**Brief Biography of Tgk Hasyem**
M. Hasyem, also known as Tgk Hasyem, was a resident of Gampong Ladong, Mesjid Raya District, Aceh Besar, who worked as a Quran teacher in the area.
He was born in Lam Sie, Blang Bintang District, Aceh Besar, in 1938. While living in Lam Sie, he served as the village head (keuchik) for 4.5 years, from 1970 to 1974.
In 1970, Tgk Hasyem and his wife, Nyak Lambot, moved to Ladong and officially became local residents. It was there that he and his small family settled.
In his daily life, Tgk Hasyem was known as a friendly person and actively participated in various activities. He was also appointed as the Teungku Imeum of the Masjid Jami' Ladong village mosque.
Tgk Hasyem was actively involved in the mosque and other activities. Every Monday afternoon, he used to hold religious study sessions for parents and villagers at the village hall.
Eventually, he built an Islamic study center right in front of his modest stilt house and began teaching Quran lessons regularly to the village residents, especially children and teenagers.
In 2017, he suffered a stroke, which hindered his activities as a Quran teacher. On one hand, he needed to educate his students, while on the other, he had to undergo medical treatment.
Over time, Tgk Hasyem decided to donate his Islamic study center to one of the dayahs (Islamic boarding schools) in Gampong Blang Krueng, Baitussalam District, Aceh Besar.
This was done so that the Islamic study center could be beneficial for many people seeking knowledge, as well as serve as a charitable endowment in the hereafter.
On June 24, 2024, Tgk Hasyem passed away. His departure left the surrounding residents feeling a deep loss for a figure who had been so valuable to the community.
