Pengikut Nabi Ilyas semakin tertekan.
Mereka semakin sengsara dan kelaparan.
Karena sikap Bani Israel yang berlebihan.
Maka Allah Swt. menurunkan azab berupa kekeringan dan udara yang sangat panas.
Hidup mereka menjadi sengsara.
Orang-orang kaya pun menjadi miskin.
“Ini pasti gara-gara Ilyas. Ba’al pasti marah karena kita tidak berbuat apa-apa untuk Ilyas. Kita bunuh Ilyas!” umpat para penguasa Bani Israel di depan patung Ba’al.
Namun kabar itu terdengar oleh pengikut Nabi Ilyas yang setia dan melaporkannya kepada Nabi Ilyas.
Nabi Ilyas pergi dari rumahnya, ia bersembunyi di rumah seorang ibu tua yang memiliki anak sakit-sakitan.
Di situlah Nabi Ilyas bertemu Ilyasa.
Ilyasa sangat cerdas meskipun ringkih.
Atas doa nabi Ilyas, Ilyasa pun disembuhkan Allah Swt. dari penyakitnya dan menjadi pengikut Ilyas.
Kesengsaraan semakin terasa.
Kekeringan yang melanda tidak pernah usai.
Banyak kaum Bani Israel yang putus asa dengan Ba’al.
Barulah setelah kondisi seperti itu, kaum Bani Israel pun bertobat dan mau mengikuti ajaran Nabi Ilyas.
Maka setelah mereka beriman, Allah Swt. pun segera menurunkan hujan sehingga negeri kembali subur dan sejahtera.
Prophet Ilyas’s Hideout in the House of an Old Mother Who Has a Sick Child
Followers of the Prophet Elias increasingly depressed.
They are increasingly miserable and hungry.
Because of the excessive attitude of the Children of Israel.
So Allah SWT. bring down the punishment in the form of drought and very hot air.
Their life becomes miserable.
Rich people became poor.
“This must be because of Ilyas. Ba’al must be angry because we didn’t do anything for Ilyas. We’ll kill Ilyas!” cursed the rulers of the Children of Israel in front of the statue of Ba’al.
However, the news was heard by loyal followers of Prophet Ilyas and they reported it to Prophet Ilyas.
Prophet Ilyas left his house, he hid in the house of an old mother who had a sick child.
That’s where the Prophet Ilyas met Ilyasa.
Ilyasa is very smart even though he is frail.
Due to the prayer of the prophet Ilyas, Ilyasa was healed by Allah SWT. from his illness and became a follower of Ilyas.
The misery is getting worse.
The drought that hit never ended.
Many of the Children of Israel despaired of Ba’al.
Only after such conditions did the Children of Israel repent and want to follow the teachings of Prophet Elias.
So after they believed, Allah SWT. It immediately rained so that the land became fertile and prosperous again.
