Peace be upon you.
And unto you be peace.
Walid,
I have something to discuss with you.
BROKEN HEAVEN
Piety is carrying out…
all that God commands and abandoning all that He forbids.
There is no condition for a woman to enter heaven…
by obeying a guide…
whose guidance is uncertain.
We shouldn't jump to conclusions.
We need to collect concrete proof first.
Because we don't want to foster a culture of slander.
I have prayed Istikharah for nearly two weeks…
and was able to reflect with utmost clarity.
Well…
As one of your…
loyal and obedient follower,
I think…
it's time for me to fill the voids.
Take responsibility…
in protecting and leading another wife.
Praise be to God.
Surely, the best comes from God.
If your heart has opened,
it means the time has come.
You've left it empty for so long.
No…
It is not my intention to have another wife.
Well, after my wives…
Maimunah and Latifah passed away…
and with Rosnah acting up,
I don't want Salina to feel too comfortable in her spot.
And, there are many followers here.
What if we tie them into a marriage instead?
Sure. No problem.
Even the Messenger of God can have more than four wives.
Then surely we can too.
It's all depends on us.
God's willing, I am able in body and soul.
I do.
There's one more thing I'd like to propose…
for my son, Hambali.
Walid, perhaps you…
could find a match for Hambali as well.
God has willed it.
Both father and son wants to settle down.
It's nothing…
Just like what you said,
marriage with strengthen our community.
I worry if Hambali falls for a woman beyond our community.
God's willing.
There will be a match for him.
If possible, I propose…
it's best if you match Hambali with the children of our followers.
Perform the Istikharah prayer a few more times.
May the chosen one be exactly as God wills.
God's willing.
Sure.
Peace be upon you.
And unto you be peace.
Can I ask something?
Go on.
You just came back from Yemen.
You are filled with knowledge.
I believe…
God granted you the knowledge.
And with that knowledge…
you devote yourself…
in assisting the people in strengthening their faith,
and leading them toward God.
And I believe that is also the struggle of the Jihad Community.
That is the reason…
for us to be here.
Your father is one of the main leader.
Clearly, you know more…
about this struggle than I do.
So, my question is…
Is this so-called Jihad Community really in line…
with the teachings of the Quran and Sunnah,
for the sake of God and His Messenger…
to lead everyone to God, or…
I think you know what I mean.
You don't have to answer that.
With your knowledge,
you know what I mean, right?
Peace be upon you.
And unto you be peace.
SELF REFLECTIONS
Peace be upon you.
And unto you be peace.
I know what you are up to.
Everybody know…
that I'm waiting to board the boat.
So, what's wrong with that?
I'm talking about our struggles.
We have the same goal.
I am here to fight for my mom.
Guiding her to see what Jihad Community really is.
Me too.
Same, yet different.
Your life is here.
Your family too.
It's different from my mom, who was led astray.
And now, I made sacrifices to be here.
For what?
To help my mother see…
the corruptions that's happening here.
I have my own eyes to see all these taking place.
But, I am all alone…
to correct everything.
You want to save one person, I'm saving the whole community.
If we unite with a good strategy, with God's willing…
We can save the faith of the whole community.
In the name of God and His Messenger.
The young ones?
There have never been anyone coming to me…
telling what they saw in their prayers…
are some old woman.
That is the strange part, Walid.
After performing my Istikharah, I can picture the woman as petite,
fair,
and looks like a female Islamic warrior.
I guess God is delivering me a woman…
to assist me in my preaching.
May your vision truly come from God,
not a form of the devil.
God's willing.
Marriage and death are God's decree.
If marriage and death could be bought,
then God's presence would perish.
Let us entrust it to Him.
Because God knows what's best for us.
JIHAD COMMUNITY
Just follow what we planned.
No one should know, including your mom.
I won't, because I know…
my mom doesn't fully trust me yet.
It's fine.
Sooner or later, the truth will prevail.
Peace be upon you.
And unto you be peace.
Where are you from, Hambali?
Peace be upon you, Walid.
And unto you be peace.
Shuhaimi passed away.
I already know.
We surely belong to God and to Him we shall return.
Peace be upon you.
And unto you be peace.
What a good behaviour.
You are always going out.
You are working here!
But I didn't work here. I'm just serving.
What kind of serving?
You are paid!
Oh God, Mom.
I've told you before, right?
While looking for a proper job, I offer my service here.
At the same time I want to understand everyone here, that's all.
So, does that mean you can do anything you want?
Aren't you ashamed of Walid?
What will people talk about you?
But can't I go out at all?
I have things to do too.
Ask for a permission!
Don't just leave like that.
In the name of God.
Peace be upon you.
We surely belong to God and to Him we shall return.
With a heavy heart, we announce that a member has left us…
Shuhaimi bin Mohd Firdaus,
who has returned to God's mercy at 3:45 this afternoon.
God's willing.
The decease will be taken for burial after Asr.
We surely belong to God and to Him we shall return.
Wherever you are, death will find you.
Even if you hide in a mighty and fortified tower,
death will still seek you.
Trust that…
the certainty of death is undeniable.
