Makam (Tomb of) Sheikh Fadhil Banten

Bersambung dari artikel Masjid jamek (Main mosque of) Lenga.
Continued from the article Masjid jamek (Main mosque of) Lenga.


Di hadapan Masjid jamek Lenga terdapat makam yang terserlah ini.

In front of the main mosque of Lenga lies this tomb which stands out.



Tertulis nama pemiliknya Haji Fadhil dari Banten, lebih dikenali sebagai Sheikh atau Kiyai Fadhil Banten, lahir 1870 Masihi dan meninggal dunia 1950.
Written is the name of the owner Haji Fadhil from Banten, also known as Sheikh or Kiyai (both are titles for religious masters) Fadhil Banten, born 1870 AD and passed away 1950.


Ditulis juga nama Sultan Ibrahim, pemerintah negeri Johor (1895-1959) kerana mendirikan makam ini. Untuk makluman baginda pernah berguru dengan Sheikh Fadhil Banten. Mungkin sebab itu juga Masjid jamek Lenga dibina agak cantik walaupun Lenga cuma sebuah pekan yang sangat kecil?
Also written is the name Sultan Ibrahim, ruler of the state of Johor (1895-1959) for building this tomb. For information his majesty used to study under Sheikh Fadhil Banten. Maybe that is why the main mosque of Lenga is rather beautifully built although Lenga is a town which is very small?
