Abstract

Tajug Gede Cilodong is the largest mosque in Purwakarta Regency, Tajug Gede Cilodong has its own uniqueness. Because the location where Tajug Gede was founded is in a fairly large prostitution area in Purwakarta Regency. The Tajug Gede Cilodong building is different from the mosques in general in Purwakarta district, because the Tajug Gede Cilodong building is very thick with the values of local Sundanese wisdom. In this study, researchers look for the symbolic meaning contained in the Tajug Gede Cilodong architectural building which is thick with Sundanese values. In addition, the researchers also tried to reveal the message of da'wah as outlined in an architectural building of Tajug Gede Cilodong. Researchers conducted research on the object of the Tajug Gede Cilodong architectural building located in Purwakarta Regency, using Semiotics analysis. This is done to reveal the symbol or meaning of the da'wah message implied in the Tajug Gede Cilodong architectural building. To reveal the da'wah message behind the symbolic meaning in the architectural building of Tajug Gede Cilodong, the researcher uses Roland Barthes' symbolic analysis model which includes denotative, connotative and mythical theories. This study uses a descriptive approach. This kind of paradigm approach is relevant to research on Da'wah Messages in Tajug Gede Cilodong Architectural Buildings. Sources of data used are primary and secondary data, with data collection techniques by documentation, observation, literature study, interviews. The data analysis technique that the researcher uses is based on Roland Barthes' semiotic approach, namely, denotative meaning description, connotative meaning description, myth analysis, interpretation. In order to test the validity of the data, the researchers used extended observations, triangulation. The results of this study indicate that there are symbols that contain meaning in the tajug gede cilodong architectural building such as the roof of the mosque which means "tritangtu dibuana" and faith, Islam, ihsan. The 4 towers mean “single sentence papat” and are symbols of khulafaurrasyidin. The window without glass means that air and light from outside can enter in, the red and white cloth used for prostration and tied to a pole means that if we love Allah we must also love our homeland. Gapura Melati means the identity of Purwakarta, the pointed part in the middle means monotheism. Meanwhile, 9 drums are symbols of Walisongo, who are figures in the spread of Islam in Indonesia.
