Silsilah Gus Miftah (Facebook)

YOGYAKARTA - The famous lecturer Gus Miftah is being followed by netizens after he made fun of the ice seller. Netizens who were annoyed with his behavior also considered that the long-haired preacher did not deserve the nickname 'Gus'. In addition, many parties questioned Gus Miftah's lineage.

Previously, Gus Miftah was criticized by netizens for saying 'GOBLOK' to a father who was an ice tea trader. This moment occurred when he was giving a lecture at a supermarket in Magelang, Wednesday (20/11). The harsh or bad words were also followed by laughter from Gus Miftah and a number of kiai on stage.

It was only in early November that the video of his lecture spread on social media and became a hot topic of conversation. Netizens condemn that Gus Miftah should not be rude and demean people who are working. In the midst of many people who say he is inappropriate to be a scholar, let's investigate Gus Miftah's lineage.

When talking about the family tree of Gus Miftah, he claims that he has a blood bond with a large kiai in East Java. Gus Miftah said he was the ninth descendant of Kiai Muhammad Besari from Ponorogo.

"My father Muhammad Murodi belongs to Kiai Muhammad Usman, belongs to Mr. Kiai Muhammad Boniran, belongs to Mr. Kiai Jalal Iman, belongs to Mr. Kiai Karyonawi, has Nyai Madaru's mother, belongs to Mr. Kiai Ilyas, belongs to Mr. Kiai Muhammad Besari. Calculated means I am number 9 from Mbah Muhammad Besari," said Gus Miftah.

According to what Gus Miftah said, Kiai Muhammad Besari has a father named Kiai Anom Besari whose grave is in Caruban. Then Kiai Anom has a father named Abdullah Mursad whose grave is in Kediri. Abdullah Mursad has a father named Prince of Demang II.

"Princess Demang II has a father whose name is Prince Demang I, you have a father named Susuhunan Wirasmoro, you have a father whose name is Panembahan Praworo, you have a father whose name is Sultan Trenggono, you have a father whose name is Raden Fatah, you have a father whose name is Prabu Brawijaya. If ordered, Miftah has 18 descendants from Prabu Brawijaya," he said again.

Gus Miftah's claim was acknowledged or confirmed by Mbah Tjuk, who is one of the descendants of Kiai Muhammad Besari. According to Mbah Tjuk, the father of Gus Miftah, named Kiai Muroddi, came from Fortan Mojorejo, Tegalsari and his mother from Sukorejo.

The figure of Gus Miftah is popular because he is a preacher with the characteristics of conveying lectures that are peppered with jokes. Not only ordinary jokes, jokes made by the famous lecturer often use harsh or saru dictions.

That's why Gus Miftah's name is quite striking among lecturers because he has a different character from other religious leaders who tend to be polite and gentle. Unfortunately, the habit of joking in his lecture sessions is often excessive or critical to being disrespectful or offending other people's feelings.

The owner's real name Miftah Maulana Habiburrahman lives in Jogja and takes care of the Ora Aji Islamic boarding school. His name is also increasingly known by many after becoming a teacher from Deddy Corbuzier in terms of Islam. He managed to demand that the famous podcaster become a convert.

Actually, this is not the first time in a case of making fun of a tea ice seller, he has drawn controversy. Gus Miftah has also made a scene with his preaching activities carried out in unusual places. He often gives lectures in front of people at nightclubs and localization places.

Such is the review of Gus Miftah's tree of famous lecturers whose names are being highlighted by the public due to his abusive or disgraceful actions. Shortly after his criticism rolled over, Gus Miftah came to the ice tea seller in Magelang and apologized. Also read the DPR asking Gus Miftah to introspect himself after making fun of ice tea traders.
