Tuanku Imam Bonjol (1772 – November 6, 1864), also known as Muhammad Syahab, Peto Syarif, and Malim Basa, was a hero in the Indonesian struggle against Dutch rule. He was born in the village of Tanjung Bunga in the Pasaman regency of West Sumatra. His father's name was Buya Nudin. He was immersed in Islamic studies as he grew up, studying first from his father and later under various other Muslim theologians.

After founding the state of Bonjol, Syarif became involved in the Adat/Paderi controversy as a Paderi leader. The Paderi movement, which has been compared to the Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaah (Sunni) school of Islam in Saudi Arabia, was an effort to return the Islam of the area to the purity of its roots by removing local distortions like gambling, cockfighting, the use of opium and strong drink, tobacco, and so forth. It also opposed the powerful role of women in the matrilineal Minangkabau culture. The Adat, or traditionalist, position was that local custom that pre-dated the arrival of Islam should also be respected and followed.

Feeling their leadership position threatened, the traditionalists appealed to the Dutch for help in their struggle against the Paderis. At first, the Dutch were not able to win militarily against the Paderis because their resources were stretched thin by the Diponegoro resistance in Java. In 1824, the Dutch signed the Masang Agreement ending hostilities with the state of Bonjol.

Subsequently, however, once the Diponegoro resistance was suppressed, the Dutch attacked the state of Pandai Sikat in a renewed effort to gain control of West Sumatra. Despite valiant fighting by the Indonesians (by this time the traditionalists had realized they didn't want to be ruled by the Dutch either and had joined forces with the Paderis in their resistance), the overwhelming power of the Dutch military eventually prevailed. Syarif was captured in 1832 but escaped after three months to continue the struggle from his tiny fortress in Bonjol.

After three years of siege, the Dutch finally managed to sack Bonjol on August 16, 1837. Through a negotiation ruse, the Dutch again captured Syarif and exiled him, first to Cianjur in West Java, then to Ambon, and later to Manado in Sulawesi. He died on November 6, 1864, at the age of 92 and is buried in Sulawesi. The site of his grave is marked by a Minangkabau (West Sumatran) house.

Conflict with Britain Since tin is found in the Bangka in the mid-18th century, Palembang and its territory became the target of Britain and the Netherlands. To establish a commercial contract, the Europeans intend to master Palembang. Beginning of European colonization is characterized by the placement Loji (trade office). In Palembang, the first Netherland's loji built in Sungai Aur (10 Ulu).
Europeans first encountered the Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II (SMB II) is Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles. Raffles know the exact nature of the Sultan of Palembang. Therefore, Raffles great respect in addition there are concerns as stated in the report to his superior, Lord Minto, dated December 15, 1810:"
"Sultan of Palembang was one of the richest Malay prince and true what is said that the warehouse is filled with dollars and gold that has been dumped by his ancestors. I think this is one subject that is important to deter Daendels exploit the huge source procurement."
Along with the existence of contacts between Britain and Palembang, the same is done Dutch. In this case, through his envoy, Raffles attempted to persuade the SMB II to expel the Dutch from Palembang (Raffles letter dated March 3, 1811).
Wisely, the SMB II Raffles wrote back that essentially said that the Palembang do not want to engage in hostilities between Britain and the Netherlands, and there was no intention to work together with the Dutch. But the British eventually established cooperation-Palembang, Palembang where the parties better off.
On 14 September 1811 scorched earth and genocide occurring events in the River Flow lodges. Dutch accused Britanian  provoking  Palembang to expel the Dutch. By contrast, Britain sinks, even directly accused the SMB II who initially did.
Raffles cornered by events Aur River loji, but still hopes to negotiate with the SMB II and getting compensation to the Pacific as Britain. Raffles expectation is of course rejected SMB II. As a result, Britain sent a fleet under the command of Gillespie with reason condemn SMB II. In a brief battle, Palembang SMB II capitulated and withdrew to the Estuary Rawas, far upstream of the Musi River.
After successfully occupying Palembang, Britain felt the need to raise new puppet ruler. After signing an agreement with the terms of the benefit Britain, dated May 14, 1812 Prince Duke (brother of SMB II) was appointed with the title of sultan Ahmad II or Husin Diauddin Najamuddin.

Meanwhile, Robison was fired and arrested because of the mandate given Raffles inappropriate.
 
Conflict with the Dutch
August 13, 1814 London Convention makes Britain handed back to the Dutch all the colonies across the sea since January 1803. This policy is not fun Raffles of having to surrender to the Dutch Palembang. Handover occurred on August 19, 1816 after a delay of two years, it was after Raffles was replaced by John Fendall.

Its action is successful, SMB II succeeded to the throne back on June 7, 1818. Meanwhile, Husin Diauddin had allied with Britain had been persuaded by Muntinghe to Batavia and ultimately discharged into Cianjur.

It appeared in the estuary area Rawas he and his troops attacked the followers of SMB II that are still loyal. Upon his return to Palembang, he demanded that the Crown Prince handed over to him.

The goal depose and punish SMB II, then raised his nephew (Prince Jayaningrat) as his successor.
SMB II has calculated there will be a counter-attack. Therefore, he prepared a formidable system of fortifications. In some places in the Musi River, before entering Palembang, made fortifications that commanded by the sovereign family. Later, these forts was instrumental in the defense of Palembang.
Battle of the river began on October 21, 1819 by the Dutch with a shot on the orders Wolterbeek. This attack was greeted with cannon shots from the edge of the Musi. The battle lasted just one day, Wolterbeek stop the attack and eventually returned to Batavia on October 30, 1819.
SMB II still take into account and will prepare a counterattack. The first preparation is the restructuring of government. Crown Prince, Prince Queen, was appointed in December 1819 with a bachelor's sultan Ahmed III Najamuddin. SMB II stepped down and hold Susuhunan. Responsible for the forts rotated, but still within the sultan's family.
After going through the cultivation of nobility (His Majesty the Sultan Ahmad Husin diauddin and Najamuddin prabu anom) and the Arabs Palembang through espionage work, and the place where the defense along musi river is known by the Dutch as well as the preparation of a strong army, the Dutch came to Palembang with greater strength . Dated May 16, 1821 Dutch fleet entered the waters of the Musi. The first armed clash occurred on June 11, 1821 until  battle on June 20, 1821. On June 20 of this battle, once again, the Dutch defeat. De Kock did not decide to return to Batavia, but set the attack strategy.
Month of June 1821 to coincide with the holy month of Ramadhan. Friday and Sunday utilized by the two warring parties to worship. De Kock take advantage of this opportunity. He ordered his troops not to attack on Friday in hopes of SMB II also did not attack on Sunday. At dawn Sunday, June 24, when the people of Palembang was eating the meal, the Dutch suddenly attacked Palembang. in front of all ships that rode his brother His Majesty Sultan Ahmad Husin Diauddin and Najamuddin His Majesty the King and Queen Bahmud Anom Badaruddin / SMB 2 was completely wrong, then shot his own brother who was onboard the Dutch and the Sultan of Palembang Darussalam assuming the heart to kill you because property / throne (Badr Darussalam)
This surprise attack certainly paralyze Palembang on Sunday thinking that Dutch people do not attack. After going through a great resistance, dated June 25, 1821 Palembang fell into Dutch hands. Then on July 1, 1821 the flag red, white, and Blue flying on Religious Tourism bastion, then the Dutch East Indies officially colonialism in Palembang.
