Tradisi ziarah makam ulama merupakan realitas religius yang hidup dalam
kehidupan santri. Praktik ini tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai ritual simbolik, tetapi
juga sebagai pengalaman spiritual yang membentuk identitas keagamaan dan
memperdalam hubungan batin dengan Tuhan. Ziarah diharapkan tidak berhenti
pada aspek formalitas semata, melainkan menjadi sarana transformasi diri yang
mendorong peningkatan kualitas ibadah dan pembentukan kepribadian santri yang
religius. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji secara lebih mendalam dinamika
religiositas santri yang melakukan ziarah ke Makam KH Ahmad Siradj, Solo.
Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif fenomenologi. Informan
berjumlah tiga orang santri yang secara periodik melakukan ziarah ke makam
tersebut. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui observasi, dokumentasi, dan
wawancara mendalam, dengan keabsahan data diuji melalui triangulasi metode.
Analisis data menggunakan model Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA)
dari Smith (2009), meliputi tahapan membaca transkrip secara berulang, pencatatan
awal, pengembangan tema, pencarian hubungan antartema, dan deskripsi tematik.
Proses pengkodean data dilakukan dengan bantuan perangkat lunak Atlas.ti.
Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dinamika religiositas santri peziarah di
Makam KH Ahmad Siradj merupakan proses spiritual yang mendalam dan
transformatif, yang tercermin dalam lima dimensi religiositas yaitu keyakinan,
praktik, pengalaman, pengetahuan, dan konsekuensi. Ziarah tidak hanya
dipraktikkan sebagai aktivitas ritual (dimensi praktik), tetapi juga memperkuat
keimanan terhadap ajaran Islam seperti keberkahan, tawasul, dan keteladanan
ulama (dimensi keyakinan). Pengalaman emosional selama ziarah menghadirkan
ketenangan, kekhusyukan, dan kedekatan batin dengan Tuhan (dimensi
pengalaman), yang selanjutnya mendorong pembentukan perilaku religius seperti
rendah hati, sabar, dan konsisten dalam ibadah (dimensi konsekuensial). Sementara
itu, keterhubungan dengan sanad keilmuan dan warisan spiritual para ulama
memperkaya wawasan keagamaan santri (dimensi pengetahuan). Dengan
demikian, religiositas santri tidak hanya terbentuk melalui pengalaman personal,
tetapi juga dipengaruhi hubungan batin dengan tokoh yang diziarahi. Ziarah
menjadi ruang spiritual yang mengintegrasikan seluruh dimensi religiositas secara
utuh, sehingga berfungsi sebagai sarana penguatan iman dan pewarisan nilai-nilai
keagamaan yang hidup dalam keseharian santri.

ABSTRACT
Muhammad Nailul Muna. 211141099. Dynamics of Religiosity of Santri Pilgrims
at the Tomb of KH Ahmad Siradj Solo. Islamic Psychology Study Program.
Department of Psychology and Psychotherapy, Faculty of Ushuluddin and
Dakwah. Raden Mas Said State Islamic University of Surakarta. Year 2025.
The tradition of pilgrimage to the tombs of ulama is a religious reality that lives in
the lives of students. This practice not only functions as a symbolic ritual, but also
as a spiritual experience that forms religious identity and deepens the inner
relationship with God. Pilgrimage is expected not to stop at the formality aspect
alone, but rather becomes a means of self-transformation that encourages an
increase in the quality of worship and the formation of the personality of religious
students. This study aims to examine in more depth the dynamics of religiosity of
students who make pilgrimages to the Tomb of KH Ahmad Siradj, Solo.
This research uses a qualitative phenomenological approach. The informants are
three students who periodically make pilgrimages to the tomb. Data collection
techniques are carried out through observation, documentation, and in-depth
interviews, with the validity of the data tested through method triangulation. Data
analysis uses the Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) model from
Smith (2009), including the stages of reading transcripts repeatedly, initial
recording, developing themes, searching for relationships between themes, and
thematic descriptions. The data coding process is carried out with the help of
Atlas.ti software.
The results of the study indicate that the dynamics of religiosity of pilgrim students
at the Tomb of KH Ahmad Siradj is a profound and transformative spiritual
process, which is reflected in five dimensions of religiosity, namely belief, practice,
experience, knowledge, and consequences. Pilgrimage is not only practiced as a
ritual activity (practice dimension), but also strengthens faith in Islamic teachings
such as blessings, tawasul, and the exemplary behavior of scholars (belief
dimension). The emotional experience during the pilgrimage brings calm,
solemnity, and inner closeness to God (experience dimension), which then
encourages the formation of religious behavior such as humility, patience, and
consistency in worship (consequential dimension). Meanwhile, the connection with
the sanad of knowledge and the spiritual heritage of scholars enriches the religious
insight of students (knowledge dimension). Thus, the religiosity of students is not
only formed through personal experience, but is also influenced by the inner
relationship with the figures being visited. Pilgrimage becomes a spiritual space
that integrates all dimensions of religiosity as a whole, so that it functions as a
means of strengthening faith and inheriting religious values that live in the daily
lives of students.