The existence of the afterlife is undeniable.
The questioning by Munkar and Nakir is undeniable.
Awakening after death is undeniable.
The judgment of sins and rewards is undeniable.
Sirat al-Mustaqim path is undeniable.
Heaven…
is undeniable.
And the hell is undeniable.
The Judgement Day…
is certain to happen.
There's no doubt.
And God will awaken all those within the graves.
Excuse me.
The decease is your husband, right?
Yes, he is.
Why don't you follow them to the grave?
Women can't go to the grave.
Who said that?
Walid.
Walid said women can't go the to grave.
Stop it!
Get rid of this water.
What's the matter?
You are all here to learn to be faithful to God and to acknowledge Him!
Not disregarding God in this manner.
I am not disregarding God.
Involved in letting people drink this bathwater,
yet you say it's not disregarding God?
These are acts of deviations.
Is there any blessing in this bathwater?
All blessings comes from God.
I'm just following Walid's orders.
I am your leader.
Walid appointed me as the leader.
So, everyone must listen to me.
Throw it away!
Gather all the male members of the community here.
Go!
Can't we preach without practising polygamy?
Why follow just that particular Sunnah of The Messenger…
when so many more remain?
That is neither wrong nor sinful.
In the Quran, polygamy is allowed without any conditions.
As long as…
one can be fair.
But to be fair is very challenging.
Effortless for those with firm faith…
and practices polygamy with devotion to God and His messenger.
Practices polygamy with devotion to God and His messenger?
To me, having more than one wife is not considered a preach.
Unless…
if the woman being married truly needs protection.
In Jihad Community,
I notice polygamy has turned into a norm.
Polygamy is a test of devotion,
for the hearts of the husband and wives.
But this community's mission is to guide the followers of God's Messenger.
How can one preach to the followers of God's Messenger…
if they have yet to find sincerity…
and acceptance with just a single test…
called polygamy?
I wouldn't be surprised if you oppose polygamy.
Because you have yet to know God.
I seek forgiveness from God.
Simply because I oppose polygamy,
does that mean I don't know God?
If you do, you will be confident…
that nothing in this world belongs to us.
Everything belong to God.
If it belongs to God,
it should be shared.
Shouldn't we be ashamed to oppose it,
as if our husband is solely ours forever?
An-Nisa, verse 129 states…
And you will never be able to be completely fair between wives,
even if you strive to do so.
So do not incline completely toward one…
and leave another hanging.
In my opinion,
there are numerous ways to discipline the heart apart from polygamy.
I worry that women made victims in the name of preaching.
What I mean…
Exploiting women under the guise of preaching.
Is everyone here?
Now, I want you to clean this well.
Get rid all of the water.
I refuse to.
Will you fear God…
or follow these deviations?
This is not deviation!
Do you seriously believe drinking this bathwater…
is not a deviation?
The Quran never mentions such practices.
The Messenger of God never taught his followers to consume his bathwater.
-Get rid of this water. -We want blessing from our guide.
He's not just anyone.
If we don't obey our guide,
then whom should we obey?
If you all refuse, that's fine.
Let me do it myself!
Hambali!
I sent you to study, not to become an arrogant and prideful person.
I am not being arrogant, Dad. I am merely setting things right.
Who are you to set things right?
Dad…
Al-Khawthar is a river in heaven.
Like a pool made of the most beautiful and exquisite gemstones.
Its whiteness is purer than milk,
its sweetness surpasses honey,
and its fragrance is more delightful than musk.
This is the river promised by the Messenger of God…
for his followers who dwell in heaven.
Not from the so-called blessed bathwater of a human.
Where does the blessing in that come from?
That is the question of one who has knowledge but no insight.
The Messenger of God teaches us jurisprudence,
so we may know its rulings.
The Quran does not establish any law or jurisprudence on human bathwater.
Does drinking water from human feet bring blessings?
The jurisprudence helps us mend our ways,
disciplinary teaches us self-assurance,
inner truth teaches us submission,
and enlightenment teaches us to recognize our true self.
The body upholds the jurisprudence.
The heart commits disciplinary.
The soul lives the inner truth,
and the spirit experiences enlightenment.
If you confine yourself to jurisprudence,
you will grasp nothing else.
Worship through jurisprudence alone…
is worship without meaning.
Dad.
Disciplinary, inner truth, and enlightenment…
without jurisprudence…
signifies arrogance.
Without jurisprudence,
we will never truly realize what it means…
to be servants of God.
You are not here to teach me about laws.
In this community,
your knowledge is but a drop in the vast ocean.
Do not let a single drop of knowledge stir waves in a calm ocean.
Ummi Rabiatul!
What's wrong?
Forgive me, Ummi.
The water I was supposed to add to the well for the initiation night…
has been thrown away.
Who threw it away?
Hambali.
He said all of this is deviation!
TO BE CONTINUED…
BROKEN HEAVEN
You know that the religion calls for obedience to our guide.
Obedience by drinking foot water?
Without obedience to a guide,
the ship of this mission will not move.
But I am not certain of…
Hambali and Baiduri's obedience.
