SETING PERILAKU DAN TERITORIALITAS RUANG SEBAGAI PERWUJUDAN ADAB DI MASJID GADING PESANTREN KOTA MALANG
Abstract
This study concerns behavior setting and territoriality in Masjid Gading Pesantren as a part of the broader research on community based mosques and social interaction within them. The purpose is to identify some unique behavior patterns of the users of Masjid Gading Pesantren from the perspective of behavioral based research in architecture. The methods employed in this research are place-centered mapping, architectural documenting, and informal interview. The finding shows some specific behavioral pattern of the mosque’s users derived from the courtesy toward the mosque and the leader of the mosque as well as the pesantren. The behaviors form pattern as they become the tradition or local custom deriving into unique courtesy. Furthermore, this behavioral pattern also shapes the specific territories in the mosque, namely mihrab as a primary territory ‘owned’ by the kyai and legitimated by the santris. Such unique behavioral pattern belongs to local value which is largely accepted in Islam as long as it does not contradict with syariah.
