Bismillaahi,
"What are you doing here? This is not a good place for people like you. "
"It's okay, as long as the time."
Introduction Our starting small talk it through inbox. At that time, I was sitting in the second semester, first year in university. As a new soul "knows" the hijab after graduating high school, I was someone who was very unstable. Between the desire to be a better person, a negative response from family, loss of friends, and confusion due to lack of role model who could put me in a straight path, he comes. The withdrawal was traveling in the desert alone, a thirst for intense heat-biting, she came with a smile and provide drinking water release thirst and fatigue. As luck for me, she really came on at the right time, when the world is not on my side, like a wooden stick coming my way at the same time supporting the torch as a guide.
I originally created an account on a chat application to hone my English skills with strangers, accidentally saw her profile. Profile so "skyrocketed" and the religious. As a "new" know the Lord, I will question the existence in a place like that. Is not it better he went to the mosque? Wrestle with things smelling religion, rather than spend time talking to and fro with people she did not know physically. So without further thought, I sent you a private mail. And since then, we were more often spoken though not physically. Discussed many things, including curhatku about problems - troubles and how I envy habits - good habits.
Unexpectedly, less than 2 weeks, he expressed to me his favorite. The reason, he sees a strong desire in my heart to return to the right path. According to him, my heart yearned with kindness. And he wanted to be a part of it. Emphatically as he says, does not mean he wants to invite courtship, because he was against it. He just did not want to lie to her feelings. And promised to help me find a path that has faded in front of me, leading me to goodness, because she loves me. As a naive, I was very happy with the offer of help, although it is very difficult for me to say like him. I thought then, I need it and I have to accept a helping hand.
Time rolled on, coupled with the many religious books are sent to me, the more knowledge. I'm a tomboy, gradually began to wear skirts and look more feminine. Hijab became more dangling. Worship also improved. It was all under the "supervision". Accordingly, our conversations became more intense, affection calls with various forms began to take shape. In fact we had two meetings because of his seriousness to make me a companion. The desire to marry often thrown, even though we'd both been to college. At that time, our relationship is not just a friend, like the language of young people now, "relationship without status", or "friends but cordial."
We finally discuss both our closeness to each parent. Until when he was studying out of town, she wants to meet and know me ask me to stay in their home for 3 days. Likewise with my parents who wanted to know him, so he came home to stay in touch. In the eyes of both of them, we were lovers. Even when staying at his house, his mother had introduced me to their families, and they mean me as his girlfriend. Strong desire to marry was finally mounting and he ventured to speak to her parents and my parents to ask permission to step up to the altar. And the answer they're both the same, wait till both finished college and he got the job anyway. If counted, at least we have to wait 2 or 3 years.
Since the beginning I've felt there was something wrong with our relationship. Because somehow, even without a clear status, our relationship really like people who are dating. In fact, from the knowledge that I could at the time, there was no courtship in Islam. My heart was upset and felt very irresponsible with the newly flowing veil, and a new attitude is being repaired. Out there, along with my friends know through religious activities on campus, we often talk about how illicit relationship like that, defamation and adultery are forbidden by religion. However, behind it all, I got in touch with the opposite sex are either really going to be my destiny or not. Plus the assumption of both our large family, who both think we are lovers. At that time, my heart was really heavy burdened with a sense of hypocrisy.
Actually, at that time, his decision to marry into such a wonderful answer and remove guilt. However, that has not been given permission to four parents, and the expectation that the shadow must we go for 2 or 3 years, made me open my eyes. Question - the question began raging in my chest. "So have to wait 2 or 3 years? Is not that long enough? What will we do during the waiting? Every day like this? What if I died at that time? Is not love him as a good that he gave? Not to keep him like this, I have hurt him? "At that point, I intend to finish, but another question raging in my heart. "What I'm confident with my decision? What if he'll forget me? What if he'll be paired with? What if you later, I will not find someone like him again?. "
And finally, one day after grappling with that question, and I decided kumantapkan heart to end all this, with a belief in the destiny of Allaah ta'ala alone. That whatever I do, if Allaah wills we destined, it will still be married. If Allaah does not want us to be married, even though waiting for 3 years, then we would not be paired. That to get the good, should start with the good. Whereas, it is God who is aware of what is best for his people. And finally I will let him go, because I prefer the love of my Lord.
Hearing the decision to end our relationship, he was struck and repeatedly asked his mistake to me. And repeatedly told him, all for the good of all of us, to avoid libel and adultery heart. I told him, if indeed he meant it about the intention to marry and believe in fate Allaah, I ask him to come again 3 years later, when all was ready. During that time, I asked him not to call again, and to concern themselves with knowledge as well add me and wished only to Allaah ta'ala. If not, I let him go in order to find another companion were much better than me.
And actually, the hardest of all of this, is our family. Due to our large family already involved and aware of our relationship. And they hope that we stay together despite having to wait 3 years. But after I explained, they slowly turn over all of us, even if they are not sincere with my decision as well as him. For more than half a year, yet he was always diligent in touch though I ignored. I thought, one day he will be tired and understand that all of this is really for our own good.
And finally, all communication was completely cut off, he had not been contacted. Until one day, suddenly there was a foreign number calling. When I answered, it was him. He asked to speak with his mother, that's all over, as it turns out, has been continuously blaming her and thought she was the cause of our relationship ended. I told him that I've explained it many times, and I told him to be patient still explaining to his mother. And actually, as long as it did, her mother was frequently in touch, just say hello and my activity.
Not long ago the phone, I finally knew, was already there "successor" in his heart. Another woman somehow, he knew already for a few months. It is the answer when he stopped in touch, which initially I thought because he was sincere with my decision, but it was because he got my successor. Hearing that, deep down inside I'm very sad and angry. He knew I was an end to all this because we both wanted to save from the brink of adultery and slander and deeper. I wonder what was on his mind, but the man was very weak and it is not able to keep him in order not to get caught adultery and slander again. Once again he did with other women and this time also he wants to marry her. And of course, parents are not allowed, but because he was still in school and have not been able to provide, they still want their future with me. Hey brother, can not you be patient and restrain your passions?
I agree destiny Allaah. That we were not destined. I was already mengikhlaskannya. And after all, I am very grateful to him, for having extended his hand to me and grateful to God met me with him. He was part of the test that God gave me. And then I will pray the best for him and his family, may he soon finish school and get a good job. And hopefully, by qualifying from their parents can make it to get permission to marry the woman he loved. And hopefully, the parents let me go. Now, almost 4 years we really - really never communicate again. Because it is the best for us. And may all end up happy in the future. Amen. . . InshaaAllaah.
