Dear Hanna, You're so lucky to be born in a great family. Your great uncle Sultan Hamid II was an important figure in our history, but what happened to him later was also tragic. He was accused of supporting rebellion group and then sent to prison to become a political prisoner. It's like the regime at that time can't handle his great influence as a monarch and a leader, especially that he got a slightly different view on what's best for Indonesia. Thankfully, more and more people started to recognize him as the figure behind our national emblem, and learn more about him.

[@subrotoxing8214]

LOL an imporant figure in whose history ? When the family argued sultan hamid's deeds to the indonesian national hero board they showed off one of his achievement which was sultan hamid's corronation as major general by the queen of holland. In which at the same time, indonesia was facing the dutch military aggression. Since pontianak is in indonesia. I have to ask you when you say "our history" what country's history that is ? If you say Indonesia then that must be Indonesia in a parallel universe. As in the Indonesia in my universe he's been branded traitor for a very long time. Not only he was corronated as general by the queen of holand during the second dutch military agression he also tried to kill javanese sultan.

Sultan Hamid was a supporter of Dutch colonialism. There are many things that state this, 1. He was a supporter of RIS, 2. Honored by the Dutch Queen as a Dutch soldier when many Indonesians resisted and died in battle, 3. and many other things. I don't mean to say it in a bad way, but that's the reality. he was a traitor. Try to learn more about history from a different point of view. it's wiser.

The Garuda Pancasila State Emblem was an idea that was raffled off. The one chosen was Sultan Hamid's rough design, but the one who later painted and justified it was Pelukis Abdullah on Soekarno's orders.

My grand-uncle on my father's side who was a merchant trader married a Siamese princess at the turn of the last century. According to my father, she was exiled from Siam due to political infighting amongst the members of the royal family, and she was on the losing side. She settled down in Bukit Mertajam and lived until the 1950s. She used to regale my father and his siblings with tales of riding on white elephants, trips on the Royal Barge down the Chao Phraya river, and stories in general about her royal life. I think she counted herself lucky that she was not killed, just exiled. Traditionally, in most royal families in history, you would killed off all your potential rivals to ensure that they can't ferment revolution against the reigning monarch.

They were Malaynized Yemeni Arabs. After they migrated to many Malay kingdoms all over South east Asia and spread Islam, many of them intermarried with local women and princesses and adopted local native Malay cultures especially in Kalimantan and other Malay states. We can see all their attires, their custom or adat and their architecture are localized and no longer resembles the culture, attires and architectures of Yemeni Arabs. So that is why they consider themselves as Malays back then. The Pontianak Malay cultures actually heavily influence by the culture of Johor Riau sultanate and Singapore was part of the Sultanate. So Hannah is still living in the realm of her ancestors which is Singapore and Johor. Not only that , the Pontianak Sultanate also have a uniqe relation with the Sultanate of Johor. When the Sultan first open Pontianak as a state, there was nobody there, its a jungle and most native are the Dayak who live far away inland. At night a lot of Pontianak came and 'kacau" the Sultans and his soldiers, the local people tell the Sultan that the place he choose to make a state is a "sarang Pontianak" or Pontianak lairs. So he call his state Pontianak after he banished all the Pontianak using the holy Quran..

Another ironic part of this story, that isn't mentioned in this video, is that the reason why Hannah's great grand uncle, Sultan Hamid II, the creator of Garuda Pancasila, lived in the Netherland. In 1950, Sultan Hamid II was accused and arrested by Sukarno government for his involvement of subversive conspiration with a Dutch captain, Raymond Westerling. However, he managed to escape then lived in the Netherland. Nevertheless, that accusation never been proven as in the 1950's Indonesia still hasn't had fair legal system.

