WHEN I MISS PRAYER

Episode 7 - Ramadan Activities: Ifthor Jama'i

The next day, Asham met Ihsan at the mosque of Ar Rahman. After the dhuha, Asham and Ihsan stepped towards the terrace of the mosque to sit while enjoying the morning air. At once there is something Asyam wants to ask Ihsan, as the person he knows is someone close to the girl of his heart.

“you don't work , sham ?” Ask Ihsan.

“comfort. I want to actively participate in our preparations for breaking the fast together later in the afternoon.” Obviously Asyam.

“subhanallah.your spirit makes me envious.” Said Ihsan while patting Asham's shoulder.

“it is precisely me who envies you, san who has a lot of time to worship in the mosque, active in many activities.”

“ah you are, like you do not have much activity. And for worship can be anywhere, sham. It doesn't always have to be in the mosque. Most importantly you can still perform prayer berjama’ah masjid.” Ihsan.

“insya Allah. Oh yes, may I ask a little ?” Her speech.

“please. What is it about?” Ihsan asked who saw the seriousness on Asham's face.

“a girl.” The answer.

“I see , you are one of the closest brothers to him. Although I do not know what bond there is between you.“ continued Asyam.

“girl ? near ? what is possible, asthma the girl you mean ?” Tanya Ihsan who only answered a nod of the head by Asyam.

“astaghfirullah. There is absolutely no bond between me and him. It's just that he has me consider like my sister. Our parents are friends, my sister is also friends with him. Since childhood we have always played together. I always play together with my sister and she comes to play together also because there is my sister.” Ihsan.

“nothing more than that?” Ask Asyam.

“wallahi, nothing at all. “ Answer reassures.

“what do you know about him , his good and bad ?” Ask Asyam.

“for what did you ask that ?” Ihsan asked back.

“I want to know him more than a friend.” Answer Asham.

“do you intend to make her your wife?’ Ask Ihsan.

“if God allows. Therefore I want to know more than what I know from my vision.” Obviously Asyam.

“promise once you know, whatever your decision is , you will not tell this to anyone. After all this is the disgrace of your own brother that you must take care of.” Ihsan.

“I promise I will keep it a secret , whatever my decision will be.” Say Asyam out loud.

Not only did Ihsan explain, a girl stepped her foot through the open gate of the mosque and entered his courtyard. With a smile, the beginning of a greeting. Asma approached Ihsan and Asyam.

“assalamu’alaikum ..” says Asma.

“wa’alaikumussalam ..” reply Ihsan and Asyam.

“ada what , asthma early in the morning already masjid ?” Ask Ihsan.

“asma records left in secretariat room. All the needs and arrangements of the iftar event will be in the book. Coincidentally met the same bang Ihsan and bang fun. Asthma would like to ask for help to buy plastic cups and fruits to make ice later in the afternoon.” Clear Asthma.

“what should we do to ?” Ask Ihsan.

“ya .. Let asthma shop but you guys keep coming to bring the booze. Asthma cannot do it if you have to

working on your own.” Asthma Vocabulary.

“when can we buy the booty ?” Ask Asyam.

“after asthma takes note.” Answer with a smile.

“asma excuse us first to go up.” He said and went straight up the stairs next to the mosque.

“later we discuss again in spare time.” Ihsan whispered to Asham after Asma left.

      Asyam, Ihsan and Asma also walk to the market which is only 5-10 minutes of time needed to get to the market. Arriving at the market, Asthma intelligently spends - the need to break the fast later. Starting from the small - small Asma collect, 3 packs of medium-sized plastic cups, 3 packs of tissue, 5 cans of white milk, sugar sand ½ kg. And back around the market to look for fruits to make fruit ice. Ihsan and Asyam were carrying large fruits.3 pumpkins, 5 melons.

“bang assyam and bang ihsan to the mosque first. Later he put it in the kitchen of the mosque. All of you bring these groceries as well yes.asma want to buy the same dates for jelly first. Asthma forgot.” Clear Asthma.

“sini let me take it.” Asyam.

“listened bang assyam.” Asthma Vocabulary.

