Kapanlagi.com - Sometimes, a person's heart is like a time bomb that can explode at any time. This is also felt by Muhammad Ghaza Al Ghazali, the son of Aa Gym regarding his marriage to Teh Ninih.
Through a Facebook post, Ghaza poured out his heart which he had been keeping to himself about Aa Gym's abusive treatment towards Teh Ninih, which he believed should not be done by a husband to his wife.
"Almost one year has passed, precisely one week before our wedding day. Heavy, without his presence. But, what can I do. When a question is thrown, 'Why is she present?' It's as if my tongue is tied to answer it. I don't know what the right words are to answer such a question," Ghaza wrote in a Facebook post.
"'Why should a mother be present at her son's wedding?' What do you think is the right answer to that question? Will you answer it easily? Or will you be silent, shocked because your father asked you that?" he added.
1. Strong Figure of a Mother
Aa Gym's treatment towards Teh Ninih has been felt by Ghaza to have crossed the line, as his mother has chosen to remain silent all this time. For Ghaza, Teh Ninih is a strong figure of a mother in facing all the problems within the household.
"If only, yes, if only. I could answer with, 'Sorry, why is Father here?' I would definitely answer like that. But, yes. That's how my mother is. I don't know in which corner of heaven she was born. I don't know where she hides her wings. Always yielding, yielding, and yielding. Always yielding. That's her choice," expressed Ghaza.
"It's a pity that she gave birth to me in this world. Both of my feet are still on the ground. Making it so difficult to catch up with you and fly high. With your noble character, your patience, in facing everything. Keeping everything neatly, choosing to remain silent, then pouring it out to the Owner of the sky and earth, when we are asleep with our dreams," he continued.
2. Sentence 'Praise' From the Father
Furthermore, Ghaza revealed that Aa Gym's unpleasant treatment was not only directed towards his wife, but also towards his children. For 15 years living with his parents, Ghaza always received 'praise' sentences that hurt their feelings from his father.
"'You are a polytheist', 'You are a hypocrite', 'You worship creatures', these are the sentences of praise that we always hear. Yes, always. When eating at a restaurant, going to school, gathering together, and maybe even in every corner of this earth, there is only a reminder of those sentences," Ghaza recalled.
"But you. Yes, you. I have never heard a sentence that hurt our feelings from you. No. Words that hurt us. How long, huh? Yes, only a short while. Maybe around 15 years. The melodies of praise that fill our hearts," he continued.
3. Not Staying Silent
As a child, Ghaza was moved to do something about his family's condition. After staying silent for quite a while, Ghaza finally decided to speak up because he couldn't bear to see his mother being tortured and manipulated by his father.
"Yes, that's right. It seems like there was a little game in the court yesterday. That's how humans are. Perhaps, 15 years was not enough time to torture you, maybe he still needs time to feel satisfied," he stated firmly.
"But, sorry. It's enough. The game ends here. June 5, 2020, tomorrow is exactly one year after you were divorced. And until this moment, you are being suspended, manipulated. Sorry, I can't stay silent," Ghaza concluded.