Being royalties in Malay Sultanate doesn't means you are rich like the European monarch dear hannah...most Malay Sultans especially before the coming of the British and Dutch adopted a Sufis philosophy and remain humble and have a humble abode with humble palaces. They do not have huge mansions and palaces like the European that cost billions of dollars and wasted the states money. Most of their wealth and power are in the form of land, military and manpower. If you read many British and Dutch accounts about many Malay Sultanates most of their dwelling and their regalia's are very humble even though they own thousands acres of land and tons of gold, silvers, tin mines, and money. The Malays Sultans only got more lavish and acting more like European monarch after the British and the Dutch came and introduced them to western hedonism and capitalism. In case of Malaysia , it was the British who encourages the Sultans to built huge bricks palaces adorned with gold and expensive ornaments and furniture or what not. Before that most Malay palaces are very humble. Just look at the oldest wooden palace that still standing today in Malaysia like in Kelantan, its a humble, modest but still regal palace not much bigger than the Pontianak palace. The Malays are not like the Thai and Javanese or Burmese who love to built huge brick palace with huge compound and gold ornaments all over the palace and walls. They used to do that during Malaka Sultanate but they stop doing it after the fall of Malaka.

The Ba'alawi descent becoming Kings in the Malay region is a common thing, because of their influence during the spread of Islam, they were respected and the Malay people had no problem being led by them. Not only from the Pontianak Sultanate, there was the Kubu Sultanate in West Borneo, the Siak Sultanate in Sumatra which switched from the Raja Kecil dynasty to the Ba'alawi, also the King of Perlis who was a descendant of Jamalullail, possibly also the Bendahara Dynasty which ruled Johor Lama and its descendants in Pahang and Terengganu, who were descendants of Bendahara Tun Habib Abdul Majid Padang Saujana. For the Pontianak Sultanate which was founded by Sultan Syarif Abdurrahman Al-Qadrie, his father was Habib Hussayn Al-Qadrie who came from Tarim to the Nusantara or Malay Archipelago, arrived in Batavia and Semarang, then to the Matan Sultanate in Ketapang, West Borneo, was appointed Mufti of the Sultanate, married the noble woman of the Matan Sultanate was named Nyai Tua. Then he was asked to move to the Mempawah Sultanate by King Opu Daeng Menambon (one of the Opu Daeng Five Brothers descended from the Luwu Nobility of Sulawesi, whose descendants also served as Yamtuan Muda Riau Johor, one of the descendants of Opu Daeng Chelak became the Selangor Sultanate Dynasty from Raja Lumu). Habib Hussayn in Mempawah also became Mufti. Opu Daeng Menambon was also married to the daughter of the Sultan of Matan named Putri Kesumba (grand daughter of Panembahan Senggaok Mempawah, because her mother Utin Indrawati was the daughter of Panembahan Senggaok who married the Sultan of Matan, Sultan Muhammad Zainuddin). Opu Daeng Menambon and Putri Kesumba had one daughter named Utin Candramidi who was married to Syarif Abdurrahman Al-Qadrie bin Habib Hussayn Al-Qadrie. Then Syarif Abdurrahman Al-Qadrie moved into the Kapuas River which branches into the Landak River, establishing the Pontianak Sultanate, which is said to have been named after a ghost who often disturbed them while there, so the ghost area was shot with cannons. The inauguration or penabalan of the Sultan was carried out by Raja Haji Fisabilillah Yamtuan Muda Riau Johor, who is also the cousin of Utin Candramidi, wife of Syarif Abdurrahman Al-Qadrie. So, the nobility of the Pontianak Sultanate dynasty was not only due to the Ba'alawi, but was also mixed with the Malay and Bugis nobility. 😊

[@MrKresek]

FYI, the disgusting thing in Indonesia right now is this issue about canceling the lineage of the Prophet Muhammad. There's someone trying to manipulate and confuse history, claiming that the Ba'alawi clan isn't connected to the Prophet's bloodline.

They're even demanding DNA tests, even though using DNA tests to determine the lineage of historical figures is still questionable.🤦

But to be honest, for now I'm more incline that the Baalawi is the one who are making all those low-cheap tricks of rewriting history for the publication of that article on Tempo's magazine, one of the most prominent and prestigious magazine for intellectuals. From there I conclude that they do have more interest and importance from the acts. Second, I'm not talking about their lineage, my topic is about this crime of manipulating history of Indonesia, who done it? I'm not talking about lineage since we are talking in CNA platform, majority might not even care if alKadrie's family is descendant or not, neither do I.

