Maria! Maria!

Fahri?!

I need...

Arab dictionary?

No... no...

English dictionary? No... no... Then what?

I... I need...

I... I need...

I need you to come over to my flat.

Now!

"Verses of Love"

One moment, Mama. I

want to go to Fahri's flat.

Please...

I don't know what's wrong with this.

You must've forgotten to

update the antivirus again.

The virus has wiped out all of your files.

Do you have any back-ups?

What kind of files?

Plenty.

But the most important

is my thesis proposal.

When is the deadline?

Three more days.

Fahri, you're not alone here.

Yeah... subhanallah, Maria...

I'm trying to find that book

about the prophet David...

There, on the table. We don't have it.

We do. Just try to look for it.

Your drink.

From who...?

From her...?

Assalamualaikum. Alaikumsalam.

Ful! Alhamdulillah, I'm so relieved.

Nurul told me that Mr. Jalal has

extended the deadline until next week.

So we can ease up a little.

Good, then.

Who's Nurul, Fahri?

Nurul is our friend.

She is Ustadz Jalal's niece. My mentor.

She often helps us if we have problems.

"My Beloved..."

No way! It's all mine!

Finished, Fahri?

Yes! Alhamdulillah.

Finished, right? Return them now!

"Wedding Invitation"

Fahri?

Congratulations. Thanks.

Fahri!

Bro...

Congratulations. Thanks.

What did she gave you? Nurul...

Apparently you have a

talent to be celebrity.

Let's go upstairs.

So regeneration is very important.

This organization is like a campfire.

The members are the firewood.

To keep the fire burning...

we have to continually find new firewood.

How come a guy like Fahri isn't

married yet? What is he waiting for?

Would you want to be with him?

You bet I would... Ssshh... be quiet!

Even if there's only one person

who is willing to support it...

If it's God's will, then it will happen...

I am not forcing you, son.

You are a big boy now.

Marriage is your personal

affair. I'm just reminding you.

I haven't been able to fulfill your

and father's wishes yet, mother.

Moreover, it's hard, mom...

I haven't yet found the woman

that Allah has chosen for me.

Isn't there an Indonesian

girl who is suitable for you?

How about Nurul? The

one you often mention.

Nurul is just a friend, mom.

Moreover, it's impossible that Kyai

Sirath's daughter want to marry me.

If Allah has intended so, anybody

can become your soul mate.

Yes, mom. Assalamualaikum.

Waalaikumsalam.

Fahri! Where are you going?

I want to "talaqi" at Al Azhar.

Can you buy me a CD? It's hot outside.

That's your favorite.

The CD is on me.

Thanks a lot for the mango Juice.

What kind of human are you? You

can't even carry this thing up!

You prostitute!

It's very hot here. It's common, Fahri.

What is this? Another letter?

Please keep it, Syeh. Holding it scares me.

This is why we are

supposed to get married.

Aside from perfecting religion,

marriage is to avoid slander.

And also to give spiritual composure.

How are you, Fahri?

How are you?

Where have you been?

From "talaqi".

How was football yesterday?

Who won? Zamalek, of course.

Fahri, those are American infidels.

How was the football, Ashraf? Tell me...

You didn't watch?

I fell asleep.

No! Please take my seat...

It's OK. I apologize for they

behavior. They don't understand.

Oh muslimah, why did you offer

her your seat? They are infidels!

I don't have heart to see her...

They deserve it! We're

intentionally not giving them seats.

Are you a muslimah or not?

I'm sorry. She's just try to help.

My mom's not feeling well, cause it's hot.

Islam teaches us to be kind to everybody.

But not to American infidels!

Do you know what the Americans

did in Afghanistan, Palestine, Iraq?

They're accusing Muslims

of being terrorists...

whereas in fact they are the terrorists!

I don't care about all that!

Who are you? What is your problem?

I am an Indonesian and you

have offended Rasulullah.

You have defied the prophet...

and to be hostiled against Allah

later in the judgment day.

He is an Al Azhar student from Indonesia...

one of Syeh Utsman's Talaqi students.

