In one fine dhuhur time,
I was about to do my takbiratul ikhram for dzuhur salah. A
white man went down the stairs, heading the place where I was standing. This
place was located in a quiet ground floor of main library. Because it was
quiet, we muslims set this place as unofficial location to do salah, we put
sajadah and praying veil there.
Knowing him, I
cancelled my takbiratul ikhram and
asked if he wanted to do salah, he said no, then went away. During my salah I
was questioning myself whether he’s muslim or not. First, the place for salah
is unofficial so everyone can go but for unknown purpose because it was very
tranquil and had nothing. Second, if he’s muslim and about to do the salah,
it’s weird as he wore shorts and shirt just like western guy normally wears.
As I finish my salah,
I went up and passed through that man with his two friends. Then they went down
together. I was shock as they walked down the stairs and did jama’ah with all
appearance they wore–shorts, shirt, and even one of them wore sleeveless one. Subhaanallah Muslim Colors.
