"As Allah Almighty has ordained, long before the man was born, everything was written in Lauhul mahfudz. Just like my wife and I. Which has to stop here. As He has set.
At first I did not really mean the words that had been intended to go away, and it turns out that now he is really gone. Leaving two of our hearts that are still reddish, for my own care.
After the birth, God loved her more. It turns out that God loved her more and called her back to His side"
After Zahwa was unconscious, the doctor immediately dealt with him. His chest rumbled to see his wife never open her eyes. After everything was cleaned, Zahwa was moved to the nursery room, while their two babies were placed in a special room because they also still needed handling.
The doctor has tried his best but nothing has changed. Akhtar was almost desperate, yet he was strengthened by the clear eyes of his children.
While Zahwa was in charge, Akhtar went to the Mosque which was right next to this hospital. He cleared himself, and calmed himself by prostrating himself before his Lord.
Long Akhtar had just departed from his last bow, he was compelled to complain, to ask for help from the Almighty.
'O Allah, I am powerless, I have no power except You to complain and ask. O Lord, You test me, You rebuke. Please give the opportunity of life once more to the wife of the Servant, Lord. Only you can help and bring this test back. Give your help to the Servant . O Thou God who gave this, Servant Please without you no more can lift this test. Give the servant and the servant's wife the opportunity to take care of our children Rabb'
His heart was slightly relieved after running over the Khaliq's lap. Akhtar got up from his prostration and finished his worship. In his prayerful daydream, someone came and stroked his shoulders. A little surprised Akhtar turned to see who had come to him.
“Pak Bathur” said softly
“God is with us son, God is with us” said Mr. Bathur embraced Akhtar.he positioned himself as a parent and Akhtar understood that very well. Right, right now he needed the support of the people closest to him to help him wake up from his despair, as well as give strength to his being able to get through all this.
Akhtar could not hide his tears that continued to flow just like that. Mr. Bathur accompanied him until he felt calm to return to the hospital.
Moments later, Akhtar was called in by a nurse. He said that this was the time for the twin to receive the first intake from his mother. As Akhtar's heart melted again, their two babies who had just arrived in the world had to feel this sadness.
Akhtar went back to see the doctor to find out the development of Zahwa's condition.
“sorry sir, but the condition remains the same there has been no development, or rather, after we check back your wife fell into a coma after giving birth”
Again bad news always hit him, as if everyone wanted to turn his world upside down.
“why is this so? Astaghfirullah, forgive me servant yes Rabb, I should not complain, I should realize that this is taqdirmu”, he said in his heart.
Akhtar grabbed Zahwa's hand and kissed him for a long time. He looked at the pale face that had given him two children at once. In the end, the cry of grief could no longer be contained. His mind floated when he was in a coma, it turned out that this was what his wife felt and it lasted for three months.
But when he felt something similar, it was only a few hours after he was told by the Doctor. She is like someone who does not know what to do. “I testify you are a good woman, you are a strong woman, you are a pious woman
Day
Akhtar was shocked by the arrival of the whole family to the hospital. He who had just performed Maghrib prayer next to his wife's gurney immediately opened the door when he heard a familiar voice.
“Umi..Abi...” he said softly when he saw his parents were in front of him.
“a-assalamu’alaikum Father.. Mother.” greeting Akhtar saw the two mertunya also leaf there.
“nak..” says umi vibrates
“please enter” Akhtar let everyone inside
Without the babibu all of them immediately approached the patient's bed, where there was their daughter who was betting life and death. Akhtar just looked down behind, he could not see the look of sadness on everyone's faces.
“Son's Dad believes in Allah's Taqdir. I want you to also be able to patiently accept it” Akhtar looked up at Father Ali who spoke expressionlessly in front of him. Afterwards he returned the embrace of his father-in-law.
“InSyaaAllah”
While the women, especially Mother Fatimah was crying while hugging her daughter. Likewise with Umi Alya who was silent while stroking the head of her favorite daughter-in-law. Once everything can control their feelings. They sat on the sofa in the room.
“where the grandson of Bunda” said Mother Fatimah broke the silence
“ada in the baby's special room, turn right from this room Bunda”
“deliver us there” said Umi Alya. Akhtar nodded and moved from his seat. After he asks a nurse to look after Zahwa, everyone walks behind Akhtar towards their grandchildren's room.
After arriving there, everyone was shocked and seemed confused, because there were two baby boxes listed by their names as parents.
“Zi? Which one is Abi's grandson?” Ask Abi Firman to represent the others
“both Bi, Alhamdulillah we are blessed with a pair of twins” said Akhtar managed to make everything again radiant while giving thanks . They embraced Akhtar in turn.
“why never tell us, son?” Ask Umi Alya
“itu.. Umma wishes his children who really want to give a surprise to the whole family. But.” Ali's father patted Akhtar's shoulder hinting that it should not be continued, we all understand.
“MasyaaAllah..” all clucked in amazement staring at the two tiny babies.
While everyone was preoccupied with the two tiny babies, a nurse came there in a hurry. It leaves everyone confused.
