Learning story from Hajar Ummu Isma’il

History there; Sarah had statement to cut the Hajar’s body in three pieces if Ibrahim the Prophet don't keep away Hajar and her son Ismail. As painful, Khalilullah Ibrahim ‘alahi wasallam grant his first wife request. Ibrahim the Prophet bring his wife Hajar and his son Isma’il on dale even there are no grass growing and only has purvey water. After Nabi Ibrahim place the child and his wife then he return back to his area. Ibrahim is back home by walking with tears and he don't look back although his wife Hajar call he. Hajar up to pursue his husband and say, "Do the God command to you to do this?" Ibrahim answer shortly, "Yes". Then mentioned the statement from Hajar defining her obduracy soul, "If this is Allah command, undoubtedly He will not waste in us". That a secretor statement had shown strength of believe and height of her tawakal attitude which get tarbiyah from the slave of choice also, Ibrahim the Allah lovely.

After Ibrahim his husband is beloved from his view, Hajar put her son Isma’il at the sand, then she spotting to around hope to find sameone khalifah which can help she and her son. Then Hajar go on a hill —that is Shafa hill–, she looking around hope there is passer-by someone or khalifah who he can ask help. Cause she don’t see passer-by someone or khalifah, then she is downwards go to the other one hill, when passing in front of her child Isma’il she walk rather quickly and continue the way going to the other hill again namely is Marwah hill. And again she was looking around above of Marwah hill. She don’t see passer-by someone or khalifah and also about a life sign. Their provisions that water only also have almost eaten away. she are very panic and worry. Hajar then alight from the Marwah hill return again to the Shafa hill for the same purpose. Confuse, jumpily Hajar soul at that moment, nobody can he ask help, is increased to by her son Isma’il looked to be very thirst so also with she, panic and worry.

She run again to the Shafa hill hopefully come in seeing someone or a khalifah, feel don't find something then she run again to the Marwah hill and so on seven times (this Hajar deed Allah subhanahu wa ta’alla immortalized it by one of the hadji syi’ar so-called with Sa’i).

Most noble Allah, which has never forgotten His promise, in fact Allah’s help are just round. Allah ‘ azza wa jalla will give way out or solution, give rezeki from out of estimated direction for his god-fearing which has tqwa and tawaqal to Allah. So also with Hajar, a wife from the Allah lover, both is Allah’s slave within very close on Allah, at her fearing and her confusion, a story that; appear wellspring laid at close Isma’il. See that thing Hajar rush to the wellspring and say. ”Zum, zum!” meaning ‘gather’. Hajar then drink from that blessing wellspring (till now) and give also his child Isma’il drink, Hajar very thank goodness once of grant from above of God subhanahu wa ta’alla.

Allah ‘ azza wa jalla help are not desist that thing only, short time after that, someone kalifah walking in to Hajar and her child place. That Khalifah request Hajar permit to take that Zam-zam water and they also interest to stay together with Hajar. Hajar of course very happy and receive by open arms that good bargain, finally she are not alone again. Alhamdulillahilladzii bini’matihii tatimmush shaalihaat.
