PADANG - West Sumatra Governor Mahyeldi recalled the figure of Buya Syafii Maarif as the bottom of knowledge at the edge of knowledge, a place to ask questions and seek advice for regional progress.
"He is a figure who always pays attention to West Sumatra. It is not difficult to give advice for regional progress," he said in Padang, Friday, May 27.
Since he was still serving as Mayor of Padang, Mahyeldi has often asked for advice from the figure who was born in Sumpur Kudus, Sijunjung Regency, West Sumatra, on May 31, 1935. The good relationship continued until Mahyeldi was elected Governor of West Sumatra for the period 2021-2024. According to him, Buya Syafii was never stingy in providing input for the good of West Sumatra. Not only for his homeland, Buya Syafii also gave many best thoughts for the good of the Indonesian nation. As a scholar and scholar, Buya Syafii's voice was also heard by the palace and even President Joko Widodo.
"On behalf of myself, family, community and the West Sumatra Provincial Government, I express my deepest condolences for the passing of Buya Syafii. He is the proud son of Minangkabau who tirelessly gives his best thoughts to the Indonesian nation. His thoughts are extraordinary and inspire many people," he said quoted by Antara.
Buya Syafii Maarif died on Friday (27/5) at 10.15 WIB at PKU Muhammadiyah Gamping Hospital, Yogyakarta. Previously, Buya Syafii had been treated for complaining of shortness of breath.
During his lifetime, Buya Syafii served as Chairman of the Muhammadiyah Central Executive, President of the World Conference on Religion for Peace, and founder of the Maarif Institute.
