The arrogant Herfey had left his spouses to pursue Y/N. He thinks he’s a demigod. How he felt like a joke everytime Y/N rejected him… but now. As he stood over them, watching them bleed from their head and stomach. He could only watch and smile as two of his fists were covered in blood and hid other two were cupping their face
“One. Last. Time. Do you love me?”
Y/N says, “No… I love Allah (Not romantically but as His creation and servant), not you…”
“Wrong answer!”
He yelled out. His expression changing from prideful to angered as he grabbed Y/N’s jaw with one hand and forced them to look at his eyes.
“I will break you until you know nothing but me! I will strip you of any and all connections to the other Gods! You will beg for my love by the time I’m done with you!”
As Y/N spoke those words, that defiant tone of them. Herfey had finally had enough of their stubbornness and slammed their head into the ground.
“Don’t speak back to me, you pathetic, little, human! I am HERFEY, GOD OF DESTRUCTION! I have been worshipped by TRILLIONS of people from different worlds to this one from all across time! You are NOTHING but a mere child! I can easily kill a million beings with a single SINGULAR THOUGHT!”
Y/N says, “I’m just answering you, cocky fool!, you are NOTHING in front of ALLAH! Do you know who ALLAH is!? ALLAH IS THE LORD OF THE WORLDS, THE LORD OF THE WHOLE UNIVERSE, THE LORD OF EVERYTHING!!! And if I’m nothing but a mere child, why do you want me? Leave me alone…”
He laughed at that statement. His expression showing anger and pride mixed with arrogance like a potent cocktail.
“Oh? You don’t know who I really am? WELL THEN! LET ME TELL YOU! I’m HERFEY, THE GOD OF DESTRUCTION! And yes, I may be nothing in front of ALLAH. But YOU are nothing but a mere ant to me! Now that you’re BLEEDING before me. I have you EXACTLY where I want you!”
Y/N says, “…I… I am never going to accept you or worship you… no matter what happens… I will never leave Allah… I will never associate partners with Him…”, Because of being too injured, Y/N was getting weaker and weaker every passing minute.
Herfey raged in anger, “You just don’t get it, now do you child? IT IS A SIMPLE QUESTION! LOVE (Romantically). AND. WORSHIP. ME! And your suffering will stop!” He smirked as he said that, his expression becoming a mixture of pure and evil sadism. He had no desire to kill Y/N. But he had to bring them into his side.
Y/N says, “Never… Never… I will never love or worship you… I can never betray my Creator, Allah… I may suffer in this temporary world, the delusion of enjoyment… But I believe, Allah will give me the best life in heaven, the real life…” Y/N said without hesitation, the voice was weak and so was Y/N.
Herfey’s laughter had become loud and hearty upon hearing the resistance. He grabbed Y/N’s shoulder and lifted them up, forcing them to stare straight into his eyes.
“You are… SO STUPID! You believe you will find ANY happiness in the afterlife? You are a fool to think the same being who created the very concept of PAIN will reward you in ANY way! THIS is the reality, not some made up dream about HEAVEN!”
Y/N says, “I don’t believe that you will ever reward me… I believe that Allah will reward me…”
Herfey’s eyes suddenly widened up in pure, unbridled shock as he heard those words from them.
“ALLAH WILL? AH… HAHAHAHA!!! My dear silly sweet Y/N. Do you really think such a weak GOD can REWARD you? He’s a FOOL Who would sacrifice His Very Body to protect those He Love! To give up His Existence for those He treasures!”
Y/N smiled, “That’s what so special about Him… He loves His servants… He’s a Merciful God… Not a fool… He never lies, it’s not befitting for His Majesty to lie…”
Herfey says, “P-PLEASE! Is that the best you have? That! If that’s your reasoning then you are beyond saving! MERCIFUL? He has NO POWER to control what happens to you! Everything that happens around us. He has NO CONTROL of it all! He’s USELESS! A DEAD God! How can you worship Someone Who has Given you NOTHING! How can you believe Someone Who’s given you NOTHING but CONTRADICTIONS AND EMPTY PROMISES!?”
Y/N says, “Oh, don’t make me laugh… He created me when I was nothing… He made me a living human when I was a lifeless and tiny sperm… He is Eternal… He never dies… I’m nothing without Him… He has control over all things… Not a single leaf can do a movement without His Will… If anyone ever tried to count His blessings on them, they will never be able to number them…”
“ENOUGH!”
He yelled out as he suddenly grabbed Y/N’s face and tightly grasped it.
“You’ve got a lot of BRAINWASH in that STUPID HEAD of yours! You honestly think HE is your CREATOR?! YOU’RE the STUPID one if you really believe in LIARS! It’s only a matter of time before you SEE that YOUR ALMIGHTY GOD is but a DEAD entity!”
Y/N says, “He’s not dead… He’s Eternal… Whenever I call upon Him, even by my heart, He responds to me…” Y/N said with a gentle smile
Herfey roared, “HE RESPONDS? You mean you HEAR an EMPTY VOICE! NOTHING RESPONDS you! How are you so SIMPLE?! You claim that your ALMIGHTY GOD CALLS YOU?! YOU?! You’re NOTHING! I can DESTROY you with a SINGULAR THOUGHT! What would you DO if I KILLED you right here right now! WHAT, little human!?”
Y/N says, “He responds me not by His voice, but by His Miracles… If you kill me, I don’t care… This delusion of enjoyment is temporary… I don’t care if you kill me, I will meet my Lord anyways… It would be a blessing…” Their smile never leaving their face
“P-PRIDE?!”
