Abstract

Abstract:
Life’s problems cannot always be solved only with a rational approach. Sometimes there are some problems the client perceives as confusing, unrelieved illness, loss of valuables, and spiritual disturbances. This situation encourages them to go to the Ma’rifa in the hope of getting help. It is why clients who come to the Ma’rifa at the Tasikmalaya Mubarok Foundation do. The purpose of this study is to identify the steps of the Ma’rifa in helping clients who experience non-positivistic difficulties in their
lives and to confirm the way of handling the Ma’rifa as a spiritual counseling model. That is what the Ma’rifa does, which begins by asking the client to convey his life problems and encourages him to reflect on past mistakes. Then the client is asked to repent, commit to doing good deeds, and want to carry out the practice suggested by the Ma’rifa. This stage generates some problems of non-positivistic life that are successfully solved. The perspective of spiritual counseling guidance states that efforts to handle life problems by involving religious beliefs held by the Ma’rifa in helping non-positivistic clients’ life problems are one model of spiritual counseling. Thus the results of this study contribute to
the development of spiritual counseling, especially in the Muslim community.