“sorry gentlemen, mistress. But the patient suddenly critically” said his caution
Without a second thought, Akhtar immediately ran towards Zahwa's ward.
There was a doctor there who was checking Zahwa's condition. When the Doctor's face suddenly pale, he checked it once again, ranging from heart rate, eye response, to pulse.
The doctor shook his head weakly, his lips moved slowly somehow saying what. Then he looked at Akhtar
“God loves him more. Your wife has passed away honorably Mr”
!!!!!!!!
There was no wind, no rain, but Akhtar felt like he was in the lightning to make it look like a lifeless statue.
“innalillahi wainna ilaihi raji’un”
BRUK! Mother Fatimah collapsed at the door, shortly after the Doctor delivered the news of grief.
Everyone was silent, shocked by the news that had just been heard by their ears
“tuan, we're so sorry. May you and your family be given patience and fortitude in the face of this ordeal” said the Doctor bowed to resuscitate Akhtar
“ti-no impossible. I heard it wrong Doc. Nah! that's not true, Doctor. My wife can still realize that Dok” Tanya Akhtar still can't believe what the Doctor said
Abi Firman came to embrace him and whispered the truth to Akhtar and asked him not to oppose the power of God.
Akhtar let go of his arms and approached Zahwa's body, shaking Zahwa's body and asking him to get up. He called repeatedly, but there was no response at all.
Everything sobbed beside the patient's bed, just as Akhtar, Bunda and Umi Alya were still equally distrustful of the reality that made both of them cry silently.
Ali's father was sitting on the floor hearing that his daughter was no longer with him. Which father's heart is not broken when his daughter leaves him for good. Suddenly Akhtar out of the room went somewhere leaving a question mark on everyone's mind.
Before long some people entered the room in the middle of a mourning blanket. They come with a happy feeling of wanting to meet their loved ones after a long time without meeting, they are none other than Azzam, Helwa and Zahra.
“Daddy, what happened?” azzam asked looking at the unusual situation. Helwa was so, a bad premonition swirled around in her head. Zahra was already feeling stubbornly waiting for what she would hear next.
Father Ali's voice choked in his throat, making it difficult to speak.“Wa-wawa we have been called sa-ma Allah”
The deg! The three stared at Ali's father in disbelief
“what does Father mean?”
“Wawa has left us son, God called her after she gave birth to your two nephews”
“ WAWA!”
“GAK MAY, Sister Wawaa” cried Zahra hysterically ran hugging Zahwa's leg.
Helwa held him from behind while crying. While Azzam approached stroking the face of his dead sister. They were devastated by Zahwa's departure.
All dissolved with sadness with tears they stared even still calling Zahwa, before long they were surprised by the simple footsteps with the sound of baby crying.
Everyone looked at the door, they were surprised it was Akhtar who came to bring his two children into the room. He barged in and got closer to Zahwa's body.
“sayang.this is our children. Can you hear their cries? Baby isn't it? You heard it. Honey, please answer, please help me silence them. Please wake up, for their sake. Don't you see how they still need you in their lives?” akhtar said as if speaking to Zahwa
“nak, what are you doing. They are not good to be here” said Umi Alya who actually does not agree with Akhtar's actions are very determined to bring their children out of the special room without any protection.
“Umi, there is no reason for my wife to leave Zi and our children who still need her affection”
“but, son. This place is very dangerous for them. They are small. And this place is not suitable for your two children”
“ Umi. Understand. My wife should wake up, baby. wake up. baby.. hikss”.
Please, anybody. Everyone will cry to see Akhtar like this, trying to wake his wife who will not be able to open her eyes forever.
He felt that half his life was lost, his defensive fort was completely destroyed with the departure of his soul mate. He cried while doing the same thing over and over again.
“ZI, ENOUGH! YOU MUST REALIZE THAT YOUR WIFE IS GONE. DO NOT BE AN OPPONENT OF ALLAH. DO YOU NOT KNOW THAT SUSTENANCE, SOUL MATE, AND DEATH HAVE BEEN ARRANGED BY GOD AND WE KNOW THAT IT CAN ALL COME SUDDENLY AND IN UNEXPECTED WAYS. OUR TASK IS ONLY TO ACCEPT IT, NOT TO MOURN AND FORGET OUR FAITH IN HIM ” Abi Firman said firmly. He was furious with his son who suddenly turned into this.
Silent!
The words of the Abi managed to get Akhtar slapped, and finally realized that everything was over. Has ended.
Moments later, her children fell silent in her arms. After that he took a beristighfar. Azzam came closer to him “don't like this, ane don't want the most ane dear sister to join in crying because of seeing you like this. And do not be selfish so forget the condition of these two ponakan ane” after speaking like that, Azzam took over the two and then gave it to Helwa and Ali's father.
After that they drove the twin back to where it was.
Now he has widened his heart to accept His decree that has given such a line of direction to his home life. Everyone has tried to make Zahwa's departure even though it still feels heavy and difficult. Until they move to perform their last duty to Zahwa, which is to take care of his kifayah fardu.
