Sunan Kalijaga (born Raden Mas Said; 1450ā1513) was one of the "nine saints" of Javanese Islam (Wali Sanga).[1] The "Kalijaga" title was derived from an orchard known as "Kalijaga" in Cirebon. Other accounts suggest that the name derives from his hobby of submerging himself in Kali ("river" in Javanese). Others note that the name Kalijaga derived its nature from the Arabic notion of qadli dzaqa which means "holy leader" in the sultanate.
