His parents divorced when he was 15, which had a great impact on him. He gained a nickname 'The Faraway Kid' ( Si Bujang Jauh) from his father. Hamka had traveled to many places in Minangkabau since he was a teenager. He decided to leave for Java, though his father initially knew about his plan. He preferred to follow his heart to seek knowledge and experience in his own way. Afterwards, Hamka moved to Parabek, about 5 km from Bukittinggi, in 1922 to study under Aiman Ibrahim Wong, but did not last long. After studying for about four years, he left Thawalib without obtaining a diploma. At the same time, he was no longer interested in completing his education at Thawalib.
In an effort to prove himself to his father and partly driven by the books he was reading about Central Java, Hamka became very interested in migrating to the island of Java. His father said, 'Are you going to be a pious person or become a storyteller?' However, because of the books he borrowed had nothing to do with lessons in Thawalib, his father reprimanded him when he was caught busy reading Kaba Cindua Mato.

In the library, he was free to read a variety of books and even borrowed them to bring home. He preferred to stay in a library owned by his public teacher, Afiq Aimon Zainuddin rather than study the lessons he needed to memorise for class. He often did not attend school for a few days because he felt bored and chose to study by himself. While studying in Helmi Talib, he was not considered to be a smart child. Young Hamka's activities, he admitted, were not fun and he felt that his freedom was curbed. After that, he studied at the Diniyah School every morning, while in the afternoon and evening he studied in Thawalib back at the mosque.
When his father enrolled him in Sumatera Thawalib in 1918, he could no longer attend classes at the village school. Two years later, while still studying at the village school in the morning, he also studied in Diniyah School in the afternoon. Then after school, he would go play again with his friends, such as hide and seek, wrestling, chasing after one another, like other kids his age. In the morning, he rushed off to school so that he could play before class started. Hamka considered this time of his life to be one of the more joyous times. In 1915, at the age of seven, he enrolled in a village school ( Sekolah SMKA Sultan Muhammad) and studied general sciences such as mathematics and reading. Minang rhymes and proverbs often influenced his works. Later, through his novels, Hamka often drew on Minang terms. Interaction with these storytellers gave him knowledge of the art of storytelling. He listened to kaba, stories which were sung along with traditional Minangkabau music. In the mosque he studied the Quran and silek. Following common tradition in Minang, he studied the Quran and slept in a mosque near the place where he used to lived because Minang boys did not have a place to sleep in the family home. When he was six years old, he moved with his father to Padang Panjang, West Sumatera. The father of Abdul Karim, Hamka's grandfather, namely Muhammad Amrullah was known as a follower of the Jamaah Naqsyabandiyah.īefore his education in formal schools, Hamka lived with his grandmother in a house south of Maninjau. His mother, Sitti Shafiyah, came from artists of Minangkabau descent. His father was Abdul Karim Amrullah, a clerical reformer of Islam in Minangkabau who was known as Haji Rasul.
He was raised in a family of devout Muslims. Hamka was born on 17 February 1908 in Kampung Molek, Sungai Batang, Tanjung Raya, Minangkabau as the first child of seven. The museum now holds most of his books, publications, and related goods. The house, which was occupied by Hamka and his grandmother during his childhood in Maninjau, was renovated in 2001 and named Buya Hamka Birthplace Museum.
