The practice of Islam in the archipelago is the result of the dialectic of the Shari'a text with the realities of the local culture. It can be said that Islam and culture are entities that cannot be denied each other. It became a starting point for Muhammad Qoyyim Ya'qub to interpret contextually that is integrated with aspects of locality. The song Qur'any is a form of Qoyyim's actualization of exploring and grounding the values of the Qur'an in the cultural framework of the archipelago. So, this article reveals; 1) the extent to which Muhammad Qoyyim Ya'qub reveals the locality dimension in his commentary; Song Qur’any, and 2) what strategy is used to explore the reading of the Qur'an.

Lyric Poetry is the chosen medium to assist in the process of transmitting the messages of the Qur'an
