Pak Hamka my teacher

In the midst of reading the life story of Pak Hamka. A book written by him about his life from when he was born till about mid way of his life. Very interesting indeed. Even in his teens, he was already giving talks everywhere. At 17 he ran away to Mekah without the knowledge of his father. I have read many of his other books. The biggest of them all was off course his tafsir Al Azhar. That's where I got my understanding of Islam. Before, it was mainly following what others do. After reading the tafsir and many other books by him, my understanding of the religion increased by 100%.
