Once upon a time,Sunan Kalijaga in

Once upon a time,
Sunan Kalijaga in Pati,
Central Java. He asked his
friends ki Rangga to go with
him. Several servants also
joined them to carry their
luggages, and they began
walking to Sunan Muria’s
house.
Several hours later
Ki Rangga felt tired. He was
embarrassed to walk
together with Sunan
Kalijaga, because Sunan
Kalijaga did’nt look tired
while Ki Rangga was very
tired and thirsty. Finnaly,
Sunan Kalijaga asked Ki
Rangga to take a rest under
a big tree. It was time for
the Dzuhur prayer, but
there was not water around
to clean up or ‘wudu’ Ki
Rangga was confused. He
told Sunan Kalijaga about it.
Sunan Kalijaga only smiled
and said, “We should pray
for Allah SWT for water.
Now, you must guard this
big tree, Ki Rangga. It might
bring water to us, but
remember! Everything
happens, because Allah
SWT. Don’t act alone. You
must inform me when
water comes out. I will be
behind that hill.” Ki Rangga
promised Sunan Kalijaga to
inform him when the water
came out. So Sunan Kalijaga
went behind the hill. Ki
Rangga with his Servants
set under the big tree. They
quuickly fell a sleep.
Suddenly, water came out
of the big tree. They drank
and played in the water. Ki
Rangga forgot Sunan
Kalijaga’s message to
inform him when the
water came out.
Behind the hill
Sunan Kalijaga was worried.
So he went to the big tree.
He was surprised to see Ki
Rangga and his servants
were playing in the water,
“You forgot my message to
inform me when the water
comes out. Instead you are
playing in the water is like
a turtle,” said Sunan
Kalijaga, softly. A miracle
happened. Ki Rangga and
his servants turned into
turtles. Ki Rangga was sad.
He had changed into turtles,
because he did’nt keep his
promissed. The water
formed a pond. It’s now
called Sendang Sani, in Pati
Central Java. Many people
still visit Sendang Sani now.