Pemerintahan_Revolusioner_Republik_Indonesia The FACTS: The military operation to crush the PRRI took many victims on the PRRI side. The number of victims of the short PRRI conflict was much greater than the number of victims of the war with the Dutch during the Indonesian National Revolution. [2] In addition, many who were not involved in the PRRI were killed and became victims of violence such as torture, robbery, and rape by Indonesian military. [3] [4] [5] Post-PRRI, the Minang people received a severe psychological blow; they were once at the forefront of the national independence struggle but were now branded as separatist rebels. PRRI marked the end of the Masyumi Party and the Indonesian Socialist Party. Both parties were dissolved by President Soekarno because they were considered to be involved in PRRI. Meanwhile, the influence of the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI) grew stronger in West Sumatra. Many civil servants who supported PRRI were replaced with communists.[6]

@@kunderemp to be precise the river (kapuas) in pontianak used to be inhibited by lots female ghost , since it is still a dense forest at a time thus the people who living near it calling the area pontianak/puntianak ( ponti /punti mean= a tall tree or forest , anak= a child ) , but another version says that pontianak mean " a place of transit/stopover " . the female ghost name actually came from that area , because it used to be lots of them in that forest before/after they build pontianak city , so the people who saw the same female ghost always saying the name "pontianak/kuntilanak" to refer the female ghost that they saw in pontianak.

Another trivia, Al-Kadrie was one of the Yemeni family names who were descended from Prophet Muhammad. Pontianak city itself was named after the ghost: Pontianak. Your ancestor, when founded the city, he and his crew had to fight against pontianak ghost in Kapuas river.

[@Userr-Chen-Chen]

Descendent from Muhammad? 🤣. Until today no one has proven the genealogy of Muhammad AND that he existed at all. No one can find anything written about Muhammad in the 7th century. Why is there no reference to anything called Islam, Muslim, Mecca until 690 AD assuming he died in 632 AD. The latest uncovered fact is that Muhammad was only a given title and not a name at all. 🤣

[@rumahfifi]

​@@shahesfelazi8549its a political reasons Because many indonesian afraid of ghost and suoernatural stuff so they named the location pontianak with a hope they dont occupy the land Similars to tangerang in jakarta when locals said the area of tangerang "tempat jin beranak atau tempat buang anak jin " Meaning locals people afraid to live around that place because the area is mysterious and scary And based on dutch views that the sultans in pontianak actually are not a real sultan but a pirate and hijackers whom make a based a pontianak to occupy the land As that time indonesia just started their independent in 1945 and many javanese try to "mengusir" dutch british and try to occupy pontianak and the javanese suspicious as the pontianak area are rebbelious area since the javanese believe the sultan very close to dutch Try to view from dutch Views from British Viewe from chines Views from javanese And why borneo torn apart into 3 country brunei malaysia and indonesia All started from what indonesia called = penjajahan Anyway many real pontianak indigenuous move already or marriage to sinagapore taiwan and hongkong What you meet in this generation mostly are new comers from others province

My dear sister Hannah al Kaff, the most honourable part of this lineage more so than the Royal Family, is to inherit the blood of the Best of Creation, the Beloved of God, the Master of Both Worlds, the Holy Prophet, Sayyidina Muhammad , upon him and his family peace and blessings. Moreover to be from the bloodline of Sayyidina Ali bin Abi Talib, the best of all women, Sayyidah Fatima and their son, Sayyidinal Hussayn. Through them this lineage reaches you through many illustrious great saints and scholars like Sayyidina Jafar as Sadiq, Ahmad bin Isa and Faqih Al Muqaddam. If we were to go all the way up the lineage, it reaches to the great Prophets like Ismail, his mother Hajar and his father the Friend of God, Ibrahim alayhimusalam and more! What great honour is this. May Allah bless you, your family and ancestors and grant you to inherit the light of this honourable connection، from the Royal Family, to all the Sayyids especially the Awliya and Ulema from amongst them, to the Ahlul Bayt and then to the Prophets, especially the Seal of Prophets, the Light of the Creation, Sayyidina Muhammad ‎ﷺ آمين وصلى الله وسلم وبارك على سيدنا محمد وعلى آله وأصحابه أجمعين

[@TjakWitjak]

wow wow wow How did the descendants of the Prophet Muhammad betray their nation and people? The Prophet Muhammad always put himself to defend the oppressed, but how can someone who is said to be a descendant of the Prophet commit treason against his nation? Then how does it relate to the current issue about the clan that claims to be the descendants of the Prophet, but it turns out that their DNA is not similar but is more similar to Jewish DNA?

