February 11, 1899, coinciding in the month of Ramadan, Teuku Umar fell down hit by Dutch gold bullet in Suak Ujong Kalak, Meulaboh, Aceh.
when the Aceh warriors were eating sahur.
teuku Umar fell instantly and shaheed at a very young age, which is 45 years old.
Teuku Umar and his troops came from Lhok Bubon aiming to kill General Van Heuzt who was in Meulaboh.
The Dutch general also had the same objective, namely to kill Teuku Umar.
before leaving, Teuku Umar uttered a sentence that encouraged his troops "we will drink coffee this morning, or we will die shaheed".
But not until dimeulaboh, destiny of Allah Teuku Umar shaheed.
fall to earth,
in the forest,
behind the tree,
behind the leaves,
behind the bush,
behind the clouds.....
oooooo Teuku Umar.
we really miss you.
