Ki Wasyid

[2] Ki Mas Jong was the right-hand man of Prabu Pucuk Umun, king of Pajajaran.

[8] Wasyid young grew up in exile because his father often took his family to move places to avoid the pursuit of Dutch troops.

He also once studied to Ki Wakhia, a friend of his father who led the Gudang Batu war in Serang.

[9] After obtaining education at local pesantren, Wasyid then deepen his religious knowledge in Mecca while performing Hajj.

Siti Hajar was married to Ki Alwi and has a son named Syam'un who was an Indonesian Independence fighter figure, founder of Al-Khairiyah Citangkil, and Regent of Serang period 1945-1949.

[12] Wasyid was known as an ulama who preaches from one place to another to rekindle the spirit of jihad and invite people away from the act of shirk in the midst of a society that at that time trust in superstition.

[5] In 1887 before the Cilegon war, in the village of Lebak Kelapa, there was a big tree that was worshiped and considered sacred, able to destroy the disaster and grant the request as long as giving offerings to Jinn.

[15] The factors behind this event have been described by Wasyid: first, two colonial government officials, the patih and prosecutors have forbidden Muslims to worship in the mosque.

At the end of the banquet, 300 guests gathered at the mosque, where the kyai and their disciples swore: first, that they would take part in a war; secondly, that those who break the promise will be regarded as kafir; third, that they will not divulge their plans to outsiders.

[20] On June 15, 1888, several prominent leaders met at Wasyid's house in Beji, where they talked about the date of the start of the attack.

However, under the command of captain A.A. Veen Huyzen, the Dutch perform operations to break the resistance and do chase against Wasyid and his friends.