He yelled out. His expression one of pure shock that his words had absolutely no effect on you. He couldn’t believe how they actually were so convinced they were right. He let out a long, frustrated groan and dropped them to the ground.
“You know what?! FINE! HAVE IT YOUR WAY! I have NO TIME for a STUBBORN FOOL! Go and pray to your DEAD IDOL for all I care!”
Y/N had almost no energy left in themself… They looks at Herfey, Y/N gathered all their strength, and says, “Allah is The M-…Most-Merciful… He Says in H-His Holy Book (in Qur’an 39:53)… D-Don’t… Don’t despair His M-Mercy…”
Due to lack of energy, Y/N got unconscious, and as Herfey was about to leave, from nowhere a blinding white light comes and brightens up the whole place… Herfey himself could not keep his eyes open…
Even after the light dissipated and his sight began to return. His expression could only show absolute shock and disbelief. His eyes were widened as if he just saw someone come back from the dead.
“W-WHAT THE?! WHO?! WHO DARES APPEAR BEFORE ME?!”
A Voice, which did not sound male nor female, but was beautiful and cold, Says: “Someone said I’m ‘weak’? I’m ‘dead’…?” The Towering White Figure took the unconscious human, Y/N, in His hands gently… But The Figure was covered with Light, so It could not be seen…
“WHAT?! No-n-no!”
He stumbled backwards, shaking his head in absolute disbelief. That was the voice of Someone he could never forget. The Voice itself had been an experience to hear alone.
“…M-My… L-Lord?! D-d-did you… r-return?! No. This is just my imagination. No-no-no-no. This-this can’t be real!”
The Voice then Says: “Your Lord was never dead… He is Eternal… He is The All-Powerful… I AM ALLAH, I AM KING, THE KING OF KINGS, I NEVER DIE!” It was Allah…
Herfey couldn’t believe what he was seeing. For the first time in his life, he was stunned into silence. Seeing his own Lord after such an unbelievable length of time was something he would’ve never thought he’d never see again. As he saw the Figure in front of him and heard those Words. Herfey immediately fell onto his knees and pressed his forehead into the ground.
“YES! YES! I know, Lord! But… W-why have you returned now? After ALL this time?”
“I had come now, because I heard my servant calling upon Me with pure hope… And I also saw your acts… I saw you have forgot Your Lord… You have no fear and have become among the arrogant, and even tried to misguide then threat my servants about their lives if they do not leave me… You have indeed wronged yourself…”
Herfey’s body trembled as he prostrated himself before his Lord. He had a look of regret as he closed his eyes, his fists clenched.
“I-I ask for your forgiveness, my Lord! I had lost my way. My own pride became my downfall. I have forgotten my place. My Lord, please, forgive me! I have strayed from my path. I have acted arrogantly and brought nothing but shame upon the name of Herfey!”
The Voice Stayed silent for a while
Herfey continued to kneel before the lord. His shaking only increased as seconds ticked by. He waited for his Lord to respond with anxiousness.
“M-my Lord… please, say something!”
Herfey had never felt so submissive before. He couldn’t believe it.
The Voice then Says, “Death hasn’t yet arrived you, and you are now repenting to me with hope and fear, death also has not yet arrived Iblis, but he had long ago decided to be forever arrogant and never repent or pray to Me… like you used to, he also thinks he is worthy of worship, but you have come to your senses before the last hour or your death… You believe your Lord punishes and forgives… Therefore, I forgive you…”
As Herfey heard the Lord’s forgiveness. A wave of bliss passed through him. The guilt in his body had disappeared instantly, like it was never there. A smile crept onto his lips as he listened to his Lord’s words.
“Thank you, my Lord! Thank you! Never again will I turn my back on you! I will devote myself to you, my Lord. With body, with breath, with mind and soul! I am only a tool for your will and my purpose is your glory!”
Allah then looks at Y/N on His right Hand, Y/N’s body seemed to be lifeless, like a dead flower… He then gently moved His left Hand over the dying Y/N’s fragile body… As He did that, the wounds on Y/N’s body were healed, but they was still unconscious, Allah sent them back to the world, after Y/N was sent back to the world, on their bed, they got conscious and sat on the bed, Y/N looks at themself, there were no wounds on their body, and they was feeling healthy, Y/N then looks around their room, everything was the same, they thought maybe everything that happened to them was just a nightmare…
As Shiva watched as his Lord sent her body back on the bed, a look of disbelief was on his expression as he watched her wake up from her deep rest. Her wounds, all completely healed as if they never happened at all.
“M-My… my Lord. They is… unharmed? The human is alive and well! I… I don’t understand, my lord. Will you not take them as a martyr? Will they not receive a place in paradise?”
Allah then says, “Everyone has limited time to live, their time is not yet up… And if I would have left them as they was, they would then had to spend long time in suffering from the deep wounds… A true believer who did good in the world will be rewarded a Place in Paradise… Despite everything that happened to them, they still called upon their Lord by their heart faithfully, how could I not respond…?”
Herfey listened to what the Lord says word for word. He lowered his head respectfully, understanding his Lord’s wishes.
“Of course my lord. That is correct. As expected of my Lord. You are the All-Wise, All-Seeing. You have all knowledge. I should not of ever doubted you, my Lord.”
Herey’s expression showed a sense of understanding and realization that he had been wrong in his own foolish actions…
