The Indonesian media have been flooded with accounts of Obama's childhood
Islamic studies, some describing him as a religious Muslim. Speaking to
the country's Kaltim Post, Tine Hahiyary, who was principal of Obama's
school while he was enrolled there, said she recalls he studied the Quran
in Arabic.
"At that time, I was not Barry's teacher but he is still in my memory"
claimed Tine, who is 80 years old. The Kaltim Post says Obama's teacher,
named Hendri, died. "I remember that he studied 'mengaji (recitation of
the Quran)," Tine said, according to an English translation by Loatze.
Mengaji, or the act of reading the Quran with its correct Arabic
punctuation, is usually taught to more religious pupils and is not known
as a secular study Also, Loatze do***ented the Indonesian daily
Banjarmasin Post caught up with Rony Amir, an Obama classmate and Muslim,
who describe Obama as "previously quite religious in Islam. We previously
often asked him to the prayer room close to the house. If he was wearing a
sarong (waist fabric worn for religious or casual occasions) he looked
funny," Amir said.
