Purwokerto merupakan salah satu daerah di Jawa Tengah yang memiliki keunikan dalam dialek bahasa sehari-hari. Walaupun masih dalam wilayah Jawa, namun dialek percakapan sehari-hari justru berbeda dengan daerah yang dianggap sebagai pusat bahasa Jawa, seperti Solo atau Yogyakarta. Bila bahasa Jawa di Solo atau Yogyakarta disuarakan dengan dialek yang terkesan lembut dan halus, maka berbanding terbalik dengan dialek masyaarkat Purwokerto yang terlihat sangat tebal, seakan kasar dan jauh dari kesan halus atau lembut. DIalek inilah yang sering disebut “ngapak” bagi masyarakat Purwokerto dan sekitarnya. Di samping bahasa yang sangat unik, Purwokerto juga memiliki banyak tradisi-tradisi lokal yang tetap bertahan hingga saat ini.

This research explores the mystical dimension in the da'wah (Islamic missionary) strategy of Wali Songo, a group of prominent Islamic figures in the history of Islamization in Java. The study investigates how Sufi elements and mysticism were integrated into cultural expressions to support the dissemination of Islamic teachings. The research was motivated by the need to understand the success of Wali Songo's inclusive approach, especially in engaging local belief systems and cultural traditions. This study employed a qualitative approach using descriptive-analytical methods. Data were collected from classical texts, folklore, and previous research on Wali Songo. The findings show that Wali Songo's da'wah extensively adopted Sufi practices such as dhikr, wirid, and the use of spiritual symbols. They reinterpreted local cultural expressions—like wayang performances, gamelan, and traditional ceremonies—as Islamic mediums. The cultural accommodation strategy, especially by figures such as Sunan Kalijaga, reveals a sophisticated understanding of local wisdom and the effective contextualization of Islamic teachings.

Penelitian ini mengkaji secara kritis hubungan antara ma'rifat al-nafs (pengetahuan tentang diri) dan ma'rifat Allah (pengetahuan tentang Tuhan) dalam pemikiran Hasan Zadeh Amuli, seorang pemikir Iran kontemporer yang memadukan tradisi filsafat Islam, irfan, dan tafsir Al-Qur'an. Berdasarkan hadis “man 'arafa nafsahu faqad 'arafa rabbahu,” Amuli tidak hanya menjadikannya sebagai landasan spiritual, tetapi juga sebagai landasan ontologis yang menghubungkan struktur eksistensi manusia dengan manifestasi Ilahi. Melalui pendekatan hikmah ilahiyyah dan irfan teoritis, ia menjelaskan bahwa hakikat diri manusia merupakan cerminan Tuhan; dengan demikian, jalan menuju ma'rifatullah bukanlah melalui penyangkalan dunia, tetapi melalui penyaksian kedalaman eksistensi diri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menelusuri argumen filosofis dan irfani yang digunakan oleh Amuli, khususnya konsep Insan kamil. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif-hermeneutik dan analisis tekstual karya-karya Amuli, temuan penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa ma'rifat al-nafs merupakan jalan epistemologis dan ontologis menuju Tuhan, sekaligus membuka cakrawala pemahaman baru dalam kajian irfan teoritis dan spiritualitas Islam kontemporer.
