Tuanku Imam Bonjol was borned in Bonjol, Pasaman,Indonesia in 1772

He thendied in Manado, Sulawesi in November 6th 1864, in the age of 92 years old and was buried in Khusus Lotak, Minahasa

Tuanku Imam Bonjol is not from Minahasa, He was from West Sumatera. “Tuanku Imam Bonjol” is a little given to religious teachers in Sumatra. The real name of Imam Bonjol is Peto Syarif Ibnu Pandito Bayanuddin.

He is a well known religious leader in islamic teachings in Sumatera, who used to be against gambling, chicken fight, misuses of dadah, alcoholic drinks, and tobacco, but then moved on to be against the occupancy of the Dutch who had the motto Gold, Glory, Gospel which then caused the Padri war (1821-1837).

He first started to learn religion from his father, Buya Nudin. Then he studied from a few teachers like Tuanku Nan Renceh. Imam Bonjol is a leader from the land of Bonjol.

The clash between the traditional society and the Padri society, which means the religious society, has made Imam Bonjol take part in it. The Padri society tried to clean the Islamic teachings that were thought to be way too far from its roots, and return it to the pure Islamic path.

The traditional society, who was afraid that its existence being wiped out by the religious society, got help from the Dutch army. However, the movement of Imam Bonjol’s troops endangered the Dutch, which forced them to sign a peace treaty with Imam Bonjol in 1824. The treaty was named “Masang Treaty”. Then the Dutch broke the treaty by attacking the land of Pandai Sikat.

The next battles had little influence because at the time, the Dutch had to collect strength for the Diponegoro war. After the Diponegoro War, the Dutch used all their troops to take over West Sumatera.

Imam Bonjol and his troops were not going to surrender, and with all their might defended themselves. However, with the great strength of the Dutch troops, Imam Bonjol’s land was taken over one by one. After three months, Bonjol was fought and taken back. This happened in 1832.

The Dutch used their great troop again. General Governor Van den Bosch lead the attack to Bonjol, but he failed. He then offered a deal called the Palakat Panjang deal, but Imam Bonjol was suspicious about Van den Bosch’s will.

For a few periods after that, Tuanku Imam Bonjol had a hard time, but he still insisted to reject peace. The Dutch has changed its general to conquer Bonjol, the little land with a fortress made of clay. After three years of attacks, finally the Dutch occupied Bonjol on August 16th 1837

In 1837, the village of Imam Bonjol Berjaya was taken over by the dutch, and Imam Bonjol surrendered. He was then secluded to a lot of places, including Minahasa as the last place. He was titled National Hero.

A monument with Sumatera characteristics covered Imam Bonjol’s grave. A carving of Imam Bonjol in the Padri War was carved on one of the sides of the monument. Next to the monument lies the home of Imam Bonjol where he lived through out the time of his seclusion.
