Abstract

The study examines the symbolic meaning of the letter Alif and the esoterism teaching in it, as reflected in Sosrokartono’s calligraphy and Insan al-Kamil’s concept of Al-Jilli.  The purpose of this study is to present the philosophical similarities and differences between the Middle Eastern Sufis and the Indonesian Sufis, which are found in different mediums. The study used library research and hermeneutical approach. The data were analysed using text interpretation from Jorge Garcia and esoteric symbolism from Ferdinand de Saussure. The findings of this study include: first, the letter Alif in the calligraphy holds the meaning of philosophical sufism that aligns with the concept of Insan Al-Kamil by Abdul Karim Al-Jilli. Second, the letter Alif for both Sosrokartono and Al-Jilli holds three dimensional meanings; oneness, strength, and wisdom. This research enriches the repertoire of philosophical Sufism by presenting the meaning of material objects in the form of calligraphy art.

Abstract

Purpose: This study examines how pilgrimage at Goa Selarong is experienced as a process of Islamic education through pilgrims' religious meaning-making and identifies the experiential structure connecting sacred place, historical memory, reflection, and learning.Design/methodology/approach: A transcendental phenomenological design involved ten participants with direct experience of visiting the site. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation and analyzed through epoche, horizontalization, meaning units, thematic clustering, textual and structural descriptions, and synthesis of the shared essence.Findings: Three themes indicate that participants experienced the site as a setting for acquiring religious understanding, perceived its quiet atmosphere as conducive to reflection, and interpreted the historical memory of Prince Diponegoro as a source of ibrah (moral learning). The shared experiential structure comprises perceived sacred space, historical memory, tafakkur (contemplation) and ibrah, and religious meaning-making expressed as religious knowledge and consciousness. These components inform a tentative Experiential Islamic Learning through Pilgrimage framework.Research Implications: The study extends Islamic education research to living religious and historical practices beyond formal institutions and suggests that pilgrimage-site interpretation may support reflective learning. Because the evidence comes from ten participants at one site and does not measure lasting character change, the framework is interpretive rather than causal. Further multi-site and longitudinal research is needed to examine its transferability and educational effects.
