By Heriyanto Rabuan

Alexander, guided by Angel Rafa'il, sought to know more about the worship of the angels. His quest for knowledge was fueled by his love for worship.

Angel Rafa'il revealed to Alexander the existence of Ainul Hayat, a source of water granting immortal life, located in a dark land.

Alexander, intrigued by Angel Rafa'il's words, gathered the scholars to discuss the Ainul Hayat. Their wisdom, however, could not pinpoint its location.

Among the scholars, Prophet Khidr emerged with the knowledge that the dark land was at the place where the sun rises.

With Prophet Khidr's guidance, Alexander embarked on a journey towards the dark land in search of Ainul Hayat. It was an expedition filled with anticipation.

The journey lasted 12 years, traversing across vast lands and seas, until they reached the place where the sun rises, in line with the qibla.

Upon reaching the edge of the dark land, Alexander and Prophet Khidr braced themselves to enter the foreboding landscape. The darkness was unlike anything they had seen before.

As they ventured into the dark land, they moved cautiously, guided only by their faith and the promise of finding Ainul Hayat.

As they walked, Allah revealed to Prophet Khidr that Ainul Hayat was to the right of a ravine. It was a privilege reserved specifically for him.

Upon receiving the revelation, Prophet Khidr moved to the right of the ravine. There, he found the Ainul Hayat he had been seeking.

Prophet Khidr removed his clothes and approached Ainul Hayat. He bathed in its waters and drank deeply, securing his immortal life.

After his encounter with Ainul Hayat, Prophet Khidr returned to Alexander, who was still wandering in the dark land, unaware of what had transpired.

Unaware of Prophet Khidr's experience, Alexander continued his search for Ainul Hayat. He wandered in the dark land for 40 days.

Despite the challenges, Alexander remained steadfast in his search for Ainul Hayat. His faith guided him through the darkness.

After 40 days, Alexander emerged from the dark land. He returned without finding Ainul Hayat but held on to his faith and love for worship.

His journey, while not yielding the expected results, had strengthened his faith and deepened his understanding of the divine.

Back in his throne room, Alexander pondered upon his journey. It hadn't led him to Ainul Hayat, but it had been a journey of faith and wisdom.

Alexander realized that the journey wasn't about finding Ainul Hayat. It was about understanding the divine and deepening his faith.

With renewed faith and wisdom, Alexander continued to rule with humility. His love for worship remained as fervent as ever.

Alexander's journey had taught him valuable lessons. It further solidified his reputation as a devout and God-fearing ruler.

Alexander left behind a legacy of faith and wisdom. His quest for Ainul Hayat was remembered not as a failure but as a journey of spiritual enlightenment.

His story served as an inspiration for generations. His pursuit of knowledge, faith, and humility became a beacon for many who sought divine wisdom.
