied amid her sobbing.
"Astagfirullah Sumayya, you should never think so, I'm sure the Sultan took this decision not because it demeans you. right, Sultan? Maymunah asked her husband.
"Yes, Sumayya. By Allah, I have not humbled you in the least. I made this decision because you said, you're sorry, you did that forbidden thing about a month ago. And that means there you are still not free from the possibility of getting pregnant. And if that happened, wouldn't it be very fatal as a result?..And it is also forbidden in our religion, to marry a woman who is likely to become pregnant is haram, Sumayya. I hope you can understand that" Sultan tried to explain again.
"I understand, I'm just scared .on my parents.I'm afraid they'll get mad at me after hearing your reason for yelling at me"
"If it's that, I promise my wife and I will keep your disgrace a secret, but I'm sorry I'll keep telling my mom. Not to incriminate you, but so that my mother wouldn't throw this mistake at my wife. Because if you don't know the reason, she's gonna blame my wife Maymunah. But don't worry, I guarantee my mother will keep it a secret from others" replied the Sultan.
"Well, can I ask for one thing?" Ask Sumayya.
Sultan nodded.
"Say!"
"Let me stay here as long as I'm not ready to explain to my family" Sumayya said.
The Sultan was confused to answer.
"Darling, what do you think ?" Ask the Sultan to Maymunah.
"All right, I let you in here, but it's only been a week. Later the Sultan who will go to his mother's house or to his apartment the other one. Or if you want to spend your iddah time .you just stay at the house of the Sultan's mother, maybe it's better" replied Maymunah.
Sumayya nodded
"Alright, I will go to the house of Amma Fathmah only, now I'll excuse me first" Sumayya said as she got up and walked towards the door.
But he had not yet come out, suddenly he dropped himself.
Brugg..
" Innalallahi.. Sumayya!"
