The late Imam Hassan. Gambar di pinjam oleh anak beliau Tam, terima kaseh Tam.
Another very important man in a small village like ours is the Imam (of the Village Mesjid). We must also keep records of them.
From memory I remember them.
Imam Yaakub.
Imam Hassan.
After that my memory seems to have faded.
If anyone from the kampong can revive my memory, or just maintain the record, it will help greatly.

my fond memories of Imam Hj Hassan Bin Hj Ahmad aka Ayah Chik Chan, son on Tuan Hj Ahmad Hurairah, the Grand Ulama' of Lipat Kajang, he had served as the Imam of Lipat Kajang (Pahang) community (viz a viz) the mosque congregation for many many years,
ReplyDeletethen i remember Bilal Yassin of Ceruk Sega played locum (acted as Imam) but i'm not sure if this Aki Yassin became official Imam.
Imam Hassan........someone must write his biography,
his daughter, Nurulniah (i call her Yah) was my classmate in primary and a close friend
i could laugh and joke any time with Imam Hassan but always respected him as my Imam
now Hj Ghafar (the ex Penghulu) is the Imam of our village, he has a Deputy Imam i was told
yes we must trace back and put on record all onfo about all the past present and future Imams of Kg Lipat Kajang, these are a relevant chapter/chapter of the village history

ingatan istimewa saya kepada Hj Hassan Bin Hj Ahmad aka Ayah Chik Chan anak kepada Tuan Hj Ahmad Hurairah Ulama' Ulung Kg Lipat Kajang Pahang, Hj Hassan telah berkhidmat sebagai Imam bagi Kg Lipat Kajang selama beberapa tahun, kemudian saya ingat Bilal Yassin dari Ceruk Sega telah mengambilalih sbg Imam secara sementara tapi saya tak pasti samada Aki Yassin telah menjadi Imam secara resmi
Imam Hassan...seseorang mesti menulis sejarah hidup beliau terutama sebagai Imam, peranan dia tanggungjawab dia segala yang dia telah lakukan dan kejayaannya sebagai Imam
anak perempuan Hj Hassan bernama Nurulniah (saya panggil Yah) ialah rakan sekolah rendah saya dan kawan baik.
saya boleh ketawa dan berjenaka dengan Hj Hassan tapi sentiasa hormati nya sebagai Imam
sekarang Hj Ghafar ialah Imam dibantu oleh seorang Imam Muda
I have the fondest memory of Ayah Chik Chan, he as a rubber trader and he as an Imam at our local Mesjid. We had had that mutual respect, I respected him and he me. We had some common ground, Ayah Chu Tajur (late) was my friend and mentor, and Maknum (late) my friend and classmates. Both were his brothers. And Ayah Chik Chan used to do business with my uncle Ayah Chu Derus (late), and they had good business together.
ReplyDeleteYah? I think I knew her, and if it is the right person, I remember her well.
siapa tak kenai Hassan tokai getah juga Imam, dengan adiknya PakItam Awang, tokai kedai runcit
ReplyDeleteAyahChik Chan punya paya (sawah padi) yang luas di Cerok Ara, bila padi masak saya pergi ambil upah menuai dengan dia, dan hari demi hari tahun demi tahun menjadi mesra dengan dia, macam ayah sendiri, tapi "ayah" ini boleh berjenaka dan gelak ketawa dengan dia, kerana dia Hj Hassan amat pandai menyesuaikan diri dengan semua peringkat penduduk, dan sesiapa jua, and knows when to be serious and when to be humorous, mana nak cari seorang 'alim seorang Imam macam dia???
ada seorang anak dia, dipanggil dengan gelaran "tan gambir" siapa nama dia sebenor dah tak ingat, hello tan gambir dimana awok sekarang?
i remember him Imam Hassan telling me, in fact relating to me, all of it, from A to Z, about Yah's marriage ...... (happiness, turbulence, ups and downs, etc)....to that Jawa police guy, named Juri, originated from Johor, and i felt very uneasy having to hear all of it (serba salah), but that was the trust he had in me, i don't know why...but that was AyahChik Chan, VERY UNASSUMING and VERY REAL VERY HUMBLE...last jumpa dia ialah semasa Chu Tajur meninggal dunia di KL (sempat lagi dia berjenaka dengan saya, "moh kite pergi nuai (padi)..." macam mana saya nak menahan ketawa?
Hj Hassan memang ramai anak dia, itu sebab agaknya Tuhan bagi dia kemewahan yang lebih, duniawi dan juga ukhrawi
Yah (Nurulniah), saya minta maaf kerana terpaksa mendengar dan mengetahui cerita tentang awak daripada ayah (abah ke?) awak sendiri, cerita yang amat peribadi buat awak...
secara terbuka disini (biar semua orang kampong tahu) saya pohon kemaafan kerana menyimpan rahsia kehidupan berumahtangga awak...
awak tetap kawan saya...
Yah ni tak silap ialah anak Imam Hasan yang sulong, eldest

with such sweet memories, sometime I wish that more orang Lipat Kajang boleh baca blog ni, boleh share happiness and sadness, boleh berjumpa di 'space' ni macam kita boleh berjumpa bersekemuka.
ReplyDeleteYah the eldest? Bukan kah yang selalu pergi bawak air sebeledi dari Sungei Pahang ke kedai masa nya kecik2 dulu? Kesian saya tenguk.
ReplyDeletedia lah tu tak silap ingatan saya, ngangkut air dari sungai ke kedai/rumah, tolong mok dia, adik ramai keci2 pulok tu, but she became successful in life comparatively.....considering
ReplyDeletei certainly want to get in touch with her agaian, reminisce our yester days, i know one of her brothers lived in frasers hill, now still there? not sure
surely among her children, one or two must be attracted to surf the internet....hope they somehow get transitted here
Bilal Yassin is mentioned. I remember him well, ayah Rahmat (nikah dengan Aziz Yatim). When he 'azan' we could hear him at my grandfather's house di Durian Sangka, nearly 1/2 km (maybe more) away.
ReplyDeleteAnd Bilal Mansor (Abang Mansor we called him, Abang kepada Jantan Kone' dan Hamid, dan Bor dan Esah (Chah) dan.......Sao'me'(?)) Dia pun bang kuat jugak tapi dia kurang dengar.
correct, Aki Yassin or Bilal Yassin Ceruk Sega, dia lama jadi bilal masjid kampong kite, itu sebab saya ingat sangat, dan dia pernah naik mimbar baca khutbah banyak kali juge
ReplyDeleteazan Aki Yassin memang nyarin dan kuat...
Mansor, now i can recall who he was, brother of Jantan Kone' ex army (askar melayu, tak silap, seorang lagi yang jadi askar) and anak Jantan Kone' juga jadi askar, pangkat Kapt ke? (pada masa itu lah, sekarang tak tahu lah, mungkin dah jadi veteran)
Imam Ghafar (Imam sekarang) juga tak kurang hebatnya !!! (better known as Nong ....?)
Imam
ReplyDeleteOne in a million. Difficult to find but there is one out there somewhere.
Humble, unassuming and knowledgeable.
Fit in well with all walks of life another aspect that Aki Chik Chan has that acknowledges Lipat Kajang-ite respect and fondness.
