Henry Alexander sat down softly to hear the sweet sound of azan. The heart seems to be called and wants to enter the mosque immediately. Walk slowly into the courtyard area of the mosque by pulling his suitcase.
The first to be found was an old man wearing a white turban. Large tall and bearded and white-haired. Polite, unpretentious and smiling to anyone found.
"Assalamualaikum, Ustad," said Henry Alexander as he reached out.
"Walaikum salam, where are you musyafir?"
Fortunately from a small Henry Alexander lived in Singapore so that he mastered the Malay language is almost the same as the Indonesian language, "I am from European Italy, Ustad."
"Do you speak Indonesian?"
"My name is Henry Alexander, I am of Singaporean and Italian Malay descent."
"Call me Kyai Din."
Well Kyi Din, thank you."
"Can you help me, Hendy boy?"
"I want to ask for guidance and advice, Kyai."
"Of course it is with pleasure, but we pray first!"
"Please, Kyai Din. Thank you." Thank you."
As Henry Alexander has always done these past two months. Just looking at Kris who did worship from the brink. Pay attention to movements ranging from takbir to salam.
There is a very touching difference seen and heard by Henry Alexander. When Kris did the prayer himself never hardened the reading sound. But now witnessed his voice loud and very melodious.
The melodious voice was almost the same as when Krim was reading the holy verse after performing the prayer isya. The only one Henry Alexander knew was Surah Al fatiha. Because from yesterday often heard the first surah in the holy book and often tried to understand its meaning.
Kyai Din invited Henry Alexander to breakfast with the other mosque administrators. Talked familiarly when I just met an hour ago. Increasingly adding to the admiration of Henry Alexander judging about the hospitality of the people of Indonesia.
Almost six in the morning, Henry had the opportunity to express his intentions and goals. Who originally intended to see the splendor of a place of worship. Now increasing confidence to immediately strengthen the heart hijrah one belief with Kris.
"What was the motive for Henry's son's conversion?" ask Kyai Din.
"To be frank initially because of a woman whom Henry loved, but after more than two months of studying the heart began to be convinced."
"Alhamdulillah, Where has Henry learned this belief from?"
"Henry learns from books, guides from friends and sees the daily life of friends while performing worship and often looks for answers on social media if there are doubts."
"Are there any obstacles while learning that belief?"
"There really isn't, but there's the biggest obstacle when Henry will step up to the next stage."
"What is that, son Henry?"
Henry told me the biggest obstacle was the extended family of Mama Cristine. If desperate to do so there will be a big split in the big family later. Do not want the family to be divided just because of the problem of conscience that can not be forced.
"Unfortunately the belief is the property of all people, the family has no right to determine where the belief grows, but it would be nice to be directed and sit down together to talk about it" advises Kyai Din.
"That's what Henry sometimes hesitates about, Kyai. Besides, the woman Henry loves will step down if she doesn't get the family's blessing."
"Does Son Henry still intend to move because he wants to get married?"
