This study examines the Islamic’s phenomenon acculturation and local beliefs among the Banjar people. Although Islam entered through political channels and was accepted collectively, the animistic and dynamic traditions of their ancestors remain strong. This situation prompted scholars of the past to Islamize these traditions, especially those influenced by Hinduism-Buddhism. The objective of this research’s to analyze the background, methodology, and systematic writing of the Sanjata Mukmin tafsir book by Husin Qudri. This study is a literature review with sociology as the main approach in the data presentation process. After reviewing the existing literature, this research identified two main findings. First, this book was written as Husin Qudri's effort to Islamize the conservative views of the Banjar community, who still believe in the power of spirits and objects as sources of salvation. Second, the book is divided into 72 interconnected discussions, using the bil-ma'tsur method of interpretation. It’s evident in Husin Qudri's frequent quotations of the Prophet's hadiths that are relevant to the talks he presents. Finally, this research is essential because, in addition to enriching the intellectual heritage of Islamic interpretation, it also provides insights into Nusantara interpretation books that are rarely exposed to the general public.
