After the arrival of Sukoco, other people sprang to the place of Ki Mahmud Tidar. From everywhere, there are even from outside Java. All are human beings who are looking for the truth in themselves. Some claimed to know from supernatural messages such as Sukoco, some felt like they were led there, some were told by those who first mingled.

Not everything is clearly marked. There are some whose signs are still vague. It is the murshid's duty to help him realize his true intention. For right intention is the first gate to Him. The truth is that it can still be hijab on the way by a variety of monkey bells if it is less firm to hold the order, especially those that have been wrong from the beginning. Guaranteed to fall out in the middle of this mustaqim sirathal.

Not a few are also forced to be rejected because the murshid sees no sign at all in them. There is not even a vague. Intentions other than God. Most want supernatural abilities or want worldly glory. Although it has been detained but news about the ability more or call karamah that is in Ki Mahmud Tidar can not be completely dammed. Slowly seeping out. Hazri gave it back to him. He still did not feel entitled to anything. What are the rights of the creature?

Due to the number of brothers who continue to grow, Hazri asked permission to his murshidnya to use the name ‘Safinatun Najat’ for the dhikr assembly in Tidar. Mr. Subakir did not mind, even very supportive. Sometimes he came to Tidar escorted one or two brothers jadug, his friends Hazri in Progo first, to join alawasulan. Do not want to be privileged, blend with other brothers, then actively ask when muthalaah. That is, as a lure to increase understanding for the brothers there. Does not listening add understanding to understanding?

Faruq forgot to talk to Mr. Subakir during Hazri's wedding. It's been a while. So, he did not realize who this ‘ikhwan tua’ is. As a senior brother, Faruq often asked Hazri to help answer questions from the brothers. Includes questions ‘ikhwan tua’ it. Shaykhuna Progo was also bearded to hear Faruq's explanation. Glad to know the progress made in his students' grandchildren. Because he knew who he was, then his pretentious style made Hazri often chuckle to himself. The brothers were confused to see the Murshid laughing for no reason. It's thought it's down Wangsit. Ono-ono wae.. .

Socially, there is no change in Hajj Mahmud. Just like in the past who diligently congregate in prayer fardhu in the mosque, which provides non-budget funds, which are many smiles, which are enough to use a sit-down motorbike. I still have it first. The difference, in addition to being the owner of a pigeon cut farm, now he also leads a dhikr assembly that every midnight Monday and Jum’at always visited by people dressed in all white. They were pondering until dawn. Ustadz Faruq was there, along with Mr. Sekdes, Karno, Marno, Sugeng, and several other prominent citizens.

Allah's Will. Although Faruq once said that Haji Mahmud is ‘Pasak Bumi’ his village Tidar, but apparently not all residents were moved to find his true self. They respect Haji Mahmud, knowing that he has karamah and high knowledge, but the fact is not all then realize who this antique man really is. Despite being told back and forth by Faruq with simple silokas, it was still a dead end. He was frustrated because of this.

But Hazri scolds him hard.

“Ustadz, it's not appropriate for us to do that. Isn't everything Him? Do not feel obligated to tell others about the truth. The right is in God. Only for those who seek, those who have inheritance. Sharia is for all. The laws, postulates, shi’ openly. If it feels, how do you teach it? Taste is not to be taught, but tasted. How to teach true taste without being taught and having no spiritual journey? Try Ustadz explain to me the sweet taste. Try, sweet is...”.

Faruq. He tried to string the words together to explain the sweet taste, apparently never could. At best, sweetness is like the taste of sugar. Back to taste again. What if the person has never tasted sugar? It's just sugar. Is that what Allah says...? Mistakes can be a defamation of the universe.

“Yes, Mr. Haji. I'm sorry,” he said slowly.

Hazri laughed a little. “From Allah back to Allah. Why should Ustadz apologize to me? Or, should I forgive Ustadz? But, that's the truth. Sharia, apology accepted, hahaha.”.

Faruq also grimaced.

“That's, Ustadz. The fact is not to be broadcasted general. Tabligh akbar on the ball field. It can't be. If you want to go ahead, but must be ready to be pounded by the masses. Don't be angry, don't complain. As Mansyur al-Hallaj answered when asked, what is tawhid? He said, if I tell you, then you must be cutting me off. His will, it turns out that Shaykh al-Hallaj really opened the secret later on. So, beheaded.... As he was being herded to the execution ground, he danced while whistling. I want to go home, hahaha.... Well, Ustadz has been brave like that yet?”

“If not, shut up,” Hazri smiled.

Faruq nodded in understanding.

“There are two main lines, abid and arief. Abid is a worship expert. Those who practice Islam correctly. His prayers, his fast, his zakat, and his hajj are all right in his execution. According to the guidance of the Sharia. It's not worth it, it's incredibly expensive. Unattainable by creature standards. Allah is even willing to reward him with paradise, where rivers flow beneath him. Arief is a master of the macrifat. Those who do not want to be other than the Owner. Said Shaykh Ibn Atha’illah, abid on foot to heaven, arief flew directly into his presence.”

“Like the shiddiqun and rabbaniyun yes?” ask Faruq.

“Not like, yeah that's what they are. Shiddiquns are worshipers and rabbaniyuns are masters of makrifat.”

Faruq. Already long ago he knew this understanding, since the time of college in the pesantren. But now I understand its meaning.

“Nah, those who are arief, do not need to then feel higher than his abid brothers. And abid is like that. Do not easily accuse infidels of their arief brethren. Why should it be so stormy? Is not God the only one who knows a person's faith? The others are only about, missed anyway. Careful ah. True faith is not speech. If you only talk about iman-imin, iman-imin, the Fia can also, hahaha.”.

“So, how to do, Mr Haji?”

“Quiet. Live and be grateful for all that God has set for each of us. Don't wander on, especially without his knowledge. Could serious. Like Mr. Ustadz, it's now heading to Arief. Abid used to be, right? Insha Allah be abid arief. Our abid brethren, leave it in his abid. Except for those who seem to have signs, may be given a little crossword puzzle for fishing. If there is no sign, there is no need to pull. Can kill them later. Just look after each other. Each of them do not most people, binoculars themselves are right. Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi. From Him back to Him. End thing. Not just for the dead, got to everything.”

Faruq sighed. Very satisfied he heard this mursyid explanation. Eve was amazed to emanate from her.

Hazri felt that. “Don't be amazed so, Ustadz. We just discussed innalillahi wa inna ilaihi rajiun. Tuh, right? Because of Ustadz I was rebuked as the Most Wonderful. You see, I was also amazed by Ustadz Faruq who wanted to be taught religion by doro breeders. What's not going back?”

“Hahaha..,” Faruq also laughed.
