The results and discussion of this research include the biography of A.D. Pirous, the theory of iconoclasm of Nurcholish Madjid, and the analysis of iconoclasm in A.D. Pirous's calligraphy paintings. This study concludes that A.D. Pirous is an Acehnese Muslim artist who developed calligraphy in Indonesia. By establishing his school, Pirous calligraphy created a new style in Islamic art in Indonesia. According to Nurcholish Madjid, Islam is a religion that still applies the concept of iconoclasm in its teachings, including those related to works of art such as calligraphy. The analysis of Nurcholish Madjid's iconoclasm on A.D.
