Life

He was the son of Tuanku Panglima Pasutan, the fourth ruler of Deli, now part of Deli Serdang Regency in North Sumatra, Indonesia. [2]

During Gandar Wahid's reign, the position of the four Karo tribal leaders (Malay: datuk empat suku, Karo: raja urung) became more established as sultan's representatives to the people. [3] Continuing the previous leadership system, he maintained the implementation of the Islamic legal code ( kanun ) in his administration. [3] Although part of the Deli territory had already seceded to form the Sultanate of Serdang, [4] he endeavored to improve the welfare of the people remaining in his domain and maintained good social relations with them. [3] Also during his reign, the Zapin Labuhan dance was developed, reflecting the Deli Malay cultural growth of his period. [5]

Gandar Wahid's reign was succeeded by his third son, Amaluddin Mangendar Alam. [1] His tomb is located in the courtyard of the Al-Osmani Grand Mosque in Medan. [6]
