234. Aqiqah for princess Rosyidah

In the boarding school owned by Haji Dahlan also looks busy since yesterday morning, because it will hold an aqiqah event for the daughter of Rosyidah, which will be held on the same day as the aqiqah of her friends.

The male santri work hand in hand to set up a tent, then set up a mini stage and arrange chairs for invited guests.

And, in the morning, after the Hajj Dahlan slaughtered a goat, the santriwati began to shoulder to shoulder in the kitchen. Some began to cut meat into smaller sizes to make it easy to cook, and others prepared spices.

For a few hours, the santriwati processed the goat meat into some processed food, which now began to smell the sense of smell. Makes the stomach grow.

After all was done in the cook, they began to share the food, to be distributed to the surrounding residents and for the event later tonight.

While everyone was busy with aqiqah preparation activities, Andre seemed busy looking for the right name for his daughter.

Even it was done since he knew Rosyidah's pregnancy. He did not want to give his son a name. He hopes, by giving a good name, can bring blessing to his son.

And as he was busy holding his baby while busy scrolling through his phone screen looking for a suitable name for his daughter, Rosyidah suddenly surprised him, by wrapping her hand around Andre's shoulder.

"Astaghfirullah, you surprised me dear."

"Why? Haven't found a proper name for our daughter?" rosyidah asked as she looked at the screen of Andre's phone. Andre nodded his head.

"Actually, there are many good names for baby girls. At all you have not found the right time for our child? The names of the prophet's friends are also many good ones." said Rosyidah while sitting on the bedside. Andre stood up and sat down beside his wife.

Now the two began to discuss the name of their child, because later tonight during the event aqiqah, of course the name of the baby will be called.

Rosyidah began asking about the names of the women who were around the Prophet to Andre. Andre answered as much as he could.

Then Rosyidah went back to fishing her husband, asking him to explain one by one the stories of the women.

Fortunately Andre memorized it out of his head with one of the Prophet's wives who was still small. Even Andre when he was in High School, dreamed of being able to marry a girl who was not only beautiful, smart but also young like him Aisyah.

And, Andre began to explain about Aisha to Rosyidah.

"Aisha was the son of Muhammad's friend, Abu Bakr as-Sidiq. The Messenger of Allah is not a connoisseur of children as the word of the bird blows.

His love story with Aisha began from a dream. 2 times the Prophet dreamed, the angel brought Aisha to be his match.

The apostle followed up the dream by going to Aisha's father, with the intention of marrying the princess.

Abu Bakr did not think that his son would be edited by the lover of God. He immediately told Aisha about the Prophet's proposal.

And not unexpectedly, if Aisyah would accept the proposal. At that time, Aisha was a child. She became the wife of Prophet Muhammad when she was 6-7 years old.

Being a wife from a young age, Aisha grew up in love, affection, tenderness, and upbringing of Prophet Muhammad. He was treated according to his age, without any coercion.

Abud Dhuha narrated from Masruq who said, "I saw old people among friends asking many things to Sayyidah Aisyah RA."

Recognition of Aisha was given by Urwah bin Zubair. "I have never seen a woman more intelligent in medicine, fiction, and poetry than Sayyidah Aisyah RA."

The name Aisha was included in a handful of companions of the Prophet who were named as the most hadith narratives. Aisha came fourth after Abu Hurairah, Abdullah bin Umar bin al-Khattab, and Anas bin Malik.

There are as many as 2,210 hadith narrated by Aisha. Hadith tells about the life of Prophet Muhammad SAW, household, and the role of the Apostle as husband or head of the family.

Each time, the Prophet called Aisha, always tucking in the word Humaira, which means reddish. Because his face is always reddish when his name is called. Muhammad made him look at it.

The togetherness of Aisyah and Prophet Muhammad SAW can not be separated from romantic stories. Because the Apostle knew the character of Aisha.

Without needing to ask and say, the Apostle knew when Aisyah was angry or happy even though the wife often hid her feelings neatly.

So special was Aisha that in her last days, the Apostle requested that she be cared for in Aisha's house.

When the Angel of Death took the life of Prophet Muhammad SAW, he was in the lap of Aisha. The Prophet prayed: "O Allah, forgive me and have mercy on me. Find me with high friends (his position). Yes, Allah meet me with friends (who are high)."

The words were uttered by Prophet Muhammad three times. Then, leaning between Aisha's chest and neck, the Prophet died at the age of 63.

Unknowingly, Andre actually shed tears when telling the story of Aisha's life with the Prophet who was extraordinary. A love story that is not only based on lust alone, but based on love for his Lord. Rosyidah wiped away the tears on her husband's face.

"Are you crying?"

"Women are indeed the most special creatures on earth. Not only is he strong, but he is also loyal to his partner. I was amazed by Aisha's intelligence, strength, and loyalty shown to the Prophet.

But unfortunately, most men now, given a little excess of property, or not satisfied with the services provided, instead play eggplant behind his wife.

And, recalling Aisha's story and accompanying you in giving birth to our baby, made me realize how important it is to take care of my wife's heart. Whatever happens, we must always be together, in joy and sorrow. I'll never leave you, baby."

"Then, we give our baby name Aisyah Humaira just how dear? That I may always remember your struggle to bear a baby and also remember the story of a noble woman, such as the Prophet's wife."

Rosyidah smilingly nodded her head, responding to her husband's remarks.

"I agree very much. That's a good name."

"Why didn't I mention that name?" grouse Andre.

"It's okay mas, all will need a process, not instant. Thinking about our baby's name also makes you more serious about learning to understand the teachings that we profess, right?"

Andre grinned the horse in response to his wife's right speech.
