EPISODE 2
I heard that…
you are marrying Baiduri, right?
When did I ever teach my wives…
to put more trust in others?
BROKEN HEAVEN
Why would I marry her…
when I have my wives who can give me everything that I want?
I've already have four wives.
How can I add more?
Is my angel feeling jealous?
Peace be upon you, Walid.
And unto you be peace.
Can I have a chat with you?
Sure.
-Masyitah, you can go first. -It's fine.
She can tag along because what I'm going to talk about…
is exactly the same as what she wants to say.
What is this about, my angels?
Did you let your emotions take over you again?
I've told you, right?
The demon really love someone who can't control their feelings.
Actually, I have concerns about Rabiatul.
That's right.
I have the same concerns too.
I understand her role in your preaching.
She is your spokesperson for the women.
But, that is her role in preaching.
As for a wife, she should have…
the same role as us.
Yes. It's the same.
I make no distinction between my wives.
My love is the same for all of you.
You are lying.
You're not being fair.
Rabiatul often gets more than any on us.
She even get our turns of night.
Even Hafizah always gave up her turns for Rabiatul.
Whatever it is, Rabiatul always gets the most.
Is that being fair mean to you?
Since when have you dared to defy God's rules?
Habibah, have you lost your sense of gratitude?
Just forget about Borhan and Jalil.
They only listen to Walid's order.
It is you who always advises Walid with strategies…
to grow this Jihad Community.
That was not me.
That was from the Messenger of God through me.
You are the only person who can do that.
They don't have that ability.
I am sure that Walid would never…
let anyone take his place except for me.
I can see the duty placed upon me.
So, I must be ready from now on.
But, dear.
Don't you think Rabiatul is aiming that position…
when Walid is no longer here later?
How is it possible for a woman to be a leader?
Leaders should be men, women shouldn't exceed their place.
They can't get higher. But, this world is already wrecked.
There are many female leaders these days.
It's wrong!
It's defying the natural order.
That's why natural disasters happen.
Now, I must get ready.
I must come up with a strategy.
As soon as Hambali comes back,
I will make sure to get him to be our leader.
He and I will be together.
Our unity…
will strengthen the empire that we will rule.
Amen!
Peace be upon you.
-And unto you be peace. -And unto you be peace.
Sarina, can I meet Abi for a second?
Hold on.
-Peace be upon you, dear. -And unto you be peace.
I need your permission to return to my hometown for a while. Can I?
What is it about?
I want to visit Ramlah.
She gave birth this morning.
It was your younger sister who gave birth, not you.
Besides, your family despise our relationship.
Why must you go back?
They will surely talk bad about our community.
Dear, I just need a short time.
A day or two would be enough.
Do you want to oppose my word?
I won't allow you.
Do you know that your heaven lies on me,
not your family.
If you insists,
the divorce will take effect.
How many time must I say this?
A preachers's wife's role…
is to uphold her husband's mission.
Because that's where your heaven lie.
The thing I've done in my preach…
can never be questioned.
I marry all of you under the Messenger of God's command.
If I can't defy his command,
then neither can any of you…
to question me.
I have firmly reminded our community not to let emotions…
or thinking to take over.
But, it was my own wives that falls for it!
All of you still don't understand the meaning of patience,
acceptance,
and sincerity.
How can you make it to the heaven if none of you can grasp…
the meaning of sharing?
How can God elevate your rank…
and status if your heart can't still accept?
Where are the qualities of Khadijah,
Fatimah Az-Zahra,
and Aisha?
I'm ashamed…
for failing in teaching all of you to be the role model for the others.
Forgive us, Walid.
God have given His mercy upon Jihad Community.
What will happen if God get angry and take back what He's given to us?
I don't want all of you…
to be the reason of Jihad Community to perish.
Habibah.
Including today, this is your third time complaining about my other wives.
Your mind is in a mess.
Do you know what awaits…
the troubled minded people of this place?
Forgive me, Walid.
Merely saying sorry isn't enough, Habibah.
You will be sent to Labuan…
until you realign your intentions in this community.
-Amen! -Amen!
Even the Messenger of God implies women as drinking glass.
Despite the beauty of the glass cup,
it easily cracks…
and shatters.
It's not easy to fix a shattered cup.
That's right, Walid.
It's not easy to fix a shattered glass…
into it's original shape.
Surely, there are flaws.
That's right.
That's why…
many people throw…
their cracked and shattered cup.
God sets a mans's honor so high…
that for a wife to attain heaven,
need to obey her husband.
A wife's heaven…
lies only with her husband.
I understand, Walid.
