Abstract


This study explores the role of al-Khalwah in the development of al-Qalb from the perspective of Ibnu ‘Ajibah , as discussed in his work, Iqaz al-Himam fi Syarh al-Hikam. Al-Khalwah is defined as a practice of self-isolation with the primary goal of focusing the consciousness of al-Qalb solely on Allah SWT through remembrance (zikir) and contemplation (tafakkur). The research is qualitative in nature and reveals Ibnu ‘Ajibah 's holistic view of the positive impact of al-Khalwah on the development of the spiritual dimension of al-Qalb. The study's findings highlight ten positive impacts of the practice of al-Khalwah, indicating its effectiveness in enriching the development of al-Qalb for Muslim individuals. This research provides profound insights into the concept of al-Qalb development according to Ibnu ‘Ajibah , emphasizing the value and relevance of al-Khalwah in achieving these objectives.
