The Ustadzah

Santriwati Admission

After entering the mosque, Ustazah Shinta who had been waiting for Miya's arrival immediately offered a set of white houses. Trembling, Miya took the face, once again her eyes twinkled. He was so moved, seeing the atmosphere of the mosque that was so beautiful, with the sounds of Shalawat echoing throughout the room.

Then, Miya put on the face. Mukenah Putih is so clean and fragrant, many times Miya smelled its fragrant aroma. Ustazah Shinta was so happy to look at Miya who was wearing Mukenah, the two of them then entered the line of Shaf Salat Subuh and began to Shalawat. A few minutes later, Iqomah reverberated, again by the male voice of the radio recording. After Iqomah is completed, Ustazah Shinta then leads the Jama'ah Shahalat Subuh, while Ustazah Imah takes Shaf right next to Miya.

The prayer felt so solemn to Miya. The congregational prayer is 27x more reward than the prayer alone, it really feels. Though only 2 Rakaat only, but it feels like it has paid off all the struggles of Miya. Yes, it is not the most burdensome parents' debt, but all the sins that Miya has endured so far. Miya really thought about the sin she committed, but how else, all has already been done.

After the Fajr prayer was completed, Ustazah Shinta then gave an announcement. In front of all the santriwati and Ustazah Imah, he introduced Miya. Miya was so embarrassed when all the sisters smiled to greet her, she felt different caste with those who were so holy. But when some santriwati approached Miya and invited her to meet, then she felt the warmth given by her new friends. The morning prayer congregation eventually dispersed and came out of the mosque.

In the courtyard of the Mosque, Mirna waited in the car directly out as soon as she saw a crowd of people coming out of the Mosque. He then took Miya's suitcase in the back seat. Seeing that his best friend had prepared his suitcase, Miya immediately went to Mirna.

"Where? A year?" ask Mirna.

"So far at home .. the person is well Na"

"Thankful ... Well, Cave come home first, this is your suitcase!"

"Live now? Don't you want to go first?"

"No ah, males! Entar Cave so alim dong ..." Mirna Laughter

"Mak Mirna, aren't you staying over?" Suddenly Ustazah Shinta came from behind Miya and joined in the conversation.

"Eh! No Ma'am ... Uh Ustazah! No Ustazah, thanks ... Hehe .." replied Mirna Kikuk.

"Oh, yes, that's ..."

Mirna opened the car door. But not until his feet stepped into the car, Miya immediately embraced him.

"Thanks yes Na .. Thank you very much .. Thanks for everything!" miya said while crying. "If there were no Mirna, maybe I wouldn't be able to do this ... Thanks Na, make all the help, support, and everything ..."

Mirna with teary eyes immediately returned the embrace of her best friend.

"Lebay lo Yak! The bay! Gamau nangis cave so cry because of you!" His face while sobbing.

The two friends then hugged so tightly, witnessed by Ustazah Shinta and several students.

"Ehm ... Ustazahs! Please let Miya in!" Shouted Ustazah Imah from a distance.

It seems that this fat Ustazah had left the mosque first and then turned around because Miya did not go into the boarding school. Hearing the call of Ustazah Imah, Miya then released her embrace. Mirna smiled wryly and glared cynically at Ustazah Imah, because it was as if she was being expelled. Ustazah Shinta then smiled and greeted Mirna, as if she understood how upset Mirna was.

Then Mirna got into the car. But before he left, Mirna reopened her car window and turned to look at Miya and Ustazah Shinta

"Later the Cave is messing around if it's a holiday! Take Mr Hendra too! Can I have Ustazah?"

"Husse!!" Fizz Miya.

"Ah, no fun ... Ustazahs"

"Myrna! Uhh!" Snapped up Miya so embarrassed.

But Ustazah Shinta was so good, he laughed at hearing the insinuation of Mirna. Mirna drove up her car and left. After Mirna's car was no longer visible, Ustazah Shinta then took Miya into the cottage. While groping her suitcase bag, Miya follows Ustazah Shinta into the field of boarding school. It looks like Ustazah Imah was not in his place standing earlier, maybe he had entered first.

