In a boarding school full of rules, Sara, a girl from a rich family, feels the pressure of a life she never imagined. Forced to pursue religious knowledge, he plans an escape from the boarding school which he considers to be an obstacle to freedom. However, meeting Ustadz Rafi, a strict teacher, changed everything. Harsh punishments are meted out, leading Sara on an arduous journey, where her character is tested and life's deeper values begin to dawn on her. In this story, trials and conflicts open the door to personal growth and understanding of the true meaning of life.
In a luxurious housing complex, there lives a girl named Sara. Sara comes from a wealthy family, where a luxurious and extravagant lifestyle is part of her daily life. However, Sara's comfortable and luxurious life changed drastically when her parents, Mr. Rahmat and Mrs. Siti, announced the decision to enroll Sara in an Islamic boarding school.
A family gathering in an elegant dining room sets the stage for this unexpected announcement.
Mr. Rahmat: (seriously) "Sara, we think it would be better if you studied religion at Islamic boarding school. This is about gaining deeper life values."
Mrs. Siti: (adds) "You will grow into a strong and faithful woman at the Islamic boarding school. This is an important step for your future."
Sara, who was used to the comfort and freedom she had, felt shocked and couldn't believe it. He tried to persuade his parents not to send him to boarding school.
Sara: (in a desperate tone) "But, Father, Mother, I won't feel at home in Islamic boarding school. I don't want to leave all this, the life I have known so far."
Mr. Rahmat: (firmly) "You will learn more about life in Islamic boarding school. This is for your good, Sara."
Although with a heavy heart, Sara finally obeyed her parents' decision. He left his magnificent house to live a different life at an Islamic boarding school. But there, Sara felt uncomfortable and had difficulty adjusting to these changes.
In the Islamic boarding school dormitory, Sara missed the comfort of her luxurious room and the servants who were always ready to help. He also misses the freedom to choose the activities he wants to do. The simple life and strict rules at the Islamic boarding school made him feel confined and unhappy.
Sara tried to voice her discomfort to her parents, but they still agreed that Islamic boarding school was a good place for her. Every time Sara tried to ask permission to return home, her parents' answer was always firm, "This is for your own good, Sara."
Time passed, and Sara continued to struggle at Islamic boarding school. However, one day, between religious lessons and boarding school activities, Sara begins to understand that there may be valuable life lessons behind all these difficulties. He is determined to find a way to find peace and happiness, even in the midst of changes he doesn't want.
One hot afternoon at the Islamic boarding school, Sara, who felt constrained and unbehaved, tried to make a plan to escape from a life that she considered not in accordance with her wishes. However, fate said differently when he met Ustadz Rafi, a teacher at an Islamic boarding school who was known for his strict and often annoying attitude.
Sara, with pent-up annoyance, tried to avoid Ustadz Rafi while moving around the Islamic boarding school. However, fate brought them together in a small gang behind the Islamic boarding school building.
Ustadz Rafi: (in a firm tone) "Sara, what are you doing here? You should be in the Koran class."
Sara: (in a sarcastic tone) "I'm just looking for fresh air, Ustadz. Can't I go out for a moment?"
Ustadz Rafi: (stares sharply) "Islamic boarding school is not a place to play around. You have to obey the rules."
Sara felt increasingly annoyed, especially because Ustadz Rafi always blocked her every small attempt to seek freedom. In a sharp tone, Sara tried to express her dissatisfaction.
Sara: (in a high voice) "I'm tired of all these rules! I can't live like this!"
Ustadz Rafi: (cold) "The rules are there for your good, Sara. Islamic boarding school is a place to shape character and educate spiritually."
However, in Sara's heart, resentment and the desire to escape burned even more. One night, when everyone was asleep, Sara tried to escape from the boarding school. However, not long after, the tough Ustadz Rafi discovered the plan.
Ustadz Rafi: (firmly) "You cannot escape reality, Sara. Your life here is part of your destiny that must be accepted."
Sara felt shocked and desperate. Even though he was annoyed with Ustadz Rafi, he realized that running away was not the right solution. He was forced to return to the Islamic boarding school and face an unavoidable reality.
Even though Sara's resentment towards Ustadz Rafi still exists, this experience was a turning point in her life journey at the Islamic boarding school. Sara then learned to accept the situation and look for deeper meaning in every challenge she faced.
After the incident that night, when Ustadz Rafi found Sara trying to run away, the atmosphere at the Islamic boarding school became increasingly tense. Ustadz Rafi felt the need to give punishment as a form of discipline and confirmation of the Islamic boarding school's rules.
The next day, Sara was called to Ustadz Rafi's office. He felt shaky and restless, knowing that punishment was waiting ahead.
Ustadz Rafi: (seriously) "Sara, what you did last night was a serious act. You violated the boarding school rules and tried to run away."
Sara: (in a guilty voice) "Sorry, Ustadz. I can't stand all this anymore."
Ustadz Rafi: (firmly) "Your decision to run away is unacceptable. This shows disobedience to the existing rules at the Islamic boarding school."
Sara: (holding back tears) "I just want to feel freedom, Ustadz. I feel pressured here."
Ustadz Rafi: (cold) "Punishment must be given so that you and others understand the consequences of breaking the rules. You cannot avoid your punishment."
The punishment given by Ustadz Rafi was quite harsh. Sara is required to do extra tasks, such as cleaning the Islamic boarding school yard and helping with daily activities. Apart from that, he also has to follow special guidance to build character and discipline.
Sara felt hopeless and angry at Ustadz Rafi. However, as time went by, this punishment actually helped Sara to better understand the values desired by the Islamic boarding school and appreciate the ongoing process of character formation.
Ustadz Rafi, while remaining firm in giving punishment, also tried to give advice and support Sara so she could get through this difficult time. Through this journey, Sara began to see that Islamic boarding schools are not only places of religious learning, but also places where a person's character is formed and tested.
