In this time, I’ll
tell you my special experience. It’s about my journey to Mekkah & Madinah.
Ya it is about Umroh. Why its so special??? Hmmm.. its hard to say it in a
word,especially in english. But ya, it should be a special moment to change
someone behaviour right??
So one day my mother
want to do umroh,because some reason my father couldn’t join with her so they
asked me to company my mother. *it is forbidden for any moslem girl to have a
long journey without her family. I have to say, that at first I not too
interest with that idea. There are several reason, one of them is about
money.*even it is not my own money. i just feel that it is too much, fyi. I have
to give private class in physics in order to support my economical balance.
(nope. I do it just for buying koi). I said to my mom, that it’s better to keep
that money to apply for haji. But then my mom told me that “insyaAlloh, there
will be another Grantee from Alloh so you can go Haji”. Then okay. But my heart
don’t support 100%.
When finally come
some trouble. There are 2 mains problem. The umroh schedule is same with Koi
competition in Jogja, and I have a good relationship with the leader of that
event. I just feel uncomfortable if i couldn’t join that event. I tell this problem
to my mom. And BINGGO. Haha. You can imagine lah. My mom already “alergic” with
my activities in koi because i buy so many koi in one time.hehe. The next problem is, one night i got a really
bad stomached. I worried that it is hernia/usus buntu. Then finally i contact
my family in solo at midnight. I worried if i have to get operation or
something like that,that’s make me cannot travel for along time. I got an
examination from dr.x then alhamdulillah it is not hernia/usus buntu. Its just
ketudun, then i remember that last day i just jump after having sit up. Haha. Oke,
case closed. Finally i have been registered by my mom to join umroh.
My heart still
not support 100%. I don’t know. And my father always ask me. “how about your
preparation?? “ “ have you memorize all of the Doa?” “ do you know the rule
about umroh” bla bla bla. He always ask me about that then finally i decide to
join manasik umroh. It is about short training held by the EO of umroh. Then finally
my heart support 100 %. The ustadz tell me so many benefit that I can gain from
Umroh, thats make me think not to throw away this opportunities.
So it is the day.
My schedule is 20th feb, and buuump. Mt.Kelud erupted in 14th feb. I got an
information from airport that my flight to jakarta canceled. So i decide to
take train from solo to jakarta first. Jukijakkijukkijakkijuk. I came to
jakarta!!!yea... in this capital city of Indonesia there are several agenda
that should be done before I flight to Jeddah. The most important things is to
change IDR to SR. Hehe. In that time i told to my mother. “ Mom, I realy want
to buy mahar for my marriage” haha...
then my mom replied, simple. “ give me info about your future wife, I’ll
looking for the right mahar”.. buuump. Mom please.. i’m still single.. T.T
So we enter the
airplane, Etihad Airways. Aaaand Take Off.
To be continued.
