Gus Baha’s wisdom no longer requires a question mark. On the contrary, the indication is that even though Gus Baha belongs to or comes from students without rank, his position is very urgent, namely as part of the ranks of the national interpretation council.
Besides that, Prof. Quraisy Syihab also said that, apart from his position as a commentator, Gus Baha also had a position as a faqih commentator. With that greatness, Gus Baha could decipher the interpretation of the Qur’an verses containing the law. Therefore, the doctors and experts of the Qur’an acknowledge his greatness. This also makes me think of Gus Baha as “the lice of the Al-Qur’an Archipelago”.
To date, Gus Baha has managed to write several books. Among his works are Hafadzana li Hadzal Mushaf li Bahauddin Nur Salim and the UII version of the book of interpretation of the Qur’an (UII stands for Universitas Islam Indonesia). In this work, Gus Baha wants to put the characteristics of Indonesian taste into the interpretation without changing the authentic meaning of the Qur’an itself.
Finally, the thing that impressed me with Gus Baha was how he filled out the study. Gus Baha always carries a yellow book (according to the theme to be discussed) when filling out studies. Possibly, this was done for two reasons; first, as a definite reference and as a measuring tool for arguments and discussions being studied. Second, connecting the sanad to the teachers as well as the author of the book.
Last but not least, I like his dressing and crouching style. Wassalam…