In the history of the Indonesian nation, we never knew Sultan Al Qadrie as a national hero, but Hamid Al Qadrie was recorded as a traitor to the nation, where in 1945, when the Indonesian people were struggling to gain independence, Hamid Al Qadrie was actually in the bright beauty of the Dutch government. In 1946, many Indonesian people died in the battle. Hamid Al Qadrie even received the title of Major General. He lived smiling above the suffering and blood of the Indonesian people.

If Potinanak part of British today Pontianak maybe one of the rich malay sultanate and still in power just like malaysia and brunei, but up to Pontianak to join federation, like brunei they dont want to joined, unlike indonesia sukarno force all dutch territory to become indonesian, later many sultan lost power accuse of not loyal to indonesia, that why indonesia not wealthy because all these problem. but malaysia more stable, each state still become a state not downgrade as province nor district. sultan preserve in malaysia but do not have power to rule, some sultan have own military like johor, because johor joined malaysia unlike brunei johor military force only guard johor not whole malaysia. imagine if east sumatra sultanate like deli, serdang, asahan, langkat etc was give ton british, all sultanate work with dutch and british same javanese sltan in jogja, even when mataram divide into to, many royal figth eachother just for become sultan or power. it fall into dutch and british trap, malay state conqured and colonized by 3 powers 2 european like dutch and britsh and Siam who conqured Patani, Santun, Singgora today songkla, i dont induced Ligor or today Nakhon si thammarat because it was vassal of Siam for very long after fall of srivijaya, and never majapahit rule over them except santun-songkhla max majapahit territory. and Ligor do not become muslim but remained buddhist. and later speak thai and thainized, wayang kulit of nakhon si thammarat, keris, and tradition still have many malay element. just like in Thailand and Indonesia, Kerajaan Setul or Santun Rajahnate(divide from Kedah sultanate) abolished by Siam/Thailand in 1924, most of SANTUN Royal regret for site with Siam, only Perlis Rajahnate survived. Perlis cannot used sultan titles it was Kedah territory divide from Kedah, same with Negeri Sembilan(nine district) it ws jOHOR distict territory but given to Minangkabau allies from Pagaruyung west sumatra to figth bugis, cannot used sultan titles, Kedah, Johor, Brunei all these big malay state later become small or divide Johor divide into Pahang and Riau-Lingga, only pulau tioman not become riau-lingga sultanate terriitory only Natuna and Anambas given to riau-lingga. pulau tioman was part of johor just like singapore but later become Pahang territory Johor forever called land sultanate, riau was archipelago sultanate or archipelago johor.

Many locals said the dutch come to pontianak ia to build and make a opportunity for locals citizen They come for trade not for war So thats wjy many locals pontianak support sultan hamid because it gave a real job real work real opportunity while the javanese only come to do " adu domba" with theirs sinister motive As a person who lived in pontianak and in my opinion sultan hamid only care theirs own people and want theirs people to live in stability and prosperous life So he close with dutch because he saw the opportunity to make a locals people life better While javanese saw sultan hamid in sinister way

Haha Budak Singapur datang ke Pontianak juga ya...... Salam dari Kubu Raya. Sultan Hamid II escaped from Mandor Affair because he was in Jakarta (Java Island). At Japanese era, Java and Sumatera (Andalas) are ruled by Rikugun (Imperial Japanese Army). But Kalimantan (Borneo), Sulawesi (Celebes) and East Indonesia are ruled by Kaigun (Imperial Japanese Navy). And you know Rikugun and Kaigun are not friendly team mate during WW II. So this was Sultan Hamid saved from Mandor Affair. It was a paradox that Kaigun is crueled about Mandor Massacre. Because Kaigun is actuallly softer than Rikugun. BTW I elected Sultan at DPD election 2024 for West Kalimantan seat😀😀😀😀
