TRIO'S HAJJ IN 1896 AND MINANGKABAU GRAND HOUSE DESIGN 1897
TRIO'S HAJJ IN 1896 AND MINANGKABAU GRAND HOUSE DESIGN 1897
From my brother (arwah Abang Mohd Sharif bin Abdul Rashid):
Tok Haji Mohd Sharif, Tok Haji Mohd Noordin and Tuan Guru Haji Khalil went to Makkah to perform the Hajj together and they returned late in 1896, after which the trio decided to each build a similar and typical style of Malay Minangkabau house, ie in 1987 or thereafter.
================================
MINANGKABAU HOUSE DESIGN 1897
================================
Haji Mohd Sharif made Rumah 262-T Banda Hilir. Haji Mohd Noordin made Rumah 302 Banda Hilir. Tuan Guru Haji Khalil made his house at Kg Hulu, but it was demolished as it was dilapidated. It should be the same design as the other 2 houses (262 was demolished circa 2007).
From Abang Sharif:Tok Moyang Haji Mohd Sharif built his big Minangkabau house in Banda Hilir at 262-T Banda Hilir (the house I lived in after I was born).
Tuan Guru Haji Khalil was a friend of Haji Mohd Sharif bin Ismail (Walid's father, Bapak's grandfather). Tuan Guru Haji Khalil, Haji Mohd Sharif and Haji Noordin made the same house like Rumah 262 Banda Hilir.
Tok Moyang Haji Mohd Noordin built his big Minangkabau house at 302 Ujong Pasir. The house at Ujong Pasir was later dismantled and moved to Duyong. Mahadhir Mohamad (cicit Hj Noordin has details).
Bapak said Tok Moyang Haji Mohd Noordin built his house at Ujong Pasir. It was a big black house.
=====================
DAUGHTER'S MARRIAGE
=====================
HABHAL visited Banda Hilir in 1963/64 when we lived at 262-T Banda Hilir, before I went to school in Alor Star, Kedah in 1965. He wore a white suit, tie, red fez and white pointed shoes. He was tall and of fair complexion like a Turkish man. He came alone without Nenek Amnah. He came inside Mak Sarah's house where we (all my cousins and I) were seated in the living-room. I saw him bend low to salam people who had gathered in the house. He was very gracious.
Che Mahani was also HABHAL's relative. They married in 1970 as HABHAL's second wife. They have no children. She was probably born circa 1930 (same age as my parents).
Haji Khalil's daughter is Che Mahani bt Haji Khalil. Her marriage to HABHAL appeared in the newspaper on 12 April 1970.
HABHAL married Che Mahani bt Haji Khalil as his second wife, after his first wife Nenek Amnah passed away in Singapore in the late 1960s. She later became Hjh Mahani.

Majid Sate, Kg Baru
Majid Sate berasal dari Alor Gajah, Melaka. Mula meniaga sate lewat 40-an dengan membawa kandar dari Melaka hingga ke Port Dickson. Lepas itu beliau berhijrah ke Kampung Baru, Kuala Lumpur. Di situlah dia melebarkan sayapnya.
Majis Sate cukup famous di Kuala Lumpur. Tanya sahaja mereka yang pernah menikmati sate yang dihasilkan oleh Majid Sate di Campbell Road dulu (sekarang Wilayah complex). Baik yang Cina, Melayu, India dan lain2. Semua akan kata, sate Majid tiada tandingannya dengan sate yang dihasilkan peniaga lain.
Tetapi ramai juga tidak tahu bahawa arwah Majid juga antara usahawan Melayu pertama di Malaysia (Malaya ketika itu), yang menghantar anaknya belajar ke luar negara dengan perbelanjaan sendiri.
Kjee ingat lagi arwah Bonda bercerita, datuk begitu kecewa apabila memohon biasiswa persekutuan untuk menghantar anak sulongnya Mohd Salleh belajar di London. Permohonannya telah ditolak kerana kononnya mana mungkin anak seorang penjual sate boleh berjaya belajar di luar negara!
Dek kerana kecewa dengan penghinaan yang dilemparkan, datuk pun mengeluarkan belanja sendiri untuk menghantar anaknya belajar Mine Engineering di United Kingdom. Pak Long kembali beberapa tahun kemduian dengan segulung ijazah dalam bidang Engineering!
Jawatan terakhir arwah Pak Long Kjee, Datuk Mohd Salleh Majid ialah sebagai Chief Inspector of Mines Malaysia! Kini beliau sudahpun arwah.
Atuk pernah beritahu Kjee, untuk berjaya sebagai usahawan dalam negara yang mempunyai masyarakat majmuk, seseorang itu kena berkawan baik dengan semua orang tak kira bangsa mahupun keturunan. Arwah boleh bertutur dalam pelbagai bahasa tempatan. Seingat Kjee dia turut boleh bertutur beberapa dialek Cina
Dan kalau dia pergi ke pasar Chow Kit, tak heranlah kalau sekejap dia berbahasa Hokkien, sekejap Kantonis, sekejap cakap India dengan penjual kacang putih dan sekejap lagi vakap bahasa Benggali dengan penjual roti berbangsa Sikh.
Walaupun cita2nya untuk membuka restoran di London tidak kesampaian, namun dia hanya hidup untuk melihat Restoran Majid Satay House di Jalan Ipoh, Kuala Lumpur lewat 60-an dulu.
Setelah pemergiannya, anak2nya Harris dan Rahman (kini keduanya2 arwah) dan anak bongsunya Norhayati, telah membuka rangkaian restoran Sate Anika, bermula di Bukit Bintang Plaza. Kini, rangkaian Restoran Sate Anika sudah tidak wujud lagi.