“then asthma further shopping yes, you guys be careful. Assalamu’alaikum.” Pamit Asthma.

“wa’alaikumussalam.”

“why so we're being noticed, san. We both while he walks alone.” Asyam.

“maybe he's worried about his booze.” Sahut Ihsan who immediately walked and followed by Asyam.

 Ahead of the Ashar Adhan, Masjid Teens gather for prayer berjama’ah masjid. As well as to prepare for the event which will start at 16:00 later. Asham and Zidan clawed at the melons and gourds gathered in the basin. Silvi and Salwa produce fruit ice. While Syahrul and Ihsan were taking orders for rice boxes in the opposite alley.

“where's syrup?” Ask Salwa.

“try asking the same asthma, he was shopping.” Sahut Asham's.

“id , nad. Thanks for reminding.” Reply to Asthma with a smile and go straight out the kitchen to buy syrup.

An hour after helping prepare the food, Asthma and Asham prepare in the secretariat room.

“you're ready to tell me later ?” ask Asyam while wearing a peci in front of the mirror.

“insya god ready.” The answer.

“ini arrangement paper show brother.” Say it while giving a piece of paper

“iya , just put it on spelled.” Asyam.

“how are the downs here bang.” Syahrul.

“let us both open our event in the afternoon today with lafadz basmalah.” Asyam.

“bismilbornrahmanirrohim.” Say together.

“all praise be to Allah for whom we can gather this afternoon in this glorious place, God willing. In order to break the fast together held by kaka-kaka teenagers, hopefully provide something memorable and further tighten the strings of brotherhood for younger brothers, teenagers and the surrounding community. Who God willing will be more familiar with the useful activities carried out by the kaka-kaka teenagers here for the youth who will continue our da'wah struggle.” Asyam.

...SENTENCE EXPULSION...

...A prominent cleric, Imam Sahl bin Abdullah Al-Tastari told me about himself : “when I was three years old , I went with my uncle to perform qiyamullail prayers. I saw the way my uncle prayed and I imitated his movements. One day uncle said to me : “do you remember God who created you ?”...

...Imam Sahl bin Abdullah Al-Tastari asked : “how do I remember him ?”...

...Uncle also replied: “my child , if you change clothes and when you want to sleep, say three times in your heart, without moving your mouth (your tongue), ‘Allahu ma’I .. Allahu naadhiri .. Allahu shahidi’ (meaning, Allah is with me ,God sees me, Allah watches me.)...

...Imam Sahl bin Abdullah Al-Tastari memorized the sentence, then said it overnight. Then he told his uncle. Then his uncle said : “from now on say that remembrance ten times every night.” Imam Sahl bin Abdullah Al-Tastari also did, He fulfilled the meaning and He felt pleasure in his heart, his mind was calm and He felt always with Allah SWT. One yr...

...After that his uncle said : “guard what I teach you and continue until you go to the grave. Think it will be useful to you in the world and in the end.”...

...Then my uncle said : “hai Sahl, the one who feels always accompanied by God, seen by God and witnessed by God will he do the work ?”...

...In the end, this feeling will cause a high fear to God. If so, will the person who feels always accompanied, seen and witnessed by God do the work ???...

“subhanallah ..” says his best friends.

“hopefully what you have said in this story, is beneficial to all and can further strengthen our faith. So from kaka, wassalamu’alaikum warohmatullahi wabarokatuh.”

“wa’alaikumsalam warohmatullahi wabarokatuh.”

Asthma also disappears from the presence of younger siblings and teenagers. And Asham came back to tell him that in 10 minutes the Adhan would reverberate. The jama’ah was asked to occupy a row of boxes that have been neatly arranged. “Alhamdulillah” adzan has reverberated. All breaking the fast and after doing maghrib prayer berjama’ah imami by Muhammad Ihsan Safaraz.

The closing time arrived, after the Adzan isya reverberated. With a few words delivered and the distribution of compensation to some orphans around the mosque. Asyam and Asma as the person in charge of breaking the fast together also ended the event with thanks and greetings.