Maybe this is…
the end of my marriage with Rosnah.
Since she disobeyed my word.
Maybe God want to get you a new "cup."
The one you can pour water inside.
A cup that can withstand hot…
and cold water.
A cracked glass should not be kept at home.
Tonight is my turn.
Don't act foolish…
or pretend you got the dates wrong…
nor attempt to discuss things with Walid tonight,
costing me losing my turn tonight.
Stop feeling like you're mighty.
-Mom, I think… -Yes?
I want to find a job.
Well…
Instead of doing nothing at home.
If I go to work, I will get paid.
Right? I can give them to you.
Don't trouble yourself.
Well…
You went far to study overseas, only to come back and take a simple job?
What about the knowledge you gained?
Are you making a waste of it…
without benefiting others?
Let's take things slowly, Mom.
Besides,
as I wait for the right job,
I'll take on any job. Right?
Why don't you work at the Jihad Community?
No.
What can I do there?
You can help the community.
Walid wants someone…
who aims to work, and is well-versed in religious matters.
I'm not interested with what they strive for.
Striving for God and His Messenger is beyond mere interest.
Don't act proud with that shallow knowledge of yours.
Jihad Community is having a gathering tonight.
Come with me.
I seek forgiveness from God.
What is it about this time?
Whose feet's water are you drinking this time?
Don't be rude!
I said, come with me!
Just listen to me.
Your heaven lies beneath my feet.
DARUL ARIFF CHILDREN'S HOME
I'm telling you…
that your place in heaven is secured.
As long as you take care the orphans here,
your place in heaven is promised.
Amen.
But, I don't see any improvement here.
There are still just 24 orphans.
Didn't I told you before?
Mrs. Numi,
keep in mind that we don't have much money…
to maintain this orphanage.
You have to make an effort.
At least getting 80 people.
I've tried my best, Walid.
But most of them prefer the government funded orphanage.
Walid, what if we waive the fees…
and offer it for free?
With more residents,
it'll be much easier to attract donations.
Or maybe…
let's take in children of divorced parents.
At least,
the children is still within the community.
Include the children from Zaujul Al Um too.
Oh Gosh! Ever since I'm here,
it's always me who has to handle all these children.
The other wives would not have to lift a finger.
Then, they dump their child to me.
As if I'm a servant!
Even more, these kids are so naughty.
I seek forgiveness from God.
Come here.
Remember God, will you?
Come on, remember God!
"I seek forgiveness from God."
Remember the God.
What's wrong with you?
What did Walid told us before?
We all have our duties.
We have our roles.
There are reasons for us…
to be a part of Walid's life.
As for me, it is for my preach.
And you, with this great responsibility.
I'm talking to you.
Do you still remember what Walid told us?
The highest honor of a wife…
is in dedicating her life to her home.
Setting up everything for her husband.
Just give this great responsibility to someone else then.
I'm exhausted.
Do you really hope people to appreciate you…
with your duties when this is all for Walid?
He's your husband.
Every drop of your sweat…
will be measured for your place in heaven.
And now, your gate to heaven is opened.
Carry it out with pure intent. The reward is immense.
Until when?
Until when will I be treated as an unpaid servant?
Until you find yourself…
and the God.
At that time, you will stop complaining.
That is the greatness of true sincerity.
Those who is willing to lend to God.
A good loan.
Offering their wealth in His name,
and He will grant it back…
in multiplied measure.
Increasing their sustenance.
And to Him,
you shall be returned.
God has willed it.
Walid, I sincerely contribute to this…
without seeking any reward.
I believe that you can strengthen…
the financial status of our Muslim community.
Praise be to God.
Tan Sri, you are the chosen one.
God paves the way…
for you to do good deeds.
I hope that…
you can build the Jihad Community empire in this place, Walid.
God's willing.
Another program?
Yes, they often held two to three programs a week.
Asyikin, if I don't go with my mom, who will?
We even need to ride a boat to go to that place.
Please, Baiduri. I'm reminding you.
Don't let anger takes over you.
They outnumbered you. And you are on your own.
Don't act brave.
Okay, fine. I promise to control myself this time.
But, I will still go with my mom this time.
I want to see what absurd things they'll do there.
God's willing.
I just have one thing to tell you.
We have rules and regulations in this place.
First and foremost,
obedience.
Obedient to all teachers.
Especially, Walid.
Secondly,
respect and virtue.
If we obey our teacher…
preserved our respect and virtue with them,
God's willing,
we will gain blessed knowledge.
God's willing, Ummi.
If we want to reach God,
we must obey our guide.
