This work examines the relationship between religious belief and economic practice in an Islamic community by focusing on Sufi groups (Naqsabandi-Kholidiyah and Syadziliyah) in the Banyumas region of Central Java, Indonesia. This work demonstrates that Sufi group not only promotes religious individualism of mystical exercise but also a collective spirit of worldly-oriented activities. Through strong ties among their disciples, Sufi groups create a network for cultivating entrepreneurial skills and political influence. At the heart of the argument is recognition of religious devotion and its effect on shaping socio-cultural and socio-economic distinction within an Islamic community in Java, Indonesia.
