Apple and Idris

Once upon a time, there was a young man named Idris, a sholeh wanderer. Being exhausted of his journey, he went to the river he saw after had a long trip and sunny daylight. He washed his face and then had some drinks of the water from that river. "All praises to Allah, You've given me safety by this water". Then, Suddenly came out something floating on that river approaching Idris. He took it, and very excited that it was an apple. "This probably sustenance for me". Then he eat the apple. When the apple mostly done eaten by Idris, he suddenly realized "Astagfirullah, this apple must be owned by anybody who have the apple tree". Idris was very sad because he had eaten it before getting the permission from the owner. Thus, he decided to looked for apple tree to get permission from the owner. He walked and walked along the river to find out, and then it came up to him an apple garden.
"Ah, This apple must be the property of the owner of that garden"
Suddenly, An old man appeared and he was the owner.
Idris said "I am so sorry, I have eaten your apple without your permission first, what should I do to make ypu forgive me? give me punishment because of my bad"
"Alright then, Because of you fault, you must clean up my garden everyday for a whole month" replied the old man
"OK"
Idris did the what that old man said. He cleaned the garden a full month everyday as the responsibility of eating a floating apple in the river without permitted. The old man was very pleased by the attitude of Idris.
"Idris, after you've cleaned my garden, there was one more thing you must do before I forgive you"
"what is it?"
"you have to marry my daughter, Rukoyah. But, she is blind, deaf, dumb, and paralyzed"
Idris was very startled that he had to marry the old man's daughter of all that sudden, but he really need the forgiveness of the old man, so he did the old man punishment.
For the surprise, what the old man meant by blind is Rukoyah had never seen any bad things by her eyes, She deaf because her ears had  never used to hear any bad conversations, she dumb because she had never said bad words, and she paralyzed because she had never went to maksiyat places.
Idris was very happy, he married a beautiful woman with very good attitude.
And then, It was born a baby from their marriage, a boy, he gave him name Muhammad bin Idris Asy-Syafi'i or well-known as Imam Syafi'i.
A very famous ulama' that brought Syafi'i Mazhab.

So, That was the story about Imam Syafii's parents. This story I heard this afternoon, after Dhuhur pray with mita and papa. Then mita and papa correlate it with Phsycology knowledge, that the develompment of phsycological aspects of someone is started not only when perninatal periods (when we are in not born yet), but far back from that, It is about how our parents meet that can influence their children in the future. So, parents should look for the best for their daughter or son to be married with.