As soon as he set foot on the ground field in the middle of the Tree. Miya was immediately presented with a view of the three-story building on her right and left. The building is painted green, the effect is like an elementary school building. Visible lighting lights that light up in the rooms on each floor, making the atmosphere at that time quite bright even though it was still dawn. Unlike the vast field earlier, here is much brighter. In front of Miya stood a large towering tree. The leaves are so dense, as if providing shade on the long benches below. Large trees located right in the middle of the field, complement the beauty and splendor of this boarding school.

Due to the constant daydreaming of the view of the cottage, Miya to the point of being held captive by Ustazah Shinta headed to the building behind the big tree. The third cottage building was wider in size than the others, and also had three floors. But the lights on the second and third floors were not turned on, so the atmosphere felt a little dark. Light from other buildings was blocked by a large tree in the middle of the field. But on the first floor, the light emanated so brightly from two large wooden doors that were wide open. The wooden door led to a large room.

The first floor of the hut building in the middle of it, was entirely a hall. After helping Miya put the suitcase next to the large wooden door, Ustazdah Shinta took her inside the hall. There, there were three Ustazah people who had been waiting for Miya. The three people were wearing full-black veils and clothes, just like the strange Ustazah who smiled at Miya before the Fajr prayer. Miya's heart was pounding, her calmness now turned back into fear of seeing the three Ustazahs. One of the three Ustazahs was Ustazah Imah, he seemed to have changed his veil and black clothes. The other two ... Miya did not recognize him, it seemed like the strange Ustazah was not one of them.

Still wearing the Mukenah mosque, Miya was in a stand in the middle of the three Ustazah people. Ustazah Imah sat in front of Miya, while the other two Ustazahs were on his right and left. Ustazah Shinta then takes the position just behind Miya. Now, Miya was like being surrounded from all directions, despite the distance they were all sitting far apart. Although only five people were in the hall that big, it felt like Miya was stared at by thousands of pairs of eyes, she was nervous as ever.

The three Ustazahs who were looking at Miya looked calm and relaxed. In fact, Ustazah Imah was seen conversing lightly with Ustazah who was on Miya's left. But when Ustazah Shinta gave them a cue, Ustazah Imah's face turned a little serious.

"All right let's start, son Shinta .." said Ustazah Imah.

Miya swallowed her saliva a sign that she was currently so nervous. Want to flap me .. gumamya in the heart.

"Bismilbornrahmanirahim .. assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh ..." Greetings Ustazah Shinta.

"Waalaikumsalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh" the three Ustazah answered the greetings from Ustazah Shinta. So did Miya, though she answered him a little stiffly.

"Let's start a new santriwati reception today .." continued Ustazah Shinta.

"Sir Miya, introduce .. This is Ustazah Ulun (appoints Ustazah at right of Miya) and Ustazah Romah (appoints Ustazah at left of Miya). The three of us are Ustazah managers from Pondok Pesantren's. By the grace of Allah SWT and by the prayer of Nyi Wati, we accept Nak Miya to pursue religious education here"

Miya stared one by one at the Ustazah. Ustazah Ulun was the thinnest of the three, his body was also small. Ustazah Ulun seemed to be smiling kindly at Miya. In contrast to Ustazah Romah whose sharp gaze glared. His face was judes with many wrinkles, it seemed like he was the oldest.

"Alhamdulillah o Allah .." said thanks from Ustazah Shinta.

"Alhamdulillah O Allah ... Thank you Nyi Wati" said Ustazah Imah and Ustazah Romah.

Miya was a little binging, but then she said Hamdallah along with Ustazah Imah.

From the beginning actually Miya was surprised, actually who is 'Nyi Wati' why Ustazah-Ustazah here always mention his name. Miya understood a little that Nyi Wati seemed to be the owner of this boarding school, but her name should not always be mentioned as if she was a worshiped person.

Ustazah Shinta then began praying, followed by the three black-clothed Ustazahs. The prayers offered are the recitations of the Qur'an that are often used in Mosques, the prayer for forgiveness, the prayer of the universe, and closed with the reading of Al-Fatihah. Miya followed solemnly the prayers uttered by Ustazah Shinta, though in her heart there was still fear.

In the corner of the spacious hall room, there was a wooden staircase leading to the second floor. Naturally, the stairs led to a dark room, as the second floor lamp was not lit. Ustazah Imah then pointed towards the stairs.

"Well last, Nak Miya goes up ... Meet Ustazah Nyi Wati, to ask for his blessing ..."