***
As the funeral was underway, Akhtar pitted his beloved wife for the last time with tears. Crying accompanied the closing process of their angel's tomb. The funeral process lasts until it is finished, after all the fardu kifayah has been done.
After everything returned, Akhtar still sat faithfully beside the grave of the wife. He rubbed a headstone that read his beautiful name.
“Honey.. Maybe now we are not husband and wife anymore in the world, but rest assured your name will remain in my heart. After our long journey of love, I found loyalty and patience in you. As well as all your behavior that always left an impression on me. You are my holy woman. You are the greatest mother to our children. May our daughter also have the same kind of good manners and loving attitude as you. And also our son who will always be a protector for our little Zahwa. And later brands will continue to send prayers of love to their Umma in each of their last prostrations. ”
“know dear, that you are a lucky person. You are one of those who died honorably. You died in martyrdom. Because of your departure after giving birth to our children. And may you have what God has promised you,”
After he finished revealing his heart, Akhtar got up and walked slowly with a heavy heart leaving the navel of the angel of his heart.
After arriving at the parking lot, Azzam was still there waiting for him. Azzam patted Akhtar's shoulder for a while and then they returned home.
A week later,
Akhtar entered the room after being tired of standing on the balcony. He approached his two children who were sound asleep on his bed with his late beloved wife, slowly he kissed their eyebrows in agony
“may you be the children of ahlul Qur’an, a devoted child and always pray for both parents. Aamiin” Akhatar said as he stroked their heads affectionately.
“bismillaahirrahmaanirraahiim, assalamu’alaikum son of Abba Zavier Malik Alfarezi. May you be a good and loving leader. Take care of your sister, her name is Zahwa Khansa Nadira. Assalamu’alaikum daughter of Abba, may you inherit the nature of Umma as you inherit his name. May you be a righteous and righteous child. Aamiin”
Before long the two babies woke up and wanted to scramble in front of the Abba with their cries that were mutually simple. “ahahahaha. Patience dear, both of them will remain with Abba” before long both seem calm in the lap of the Abba who is still loyal to hold them.
Akhtar walked over and stopped in front of a picture frame containing a picture of himself and his soulmate. Zahwa Mary Equeena's.
This is life, a journey that can be short, can also be long. Depending on who lives it and how taqdir mengirinya.all that we plan everything we want will not always run smoothly as we imagine. Sincerity and patience are the keys to any given ordeal. May we be among those who are always patient and sincere in facing the problems and trials of life from Allah SWT. Amiin AmiinYa Rabb.

A woman would be considered perfect if she had become a mother. Of course for a woman herself being a mother is an extraordinary gift.
The apostle of Allah Shallallahu ‘alaihi wa sallam once visited Abdullah bin Tsabit, when he was fainting due to illness. In the middle of that, there are people who allude to the issue of martyrdom.
Then the Prophet shallallahu ‘alaihi wa sallam asked, “What do you consider martyrdom?”
They replied, ‘People who die in the way of Allah.’ Then the Prophet shallallahu ‘alaihi wa sallam gave a briefing,
الشَّهَادَةُ سَبْعٌ سِوَى الْقَتْلِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ: الْمَطْعُونُ شَهِيدٌ، وَالْغَرِقُ شَهِيدٌ، وَصَاحِبُ ذَاتِ الْجَنْبِ شَهِيدٌ، وَالْمَبْطُونُ شَهِيدٌ، وَصَاحِبُ الْحَرِيقِ شَهِيدٌ، وَالَّذِي يَمُوتُ تَحْتَ الْهَدْمِ شَهِيدٌ، وَالْمَرْأَةُ تَمُوتُ بِجُمْعٍ شَهِيدٌ
“Those martyrs there were 7 besides those who were killed in the way of Allah: The one who died of thaun, was martyred. The one who drowned, martyr. The man who died because of a severe wound in his stomach was martyred. People who die of stomach pain, martyrdom. The one who burned to death, martyred. People who die from hard things are martyred. And the dead woman, while there is a fetus in her womb.” (CHR. Abu Daud 3111 and al-Albani).
Among the martyrdom as Ibnul Ambari said,
لِأَنَّ اللَّه تَعَالَى وَمَلَائِكَته عَلَيْهِمْ السَّلَام يَشْهَدُونَ لَهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ . فَمَعْنَى شَهِيد مَشْهُود لَهُ
“Because Allah Ta’ala and his angel ‘alaihimus greetings witness the person with heaven. The meaning of martyrdom here is witnessed for him.”
(Sharh Shahih Muslim, 2:142, also mentioned in Fath Al-Bari, 6:42).
Ibn Hajar mentions another opinion, which is meant by martyrdom is the angel witnessed that they died in a state of husnul khatimah (the end of a good life). (Fath Al-Bari, 6:43)
The above hadith confirms that a woman who died in childbirth, her death would be considered martyrdom.
For he has struggled with all his might to be able to give birth to his beloved baby into this world.
This is certainly a special privilege for women, especially those who are pregnant. In order not to be afraid and enjoy all the processes of pregnancy and childbirth with pleasure.
For everything that has become a provision only Allah SWT knows.
