This phenomenon is also seen in the area of Masjid Gedhe Mataram Kotagede, Yogyakarta. This research aims to describe the friction between Kejawen Islam and Puritan Islam in the area of Masjid Gedhe Mataram Kotagede Yogyakarta. This is a case study research with data collection techniques in the form of observation and interviews. Observations focused on the visitor behavior of Masjid Gedhe Mataram Kotagede, the behavior of pilgrims at the Kotagede Mataram Kings Cemetery, and the atmosphere around the complex of Masjid Gedhe Mataram Kotagede. While the interview was conducted to find out the friction that occurred in the complex of Masjid Gede Mataram Kotagede Yogyakarta. The results indicate two things, namely: (1) The friction between Kejawen Islam and Puritan Islam in the area of Masjid Gedhe Mataram Kotagede occurs because of differences in interests and differences in views between the manager of Masjid Gedhe Mataram Kotagede and the manager of tombs’ kings; (2) Activities carried out by visitors at Masjid Gedhe Mataram Kotagede are sholat, dhikr, itikaf, and attending science assemblies, while activities carried out by pilgrims at the Tombs of Kotagede Mataram Kings are reading tahlil, burning incense, doing meditation.
