The Prohibition on Saturday Pahing
Long time ago, Wirasaba Region ruled by Adipati Wirasaba named Raden Tumenggung Rahutomo. He
had a very beautiful daughter named Raden Rara Sukartinah. Actually, RR
Sukartinah have been
married with the son
of Demang Toyareka. Then they divorced because RR Sukartinah didn’t love him. Although a
widow, RR Sukartinah still sacred like the other girls.
One day, Sultan
of the Sultanate Pajang named
Hadiwijaya visited to
Wirasaba. When Sultan
Hadiwijaya arrived at the
palace of RT Rahutomo , RR Sukartinah provided dinner to him. After seeing the beauty of RR Sukartinah, he
wanted her to
be his wife.
"Rahutomo, your daughter is very beautiful. In
addition, she also
has a good heart too. I wish one day you visit Pajang along with your daughter.
I will give a rousing welcome when you get there later.”
"Thank you, my majesty. With pleasure,
I accept your offer."
Demang Toyareka knew Sultan
Hadiwijaya will propose RR Sukartinah. He wanted to take revenge on the Wirasaba Duke and made
him shame.
"Sukartinah will not marry with Sultan
Pajang! I have to
follow Rahutomo behind him secretly ."
Arriving in Alun
- alun Pajang, Demang Toyareka
hid while waiting RT
Rahutomo out from the
palace.
Inside the
palace, Sultan Hadiwijaya expressed his desire to RT Rahutomo.
"Rahutomo, I
want your daughter, Raden Roro Sukartinah become my mistress wife. She is very beatiful and well."
"Of course, my majesty. Sukartinah
definitely want to be your wife. My Majesty, I will return to Wirasaba, and let
Sukartinah stay in
your palace."
Demang Toyareka knew RT Rahutomo had came out of the
palace. In a hurry, he
headed to the palace and faced Sultan Hadiwijaya.
"Your honor,
actually Sukartinah is a widow. She is not a virgin
anymore. Formerly she was my law. You have
been lied by Adipati Wirasaba.
Do you want to marry a widow?"
"What are
you saying! How dare Rahutomo gave me a widow! Patih, come on. I order you to
chase Rahutomo and kill
him!"
Patih immediately
went after RT Rahutomo. Meanwhile,
Sultan Hadiwijaya went to the Kaputren Park to meet RR Sukartinah. He
asked for extensive details about her true
self.
"No, my majesty. I am a widow,
but I still sacred. I never allow the
son of Ki Demang Toyareka to touch me at all yet. Because I do not love him. That's why we
divorced, my majesty."
Hearing this, Sultan
Hadiwijaya very surprised. He apologized to RR Sukartinah, and ordered the other Patih to pursue the first Patih to cancel
the order to kill RT Rahutomo.
It was a Saturday
Pahing. RT Rahutomo and his entourage rested in
Pasanggrahan Bale Malang in Bener Lowano
village. They ate Banyak fish. The second Patih have found the first Patih. He gave
the code to the first Patih to not kill RT Rahutomo.
"Do not kill
him!” (memberi kode)
"Huh? What?"
"Do not kill
him!"
"Okay."
However, the
first patih thought
that code mean as soon kill him. So, he went straight to Pasanggrahan, and
piercing RT Rahutomo from behind. (lari
lalu membunuh)
Before he died,
RT Rahutomo gave
testament to his entourage.
"All my children and my grandchild in
Banyumas, you don’t travel in
Saturday Pahing, do not make house Bale Malang, and do not eat Banyak fish. It’s a testament of me that you
should always remember."
From now on all the people in
Banyumas continue considering the will.
