Meanwhile, we know that the process of Islamization in Indonesia started from the coast, which is a place for shipping traffic and Muslim traders. But, in addition, there is a reciprocal relationship between coastal communities and inland communities.

The still local solid and traditional culture inherent in Indonesian Muslims certainly creates its own uniqueness for the religion of Islam. This can be seen from several religious activities carried out by people in various regions with various local cultures that contain different Islamic elements.

In spreading Islam, Wali Songo approached the traditions and culture of the indigenous people, where at that time they already had the local culture they embraced. Whether there is a religion or not, they continue to survive by the guidelines they already have. Wali Songo is very concerned about the character and nature of the community as the target of da’wah in all its diversity of character and culture.
