The issues that arise regarding the Hajj include those who wait in line for years without being called by the Ministry of Religious Affairs. There is also a strong motivation for some to perform the Hajj multiple times. The research problem consists of two variables: first, why do people go on Hajj repeatedly; second, is it true that the religious experience during Hajj is a factor in the desire to perform Hajj again? This study aims to analyze the motivation of people to perform Hajj repeatedly in the holy land from the perspective of religious psychology (religious consciousness). The method used in this study is qualitative, a field study with interview and documentation methods. The respondents in this study are all pilgrims who have performed Hajj at least twice and reside in Yogyakarta and its surroundings. The results of this study prove that there is an influence of understanding regarding the legal conclusions on religious orders about performing Hajj. It is believed that performing Hajj once in a lifetime is obligatory, while performing it multiple times is considered sunnah and therefore unlimited. Secondly, the religious experiences encountered during the Hajj rituals in the holy land of Mecca. These personal and spiritual religious experiences vary among pilgrims. The differences are due to the place, time, atmosphere, health conditions of the pilgrims, and the quality of understanding of religious teachings. Among the religious experiences that tend to raise religious awareness can take the form of specificity, emotion, amazement, and also helplessness, leading to self-introspection, which further impacts the growth of personal and social holiness. Lastly, the task given by an institution or another person is believed to be a call from Allah, as not everyone gets the opportunity to perform Hajj. The Hajj culture in Indonesia is not just a tradition or ritual but an enhancement of Islamic culture that has implications for Islamic culture. It is known that 80-100% of Indonesians are motivated to perform Hajj.

The purpose of this study has objectives, namely (1) to know the concept of essence and existence from the perspective of Ibn Arabi. (2) to know the concept of essence and existence of Mulla Sadra's perspective. (3) to know the meeting point and the point of difference in the concept of essence and existence of both. The method used to explore this literature study by examining the work of the two figures, namely Ibn Arabi's work entitled “Futûhât al-Makkiyah” with Mulla Sadra's work entitled “Al-Asfar al-Arbaà” as a primary source and several related articles relevant to the topic discussed with qualitative descriptive analysis. The results of this study are three, namely (1) according to Ibn Arabi (1165-1240 AD), existence is the form of essence, so that existence precedes essence. So, if something has existence then something has essence. But the opposite also applies. (2) According to Mulla Sadra, essence is the overall picture of reality or objects that exist in the mind; and existence is the objective reality outside the mind. (3) The concepts of essence and existence according to Ibn Arabi and Mulla Sadra have common ground in defining the concepts of essence and existence and also in comparing the concepts of essence and existence.
