The Light in My Darkness

Brian was told to wait outside by Azzam.

" God was suspicious that night!" said Daffa while clenching his hands.

" What do you mean?" ask Arkan to look at his youngest brother.

" Grandpa met him in the apartment of a good friend, Bang! Ask him why is he there? He said he was told to guard his friend's apartment!" said Daffa again.

" then?" ask Arkan.

" But Adek had seen on his neck a red mark like a scar..." Daffa did not continue his words.

" Why didn't you tell us?" ask Arkan in a slightly disappointed tone.

" Geek thought it was bitten by an insect, bang! ...Forgive Adek, Bi!" daffa said regretfully.

" That's it! It's all happening!" Azzam.

" When did Abi talk to Nabil's parents?" ask Arkan.

Abi breathed a long breath, he nodded his head with a heavy heart, because he felt bad about the friendship between himself and Farzan that had been established for many years had to be tarnished by Nabil's past behavior. But she also did not want Fatma to marry a man like Nabil.

" Ors!" call Ibram who approaches Farzan who is sitting with his wife.

" Yes, Bram?" sahut Farzan's.

" Om Azzam asked Om Farzan in for a moment!" Ibram.

" What's up?" asked Farzan while frowning his forehead.

" I don't know, Om!" answer Ibram.

" Ummi! Abi go in first!" farzan.

" What's up, Bi!" answer Sidni.

" I don't know!" answer Farzan.

Then Farzan stood up and walked into the living room.

" What's up, anyway, mi?" ask Nabil who looks upset.

" Ummi doesn't know! Om Azzam calling your ashes!" sidni stroked the back of her son sitting next to her.

" It's a really tough wedding, like the president's son!" fr Nabil.

" Athaghfirullah, Nabil! What are you, anyway? Lately ummi like not know you!" sidni was shocked and angry.

" Once, there's a problem! This feeling is just a betel's wedding, not an official wedding! But what a storm!" nabil sebel.

" Athaghfirullah! Enough, Bil! Keep talking to you!" said Sidni who was disappointed by his son's attitude.

Nabil was once because umminya even angry at him, not even defending him. After a few minutes, Farzan came out with a tense face.

" Ummi! We're home!" said Farzan looking at his wife.

" Yes, Bi! But..."

" Later explain at home! Go, Zidan! Nabil!" farzan said firmly.

" Yes, Bi! What'an, anyway? Nabil has been waiting for a long time, but he wants to go home!" nabil was angry.

" enough! Don't challenge Abi's patience!" farzan answered angrily, Ummi, Zidan and Nabil were surprised to hear Farzan's words. Farzan realized his slightly exaggerated attitude, he closed his eyes and took a breath.

" We're going home now!" abinya said slowly.

Then they stood up and followed Farzan. Damnit damnit! I failed Fatma tonight! inner Nabil was disappointed.

" Deck! Why did you decide so soon, son?" ask Azzam.

" Adek does not want the honor of our family to be trampled because of adek, Bi!" fatma answered while shedding tears.

Azzam sighed and looked at the princess. He knew that his daughter respected and loved her parents above all else.

"But why is he? Are you sure?!" azzam asked gently patting his daughter on the shoulder.

" Fatma doesn't know him, Bi! But right now Adek's little heart is talking to accept him, because only he who according to Fatma can save our family's honor at this time, Bi!" answer Fatma.

" That's not the answer, son! Abi doesn't want to just because of the family's honor you will finally regret your decision later!" azzam said firmly.

" But, Bi..."

" Grandpa! Abi does not want to see Abi's children suffer while with his partner! Marriage is a worship, not a game or a thing to try!" Azzam.

" Abi's right, Dek! Your decision today will change your life in the future!" said Arkan looking at his sister.

" She only asked him to preach, Bi! And he had a month to meet those requirements!" fatma.

Then Abi with tenderness and slowly explained everything to his wife. Ummi was so devastated to hear all about Nabil, he could not believe that his future son-in-law was like that. Because Azzam knew that Salma loved Nabil very much because of his abilities and manners.

" Then you'll marry a man who doesn't even know our teachings, son?" salma asked not to believe what her daughter wanted.

" Yes, Ummi!" answer Fatma.

" Athaghfirullah! Is there no other man who wants to marry you, son? Until you accept him?" salma asked with tears.

" Since he's the only one who exists right now, Ummi! Only he surpasses Nabil! And only he's ready to get married right now!" fatma.

" Of course, he can't be your Imam!" Salma.

" He promised to learn, Ummi! And Adek give him a month, if he fails then he must retreat sincerely!" fatma.

" Already, Mi! If this is a bad decision, we have to support it! But adek jarus still married, but betel!" Azzam.

" Bi!"

" Abi?"

" No, Bi!"

All at the same time.

" If she asks Abi to marry you, Abi will agree to it but on the terms you apply. Abi can't possibly plunge Abi's daughter!" azzam sage said.

" Adek it's up to Abi just how good it is!" fatma replied.

" Sincere grandfather?" ask Azzam.

" Deck!"

" In God, be sincere!" fatma's reply left Arkan and Salma disappointed.

" Abi will talk to the village mudin!" abi said and went out of Fatma's room.

Azzam talked to his family and then with Mudin village. Azzam told Ibra to call Brian to meet him at the mushalla.

" sir! Called Om Azzam in Mushalla!" ibra.

Brian immediately stood up and walked to the mushalla. Azzam looked at Brian, he was a handsome man, dashing and full of authority.

" Asalamu'alaikum!" greet Brian.

" Wa'alaikumsalam! Please sit here!" azzam said as he patted the carpet in front of him. Brian approached Azzam and sat down in front of him.

" Are you sure of your heart?" azzam asked, staring intently at Brian.

" Yes! I love the kid, Om!" answer Brian seriously.

" Are you sure you can make her happy?" ask Azzam.

" Of course! I have everything!" replied Brian arrogantly.

Azzam sighed, an overconfident and arrogant man! Hope you can change him, son! inner Azzam.

" Marriage is not only about possessions, but the main thing is religion!" azzam emphasized his words a little.

" I have money and love, it's enough for me to make Zahirah happy!" said Brian kagi.

Azzam sighed again, trying to convince his heart to accept Fatma's decision..

" Are you sure of the terms?" ask Azzam who no longer forced his mind, he will learn a lot about how marriage in Islam! inner Azzam.

" Yes! I'm sure! But I want to change something!" said Brian.

Azzam scrunched his forehead, Fatma did not speak anything about any changes.

" What do you mean?" ask Azzam.

" I want to marry princess Om! Not beating!" said Brian.

" No! I don't want a divorce in my family!" azzam was angry.

" Why should you get divorced? I will not release Zahirah until anytime. And I have said, if I am able to meet his requirements! I'm not a man with a low IQ, if that's what Om is afraid of! I will learn quickly!" said Brian.

" I don't mean to underestimate you!" Azzam. Athaghfirullah! inner Azzam.

" But from what Om said, I am a weak man!" said Brian.

" Islam needs to be studied not only through theory, but also through practice! And it takes a long time!" azzam said again.

" I asked Princess Om to marry me! I promise I won't touch him until he lets it! If that's what you're worried about!" brian seemed to know Azzam's worries.

" If you can't keep your promise?" ask Azzam.
