This paper will explore the other side of the dimension of social Sufism Kiai Sahal. He was born into a family full of Sufism doctrine. He is one of the descendants of Sheikh Ahmad Mutamakkin, guardian of Allah who follows the teachings of the Tariqah. Sufism which is carried and practiced by Kiai Sahal is tasawuf which is oriented towards building society (social), not only individual and theocentric oriented. That is why Sufism Kiai Sahal is called social tasawuf. This research is based on literature study enriched with personal experience, observation and interviews with people who often interact with Kiai Sahal. This research is descriptive-analytical in nature to find the real thoughts and actions of Sufism-based Kiai Sahal.