If you are indeed one of Al Azhar's...

what do you know about the

suffering of the Arab Nation?

If any foreigners have

entered a country legally...

then their honor and

safety must be protected.

They're not foreigners!

Americans are terrorists! Infidels!

Muhammad SAW said, "He

who hurts foreigners...

hurts me. And whoever

hurts me, hurts Allah."

We may hate somebody's bad deeds.

But we still have to maintain fairness.

Stop it! What have you done? You

could be jailed, for Allah's sake!

Be patient! Be patient! Call Allah's name!

Calm down, everybody. Please calm down.

Hey, I'm Alicia. Thank you so

much for your help back there.

Your welcome, my name is Fahri.

I'm very sorry, but in Islam man

can't touch women except his wife.

Really? Actually I'm a

journalist from America.

And we're here searching about Islam

You think we could talk more?

Here's my card.

OK. I'll help you. Thanks.

This is my card. Okay.

Great, thank you so much. Your welcome.

Bye.

Thank you Indonesian. Your welcome.

Are you an American? No, I'm German.

You can speak German?

A little, Alhamdulillah.

My name is Aisha. My name is Fahri.

Is this yours? Alhamdulillah,

I thought it was lost.

You are a good Muslim. I rarely

come across a Muslim like you.

Assalamualaikum. Alaikumsalam.

Uncle... Do you know an Al

Azhar student from Indonesia?

His name is Fahri.

Fahri... Oh yes, I know him.

He is Syeh Usman's favorite

student, My Talaqi's teacher.

Why?

Fahri? Maria? What are you doing here?

Before I got here, there were only two

things that I admired about Egypt.

Namely Al Azhar... and the river Nile.

Because there would be

no Egypt without The Nile.

And there would be no Al Azhar.

I love the Nile, too.

If the Nile didn't exist, there

would absolutely be no Egypt.

No civilization. Only desert.

Do you believe in soul mates, Fahri?

Yes. Everyone has... Their own soul mate.

That's what you always say.

I think Egypt and The Nile are soul mates.

How wonderful it would be if we

could find that one soul mate...

God has chosen for us from heaven.

Not from heaven, Maria. But

from the heart. Very near.

Astagfirullah. Sorry, Maria, I have to go.

Assalammualaikum.

Walaikumsalam, Fahri.

I almost forgot to give you that dictionary.

You need it, right?

To write the article your

American friend asked you to?

What about the sponge cake?

That's because I remember

that you always forget to eat.

Thank you, Maria. You're welcome, Fahri.

Uncle, when will you tell Fahri?

Have you spoken to your father?

I have, uncle. I told you that father

wants you to speak to Fahri.

Be patient. I'm busy correcting

dissertations. Still have piles of them.

Don't get surly.

Okay, I'll talk to Fahri this

month. Thanks, Uncle.

You prostitute!

Maria, did you hear that?

Yes... Forgive me... You prostitute!

Can you help Noura? I

can't bear to look at her.

Salman Aristo

Salman Aristo (born 1976) is an Indonesian screenwriter and film director best known for his work on Ayat-Ayat Cinta, Laskar Pelangi, Garuda di Dadaku, and Sang Penari. Born in Jakarta, Aristo became interested in films from a young age, though he did not consider a career in the industry until after graduating from university. At the suggestion of a friend, he wrote his first screenplay, Tak Pernah Kembali Sama. With feedback on the script from director Rudy Soedjarwo and after a period reading old, successful scripts, Aristo – at the time a film reviewer for a magazine – was able to befriend Hanung Bramantyo, who asked him to write a script about brownies. The resulting film, a critical success, led to Aristo receiving numerous requests for screenplays, including several adaptations of novels. In 2010, he released his directorial debut, Jakarta Maghrib. Aristo, who is married to fellow screenwriter Ginatri S. Noer, is influenced by several Western and Indonesian screenwriters, including Woody Allen, Robert Altman, Richard Linklater, Richard Curtis, Arifin C. Noer, and Asrul Sani. He has been nominated for three Citra Awards for screenwriting, although he has yet to win. more…