He is the only person who can guide us.
Just think of it…
as you staying in there…
to defend your mom's faith.
You wish to be a defender of religion, right?
This is your chance.
I'm guilty. Please forgive me, Ummi.
God is great.
You are aware…
that in our community,
Walid alone has the power to decide your partner.
Until Walid makes a decision,
that means…
the call for you to marry has not yet come.
Yet you place your lust above your belief!
Idiot!
You would make a fuss every time I'm going there.
But when I ask you to come along, you refuse.
You are so stubborn.
This is what happens…
when people only chase worldly matters.
I can't understand this.
Listen to me.
If you want to seek the afterlife, there's no need…
to be so obsessed like that.
You can just go to the mosque right in front.
It's close too.
But no…
You're willing to cross rivers…
for the sake of "knowing God."
Is that so?
The thing is…
What you learn there is just the same as in the mosque.
No, it's not.
The Ustaz at the mosque are only focusing on worldly matters.
I can't feel anything.
When they are preaching,
I can't feel anything. Nothing.
We must learn to live in a community.
We must follow The Messenger's way of life.
Yet, to pursue religious knowledge,
one must first obtain their husband's approval and permission.
Only then will the knowledge be meaningful, Mom.
The Quran clearly says…
for a wife to attain heaven,
must do this one thing,
obey to her husband.
Obey to your dad?
What religious knowledge can I gain from him?
-I seek forgiveness from God. -What is it? Tell me.
Enough.
I'm tired of arguing about this.
If you wish me to leave the community,
I will never do that.
That is the only place for me to be near to God.
And I won't listen to you.
Get ready.
Wear your hijab with a face cover.
I'll wait.
Hurry up!
This call to strive in Jihad Community is under God's command.
Losing a preacher from the path of preaching…
does not mean its cessation.
See for yourselves,
the missing of Ashabul Kahfi from their home for 300 years…
did not keep their people astray.
On the contrary, they turned into believers.
To this day…
God has sent me…
and all the faithful who stand with me,
after the passing of the Ashabul Kahfi.
For what cause?
For us to come together.
One purpose,
in striving for Jihad for the community!
All of you should be grateful to be here and to meet me.
For God has granted you be the people…
to spread His faith in this ending world.
And for that,
we must watch out for the devil…
who resents our unity.
Where is Habibah?
I don't see her tonight.
Is she feeling unwell?
Normally, she would be here.
Habibah was sent to Labuan to realign her heart.
But, what was the reason, Ummi?
That is what happens when a woman refuses to accept her fate,
-turning away from God's plan, -Praise be to God.
and losing gratitude.
These are what I want to remind…
for my dear followers.
Peace be upon you all.
-And unto you be peace. -And unto you be peace.
Praise be to God.
I am grateful…
that our guide gets to delivers his messages tonight…
to the followers who will stand with him in heaven.
Tonight,
by Walid's power,
and the direct guidance from the Messenger of God…
for the good and blessings…
of his people,
three person have been chosen…
to conclude their life in this world,
by devoting themselves…
to the one…
who will be their heaven.
The first person is…
Salmiah Khairuddin,
alongside her heaven, Sheikh Ali Amirulah.
The second person is…
Muhaimiah Syukur,
alongside her heaven,
Sheikh Karim Al-Baraqbah.
Praise be to God. Thank you, Walid.
Do they like getting married like this?
Of course.
It is a blessing to marry these scholars.
And the last person is…
Liyana Suria Abdul Ghani,
alongside her heaven, Sheikh Husien bin Hassan.
Oh God! Thank you, God. Thank you, Walid.
Praise be to God.
They are marrying these old men.
What rank does these wives hold?
The youngest one, of course.
The younger wife will get seven nights together.
And a widowed…
will get two weeks.
Nice, right?
Salmiah Khairuddin,
I marry you…
to Sheikh Ali Amirulah,
with the Messenger of God as the witness,
under my guardianship, Muhammad Mahdi Ilman,
with the dowry of a Quran.
Peace be upon you.
And unto you be peace.
I want the part that Walid drinks from.
Here, just a bit.
Give it to the others.
Excuse me, what are they doing?
Walid's leftovers are blessed.
Have some.
No way!
I don't need others' leftovers to get blessed.
There are plenty of ways for us to get God's blessing.
TO BE CONTINUED…
BROKEN HEAVEN
Our very own Salahuddin al-Ayyubi is home.
-God is Great! -God is Great!
He is the future leader of Jihad Community,
so we must celebrate him!
My aunt says everyone has to drink the water from Walid's feet.
