Kemarin, saya mampir ke Madrasah saya dulu. Kebetulan Abah sedang ada disana.
Abah ini guru ngaji saya.
Dulu saya benar-benar buta huruf hijaiyah dan beliau yang mengajari saya sampai akhirnya bisa membaca al-qur'an, bahkan lancar baca tulisan arab gundul.
Walaupun dulu terkesan galak, tapi sebenarnya beliau baik sekali.
Salah satu ajaran beliau yang selalu saya ingat sampai sekarang adalah, bahwa kita harus banyak membantu orang lain. Beliau bercerita bahwa setiap menjelang lebaran, beliau akan mengajak ratusan anak yatim untuk beli baju dan sepatu baru. Anak-anak yatim tersebut bebas memilih apa yang mereka s**a.
Semoga ilmu yang beliau ajarkan dan amalkan terus mengalir :)

Yesterday, I visited my Madrasah (a term for Islamic School). And I met Abah.
Abah was my teacher back then.
He's the one who taught me to read Qur'an from scratch. Though he seemed so strict, deep inside, he is a really good man.
One of his lesson that I remember until now is that we have to help other as much as possible. He told the class that every end of Ramadhan, he would take hundreds of orphans to buy new clothes and shoes. And the orphans are free to choose what they want, as long as they're happy.
May all the lesson he has given always live in our heart :)
