This study used a descriptive qualitative method to describe the behavior of pilgrimage to the graves of the wali’s by the Mandarese community by observing the graves of Syekh Abdul Mannan, Syekh Abdurrahim Kamaluddin and Imam Lapeo. Data were collected using interview and observation methods, as well as conducting a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) in Majene. The research was conducted from March to October 2020. The results of the study found that the Mandarese society always made pilgrimages to the tomb of Syekh Abdul Mannan (as the first propagator of Islam in the Banggae area), the tomb of Syekh Abdurrahim Kamaluddin (as the first spreader of Islam in the Binuang-Tinambung area), and the tomb of Imam Lapeo (Mandarese Islamic preacher who is believed to have karamah) because the Mandarnese society made the tomb as religious tourism, the grave as a place where prayers are answered, a place to receive blessings, and also as a place to study Islamic history in the Mandarnese region.Artikel ini menyajikan hasil penelitian tentang fenomena ziarah makam wali dalam masyarakat Mandar.
