Pelajar di Pondok Pesantren melaksanakan ikhtiar batin melalui pembacaan doa yang mathur setelah solat maktubah. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui dasar pembacaan doa yang mathur, kegiatan pembacaan doa yang mathur, dan makna dari kegiatan pembacaan doa yang mathur tersebut. Metode penelitian berjenis Field research dengan pendekatan kualitatif. Analisis penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan fenomenologi dengan teori Loewenthal yang membagi 4 aspek yaitu: Behavioral Features (aspek perilaku), Linguistic Features (aspek bahasa), Cognitive Features (aspek kognitif), dan Emotional Features (aspek emosional).
