The sound of a simple adhan shubuh woke me up from my deep sleep.
I immediately got off the bed walking towards the bathroom and immediately ablaze.
After that I walked to the front room, where my husband slept.
I see he's still so slumbering. I remember, yesterday he came home before Maghrib, and after that he focused on the laptop. His phone was often heard ringing.
And I also heard that my husband spoke politely and hesitantly. I don't know who called him, but all I know is that every call rings and my husband's face is tense.
"Well, shabuh" I said
There is no lawfulness. I breathed a heavy breath. Either this is the shubuh whose virtue my husband has always ignored.
Even if he knew how important the prayer shajuh was, surely he would wake up soon.
Regardless of being a sinner, facing God is an obligation. And as a wife it is my duty to remind my husband to pray.
Five minutes I sat next to my husband, his regular breathing.
"Well, shajuh" I called him back
My husband moved his body, wriggled and changed his back position
Finally I stood up and left the room, then entered the mosque that was at home, praying alone.
It took me ten minutes to finish my shajuh. After folding the prayer mats and my face I returned to my husband's room who was still sleeping soundly
"Well, wakeup. Prayers"
Still no answer
"Well?"
"Hemmm" that was my husband's only answer
"Let's get up, pray first"
"Later"
"It's five o'clock past loh. Almost six and a half hours"
"Yeah"
"Let's get up"
"Later"
With a deep breath I left the room. Go to the kitchen and start the activity.
I took the hp, then I played the mp3 that was inside my phone.
While humming I wash the dishes. I finished it by filling the rice cooker. I'm lyrically a clock hanging on the wall, six o'clock, fifteen minutes. But there was no sign my husband would wake up.
I went back to the front room and woke my husband up. But just like before, there was no reaction. If there's just "Hemm, yes, or later"
But I'm not desperate. This time I woke him up not only with a call but also by shaking his hand.
"If you want to pray, pray alone!" snapped
I'm silent. I stopped shaking his hand. Then I sat next to him
"In the Qur'an surah Al-Isra' verse 78 explains that
أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ لِدُلُوكِ الشَّمْسِ إِلَى غَسَقِ اللَّيْلِ وَقُرْآَنَ الْفَجْرِ إِنَّ قُرْآَنَ الْفَجْرِ كَانَ مَشْهُودًا
“Establish prayer from after the sun slips until dark at night and (either prayer) Shajuh. Verily the prayer of Shahuh was witnessed (by an angel).”
"That means that shubuh is important well" I said again
My husband is not awake yet. This time with determination I shake his body tightly until his body moves to the right so strongly I move his body.
My husband immediately sat down. And with red eyes from just waking up he looked at me furiously.
I smiled at him, I was glad that this time I woke him up
"Please pray, then just go to sleep again" I said as I stood leaving my husband still grumbling
I went back to the kitchen, preparing the fish seasoning I wanted to make pepes. The sound of the hindi song from my phone was still spinning, and I followed the lyrics
"Based on wife there's no adab!"
I was surprised to hear my husband yelling at me.
I immediately turned my head and put down the kitchen knife I was wearing peeling turmeric.
My husband went into the kitchen with an angry face and sat on the dining chair.
"The wife is brash" he continued
"Why the hell is it?" much
"You're a brash wife, no husband" he snapped angrily
"Astaghfirullah, what's my fault?" my question while standing off mp3.
"You didn't wake up my husband, I'm not a child as nice as your stomach, you woke up this way"
"Yes, because of that, I'm sorry" I replied with a smile
"Don't wait for you to pray diligently and you assume that you are pious!"
I kept quiet, not caring about the talk, just kept chopping the seasoning
"Can't you wake me up well?" snapped
This time my emotions started to rise because I kept being yelled at and blamed
"How many times have I woken you up Well, from the end of the Adhan to the end of dawn"
"I woke up from a slow call until I shook my hand, but I still didn't wake up" he said
"Hemmm" grunts
"Then I woke up by shaking my father's body because the shajuh time was running out" he said
"But I don't like the way you woke me up like that. What do you think I am, huh? I am the head of the family, where is your respect? I'm not a kid you can treat like this"
"Astaghfirullah's. I woke up in a good way, but I didn't wake up" I replied in frustration.
"Yes, I'm sorry. Don't yell Well, be ashamed of the neighbors. It's still morning but we're already in a fuss" I continued
Andi's eyes still radiated anger. It was an emotion from his gaze
"Heeemm, don't stop you from wearing a hijab so you assume that you are perfect and pious. You are free to wear hijab, hijab only raised, but morals are not!" said cynical
I immediately stood up, I was really offended by his words this time.
"Please don't carry my hijab, I feel very offended if anyone puts my clothes down. You may curse me at all your heart, even humbling me as low as possible, but please do not insult my clothes. My clothes are right, but my morals still need improvement" I said with a tremble holding back tears.
Andi smiled cynically looking at me who was standing.
I continued to hold a deep concern because of my anger at Andi who had insulted my hijab. My heart is really hurt. I'm very disappointed in him.
"If you don't like me waking up, I promise you I won't wake you up for your prayers again" I replied with tears that escaped
Andi still looked at me cynically
"Have no wife, wake the husband inhumane, hypocritical woman!" he said rude
"Yes, I'm sorry. I'm sorry if I was wrong. I told you earlier, I woke up violently because my father had not yet woke up when the dawn time was running out. That's it" I asked
"You're a brash wife!" snapped
"The wife is the husband's dress, how your wife is depends on how the husband educates her. If your manners are good, Insha Alloh your wife's behavior is also good, but if your wife's behavior is bad, your introsexy can be your behavior is not good" I replied
"I'm sick of the Lovely you always lecture!" snapped
"I promise I won't wake you up for the shajuh prayer again. I once fantasized, if I live with you it is not only in the world, but I also want to live with you in the end" I replied sobbing
"Don't dream you're beautiful!" snapped
I wiped my tears. It hurts so much to hear his words.
"Bismil was bornrahmanirrahiim, I promise I will not wake you up to pray shabuh Andi again" said I lirih
Andi's eyes stared intently at me, her hands clenched in anger.
"And I swear I FORBID MYSELF FROM TOUCHING YOU, EVEN IF IT'S JUST THE TIP OF MY SHIT. FROM TODAY I TALAK A THOUSAND YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!!" he said by pointing at me with teeth
I stared in disbelief at my husband. My tears without being able to bear escaped with a rush flowing down the cheeks.
I sat down softly hearing his talc. I really couldn't believe that my husband would say talaq just because I woke him up to pray.
Seeing me sobbing, Andi immediately got up from the chair and left me alone sitting on the floor crying over my face
We finally got divorced today. Although this is what I want, but once I heard the speech of the talisman earlier, it does not stop me from being destroyed as well. Moreover, earlier Andi uttered a thousand talak, which is the same as three talak.
Oh, my children how? my inner. The tears flowed back when I remembered my three children.
"You're out of this house. Because this is not your home. In this house there is no money. So you leave my house now!" banish
I opened my hands that covered my face. I looked in disbelief at the man currently standing in front of me. I didn't know him, he changed a lot. Not the Andi I knew seven years ago.
"You got ears? so leave my house today. Bring your children, and do not bring any of the things I bought for you. Leave all. All your stuff, you bring it. No one is left in this house!"
I immediately got up and ran into the room hugging my three children who were still asleep
My tears are still flowing. I can't believe it was so painful at talak.
