The Chastity of Alesha

Surgical procedure

And whatever misfortune befalls you is caused by the deeds of your own hands, and Allah forgives most of your iniquities. And you cannot escape (from the torment of Allah) on earth, and you have no protector nor helper but Allah.

QS: As-Shuura 42:30-31

---------------------------------

"Mom, is it true that you have a brain tumor and you need to have surgery right away?" raffi asked as soon as they all sat in the living room.

"Yes Raffi. Maybe this is a punishment for Mama because all this time Mama has hurt you a lot... Mama regrets Raffi. If Mama had blessed you a long time ago maybe Mama would not have experienced all this. God has already punished Mama, Raffi..."

"Istighfar Ma, ask Allah for forgiveness. Raffi is sure God will heal Mama"

"Son Raffi is right Ma. Multiply the istighfar, for all sicknesses come from Allah. God sent down a disaster or disease solely as a warning that we are indeed many wrong and sinful so that we immediately want to return to the path of God" added Esha.

Ms. Debby was silent for a moment to digest Esha's words. Bu Debby's heart was touched by Esha's words. The daughter-in-law that she had hated all this time turned out to be so kind and sholehah. He was ashamed of himself because all this time he only obeyed worldly lust and never remembered God.

"Astaghfirullah." said Mrs Debby as she shed her tears.

"Esha. thank you. You've awakened Mama. Raffi is lucky to have a wife like you. You are a good woman. Forgive Mama for not seeing your kindness"

"Mama's right, Raffi is indeed lucky to get a wife like Esha. He's the one who turned Raffi into a better person Ma"

"Raffi, Papa also apologizes to you. Forgive Papa for being too busy with Papa's work and never paying attention to your happiness. Papa feels like he failed to be a good husband and father because all this time Papa can not guide you to be in the way of God. Papa promises from now on Papa will change. Papa will try to be a good priest for our family"

"Alhamdulillah O Allah.. Raffi was so happy to hear it. That means God has sent down His direction for our family"

"Before surgery Mama wants to pray first Pa. I want to repent and ask God for forgiveness for all my sins. Mama also wants to ask for healing with God Pa"

"All right, we pray together. We and our family will fight together to fight Mama's disease"

Raffi, Esha, Mr. Salman and Ms. Debby also perform congregational prayers. And Mr. Salman became his imam.

*****

In the hospital...

It had been almost 5 hours Raffi and Mr Salman were sitting, standing, and pacing in front of the operating room anxiously.

"Oh my God, may the operation run smoothly and Mama be cured as soon as possible... Aamiin" said Mr. Salman in his heart.

"O Allah, You are the Healer. Heal Mama, God... Lift up his sickness, so that he may, and prolong his age... Aamiin" Raffi's prayer in the heart.

Shortly thereafter the operating room door opened. The nurse immediately took Miss Debby to the ICU. The doctor came out of the operating room. Raffi and Salman immediately approached him.

"Doctor how's the operation??" raffi and Mr. Salman asked curiously.

"Alhamdulillah the operation went smoothly" said the doctor, brushing off his smile.

"Alhamdulillah o Allah." said Raffi and Mr. Salman.

"When can we see him Doc?"

"Patients are still affected by drugs. We'll move him to the ICU. Later you can meet him after the patient is aware"

"All right Doctor"

Raffi immediately contacted Esha to preach it.

Tut's... Tut's... Tut. (connecting).

Esha: "Assalamu'alaikum dear. How's operations?"

Raffi : "Wa'alaikumsalam. Thank God, the operation went well"

Esha : "Alhamdulillah... God has given us our prayers"

Raffi: "Yes dear. But Mama just got transferred to the ICU. We can't see him now. Tonight I will stay at the hospital. Are you okay with me staying?"

Esha: "Nothing dear. You accompany Mama, pity her. If there's anything, tell Esha!"

Raffi: "Yes dear. Assalamu'alaikum"

Esha: "Wa'alaikumsalam"

An hour and a half later, Raffi and Mr. Salman were only allowed to meet Ms. Debby in the ICU room.

When I first saw that Mrs Debby had many wires and breathing apparatus installed, with her mouth open and her tongue out partially, Mr. Salman and Raffi's heart was completely broken. They can't bear to see Miss Debby like that. Raffi wanted to cry. But I can't! He must be strong. He saw Miss Debby trying to wake up. Miss Debby opened her eyes a little. Raffi started talking to him.

"Mama, thank God the operation went smoothly Ma. It's all over. Mama will definitely recover soon" said Raffi to strengthen his mother. Debby could only answer with a blink of her eye.

*****

"How's Mama's condition?" ask Esha.

"Alhamdulillah, Mama's been better, baby. Mama misses Mama's granddaughter. I can't wait to get home quickly"

"Esha pray that Mama will recover soon and Mama can go home soon and play again with Zayn"

"Aamiinu. Thanks dear"

"Oh yes Ma, meet this Miss Dahlia, Esha's real mother"

"It's nice to meet you. I'm sorry, if all this time I've hurt my son a lot" said Ms Debby in a soft voice.

"It's okay, ma'am. It's all over. I also forgive my mother. I wish you a speedy recovery"

"Thank you"

Aulia and Amar take the time to visit Debby. Also Mr. Mirza and Mr. Kania. They flew to Jakarta as soon as they heard from Aulia that Ms Debby had a brain tumor and would be operated on.

"Debby how are you doing?" ask Ms. Kania.

"Thank God I'm better. Kania, Mirza, thank you for coming to see me. You are my best friends. I'm sorry that I haven't listened to your advice. All this time I've been blinded by treasure. After my illness, I realized that family is more important than anything else in the world"

"It's okay Debby. The important thing is that you are aware of all your mistakes" said Mr. Mirza.

"Yes Debby. Now you must focus on your recovery so that you can go home as soon as possible and gather again with your children and grandchildren" said Bu Kania.

"Yes Kania, I'm not at home in the hospital. I want to get home quickly"

After several days of recovery, Ms Debby's condition gradually improved. Slowly all the equipment in his head was thrown away one by one. And today the infusion tube that stuck in his head for about a week has also been removed.

Before going home, Ms. Debby had an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and thank God the results were good. After that, Debby was allowed to go home. But he still had to go to the hospital three months a year to make sure he was fully healed.

Raffi and Mr. Salman also brought Mrs Debby home. Ms. Debby was very grateful to God because she finally managed to fight her illness and was able to reunite with her family.
